The movie is unnerving and has a stellar cast, including Sydney Sweeney, Amanda Seyfried, Michele Morrone, and Brandon Sklenar. Lionsgate has been experiencing a significant box office slump, with at least seven of their consecutive films failing financially. The movies include Borderlands, Megalopis, and Never Let Go.

More about the film
The Housemaid is therefore expected to break Lionsgate’s curse of landing consecutive flops. The movie was made on a reported budget of $35 million. Thus, the horror thriller has a break-even target of $87.5 million, which would be easier if the film had been released overseas.
The story follows Millie (Sydney Sweeney), a woman trying to outrun her troubled past, as she accepts a live-in housemaid position with the wealthy Nina (Amanda Seyfried) and her husband, Andrew Winchester (Brandon Sklenar). What initially seems like the perfect fresh start soon spirals into something far more dangerous—a seductive game of secrets, scandal, and shifting power dynamics. Behind the Winchesters’ closed doors lies a maze of shocking twists that keeps you guessing until the very end. The Housemaid was released on December 19.
