Sydney Sweeney (Anyone But You<\/a>,\u00a0Madame Web), Amanda Seyfried (Mean Girls,\u00a0Jennifer\u2019s Body<\/a>), Brandon Sklenar (It Ends With Us, 1923), and Michele Morrone (365 Days, Subservience) star in the \u201csexy\u201d psychological thriller\u00a0The Housemaid\u00a0for Lionsgate and director Paul Feig, whose credits include\u00a0Bridesmaids, Ghostbusters,\u00a0and\u00a0A Simple Favor.\u00a0Lionsgate will be releasing the film\u00a0on\u00a0December 19th \u2013 and\u00a0today,\u00a0Lionsgate has unveiled a new trailer for the film! You can check it out in the embed above.<\/p>\n

Based on the novel by Freida McFadden, the film has the following synopsis:\u00a0In\u00a0The Housemaid, Millie (Sydney Sweeney) is a struggling young woman who is relieved to get a fresh start as a housemaid to Nina (Amanda Seyfried) and Andrew (Brandon Sklenar), an upscale, wealthy couple. She soon learns that the family\u2019s secrets are far more dangerous than her own.\u00a0Rebecca Sonnenshine wrote the screenplay adaptation. Don\u2019t like that synopsis and want another one? Here you go: The Housemaid is a wildly entertaining thriller starring Sydney Sweeney and Amanda Seyfried, based on the best-selling book. From director Paul Feig, the film plunges audiences into a twisted world where perfection is an illusion, and nothing is as it seems. Trying to escape her past, Millie (Sweeney) accepts a job as a live-in housemaid for the wealthy Nina (Seyfried) and Andrew Winchester (Sklenar). But what begins as a dream job quickly unravels into something far more dangerous \u2014 a sexy, seductive game of secrets, scandal, and power. Behind the Winchesters\u2019 closed doors lies a world of shocking twists that will leave you guessing until the very end.<\/p>\n

Feig is producing the film with Todd Lieberman, Carly Kleinbart Elter, and Laura Fischer. Sweeney, Seyfried, and McFadden serve as executive producers with Alex Young. This one is coming our way from Lionsgate, Media Capital Technologies, Hidden Pictures, and Pretty Dangerous Pictures.<\/p>\n

Lionsgate Motion Picture Group co-president Erin Westerman provided the following statement when the project was first announced: \u201cPart of the fun of the book was imagining the cast while we read it, and Sydney Sweeney and Amanda Seyfried are perfect for Millie and Nina \u2014 they\u2019re both mysterious, nuanced, and incredibly skilled at becoming characters who don\u2019t reveal everything right away. We\u2019re thrilled to team them with Paul Feig, who we worked with on\u00a0A Simple Favor\u00a0and its sequel, and has a proven track record of developing stories with dynamic female leads.\u201c Adam Fogelson, Lionsgate Motion Picture Group chair, added: \u201cI\u2019m thrilled to have\u00a0The Housemaid\u00a0join our upcoming slate. A great filmmaker and a great cast with a great script from a great book is a terrific place to start. My prior work experiences with Paul and Amanda have been nothing short of spectacular, and Sydney is as talented and compelling as can be.\u201c<\/p>\n

If\u00a0The Housemaid\u00a0does well at the box office in December, there\u2019s franchise potential here, as the novel has already received multiple follow-ups:\u00a0The Housemaid\u2019s Secret, The Housemaid\u2019s Wedding,\u00a0and\u00a0The Housemaid is Watching.<\/p>\n

I was already sold on The Housemaid a long time ago. I will be watching the movie for sure. If you weren\u2019t sold on the movie yet, let us know, did the new trailer convince you to check it out?<\/p>\n
