The Housemaid Trailer Unveils Dark Secrets with Sweeney and Seyfried
So, a brand-new thriller is about to land in theaters, and it’s already creating a buzz. Lionsgate just released the official trailer for The Housemaid , a film directed by Paul Feig and starring Sydney Sweeney alongside Amanda Seyfried. And let me tell you, this one promises to be tense, twisted, and full of hidden dangers.
The story is based on Freida McFadden’s bestselling novel of the same name, which has been devoured by readers worldwide. At the center of the film is Millie, played by Sydney Sweeney. Millie is trying to leave her troubled past behind, including a stint in jail, by starting fresh. She takes a job as a live-in maid for the wealthy Winchester family. On the surface, it looks like an opportunity for stability—room, board, and a paycheck. But as we all know, appearances can be deceiving.
Amanda Seyfried steps into the role of Nina Winchester, the elegant but mysterious wife, while Brandon Sklenar plays her husband Andrew. At first, Millie is drawn into their privileged world, and it seems like she might finally have a shot at a normal life. But soon, cracks begin to show. The more Millie sees, the less perfect this family appears to be. Secrets lurk in every corner of the house, and the so-called dream job quickly spirals into something dark and dangerous.

The trailer teases glimpses of tension, betrayal, and suspense, building the sense that the walls of the Winchester home are holding more than just luxury—they’re hiding scandals that could destroy lives. Sydney Sweeney’s character is positioned as both an outsider and an observer, watching everything unfold from the inside, while Amanda Seyfried brings a chilling energy to her role as Nina.
The adaptation was written by Rebecca Sonnenshine, known for her work on The Boys and The Vampire Diaries , which gives a clue that we can expect a sharp, emotionally charged script. Producers Todd Lieberman, Laura Fischer, and Paul Feig himself are backing the project, which suggests a balance of strong storytelling with Feig’s knack for blending dark tension and just enough humanity to make the characters feel real.
Adding to the intrigue, Michele Morrone and Elizabeth Perkins round out the cast, making sure this thriller has plenty of star power to draw audiences in. And from the early looks, it’s not just about thrills—it’s about psychological mind games, blurred trust, and the haunting question of who really holds the power inside that mansion.
Fans of the novel have been waiting to see how McFadden’s chilling story would translate onto the big screen, and Sydney Sweeney herself admitted she tore through all three books in the series in just one week. Clearly, she’s not only starring in the project but deeply invested in bringing Millie’s messy, flawed, but compelling journey to life.
The Housemaid will hit theaters on December 19, just in time to give the holiday season a sinister twist. If the trailer is any indication, audiences are in for a suspenseful ride where trust is fragile, secrets are deadly, and nothing is as it seems behind the doors of the Winchester estate.
