Lionsgate’s The Housemaid, with Sydney Sweeney and Amanda Seyfried in the lead, has kicked off 2026 with strong box office momentum. The daily US charts place the film back in the top three, after it surpassed Timothee Chalamet’s Marty Supreme in daily earnings. Only James Cameron’s Avatar: Fire and Ash and Disney’s billion-dollar animated sequel Zootopia 2 stand above it in daily numbers.
Lionsgate Eyes A Major Domestic Milestone
The Housemaid also moves closer to a key studio milestone as its domestic earnings are nearing the $100 million mark, a level no Lionsgate title has reached since The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds & Snakes in 2023.
The Housemaid Box Office Numbers Show Steady Growth
The movie’s current worldwide earnings stand at $77.1 million, as per Box Office Mojo. Domestic collections account for $60.8 million (as on January 1, 2026) from 3,042 theatres across the United States, whereas overseas markets have added $16.3 million (last reported) from 10 regions, including the United Kingdom, Australia, and New Zealand.
