The film experienced a resurgence on its second weekend, climbing a couple of ranks to remain among the top 5 performing movie titles in the country during the holidays. The mystery thriller has found its place in the Hollywood box office in a highly competitive market, alongside blockbuster movies like <a href=\"https:\/\/www.koimoi.com\/box-office\/avatar-fire-and-ash-worldwide-box-office-beats-mission-impossible-the-final-reckoning-crosses-600m-breaks-into-2025s-top-10\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Avatar: Fire and Ash<\/a> and Zootopia 2.<\/p>\n<p>The Housemaid Box Office Performance<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The Housemaid currently stands at $36.2 million in its US box office haul. The overseas contribution remains minimal due to a limited theatrical release worldwide, resulting in a global total of around $36.4 million, according to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.boxofficemojo.com\/title\/tt27543632\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Box Office Mojo<\/a>. All of this comes against a production budget of $35 million.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The Housemaid Box Office Summary<\/p>\n<p>North America \u2013 $36.2 million<br \/>\nInternational \u2013 $168,000<br \/>\nTotal \u2013 $36.4 million<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The Housemaid came in with strong critical praise before it opened in theaters on December 19 alongside James Cameron\u2019s Avatar: Fire and Ash. Even with such heavyweight competition, the film pulled a strong $8 million from 3,015 theaters in the US, with an average of $2,659 per screen. It wrapped its opening weekend with $19 million and a per-screen average of $6,305, finishing at number three on the weekend charts, behind Avatar: Fire and Ash and Angel Studios\u2019 faith-driven animation David. The positioning spoke volumes about interest and curiosity around this thriller.<\/p>\n<p>Christmas Week Surge With Big Gains On Boxing Day<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The Christmas week run added more power to the story. The film earned $3.4 million on Monday and $3.7 million on Tuesday with an 8.8% surge. Wednesday dipped to $1.4 million, with a 60.8% decline, giving fans a brief scare.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">However, Christmas Day saw a strong comeback, with $3.5 million and a significant 141.4% surge on Thursday. Boxing Day pushed it even further, delivering $5.2 million from 3,042 theaters, marking a 48.5% rise and only a slight 35.2% dip when compared to opening day earnings. The film clearly refuses to slow down.<\/p>\n<p>Projected $12\u2013$15 Million Second Weekend Boost For Sydney Sweeney<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The Housemaid now appears poised for a highly successful second weekend, with projections suggesting a range of $12 million to $15 million. After a year marked by off-screen controversy and disappointing titles like Christy and Eden, this film appears poised to bring a much-needed boost to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.koimoi.com\/box-office\/the-housemaid-north-america-box-office-sydney-sweeney-movie-horror-holds-strong-against-avatar-3-eyes-profitable-holiday-run\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Sydney Sweeney<\/a>\u2019s growing career. Audiences in the US appear fully prepared to continue supporting this run, and the Christmas surge continues to work in her favor.<\/p>\n<p>Here\u2019s the trailer of the movie:<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Note: Box office numbers are based on estimates and various sources.
