Lionsgate has released a new red-band trailer for The Housemaid, director Paul Feig’s adaptation of Frieda McFadden\u2019s 2022 novel of the same name starring Sydney Sweeney, Amanda Seyfried and Brandon Sklenar.<\/p>\n
The movie follows Millie (Sweeney), a young woman recently released from prison who manages to secure a job\u00a0as a housekeeper for a wealthy family. Millie works to gain the family’s trust and becomes closer to the married couple (Seyfried and Sklenar), but soon begins to suspect that some dark secrets may be hiding beneath the facade of happiness and decadence.\u00a0<\/p>\n
If you know anything about the book, you may be aware that Millie might just be hiding a few secrets of her own.<\/p>\n
Though there are no major spoilers, this trailer definitely reveals a little more about the plot, and while the violence is kept to a minimum (there is some blood), it’s pretty free with the F-bombs.<\/p>\n
Feig and the film\u2019s stars shared the first footage from the movie earlier this year during CinemaCon.<\/p>\n
\u201cTension and scares and comedy are so wrapped together,\u201d Feig explained about why he was drawn to helming a thriller despite being known for comedy projects. \u201cIt was a dream come true.\u201d <\/p>\n
Sweeney added. \u201cI\u2019m a big book lover \u2014 I love reading books. I could not put it down. I ended up reading all three in one week. There\u2019s characters that are flawed, and they are messy.\u201d<\/p>\n
