From director Paul Feig (Ghostbusters, A Simple Favor), discover what lies behind close doors in The Housemaid with the featurette below.
“I always describe it as a Nancy Meyers movie that’s gone horribly wrong,” says Feig, referring to the filmmaker known for movies like The Holiday and What Women Want. “The fun comes from how extreme it gets.”
Sydney Sweeney (Immaculate) and Amanda Seyfried (Jennifer’s Body) star in the salacious thriller, in theaters December 19 via Lionsgate.
In the film, Millie, trying to escape her past, accepts a position as a live-in housemaid for a wealthy couple. But what begins as a dream job quickly unravels into something far more dangerous — a sexy, seductive game of secrets, scandal, and power.
Based on Freida McFadden‘s 2022 bestselling novel of the same name, the script is written by Rebecca Sonnenshine (“The Boys,” “The Vampire Diaries”).
Brandon Sklenar (Drop), Michele Morrone (Another Simple Favor), and Elizabeth Perkins (“Weeds”) round out the cast.
Feig produces with Todd Lieberman (The Fighter, Warm Bodies) and Laura Fischer.
“You’re gonna have a deliciously fun, insane time,” Feig promises.
