Sydney Sweeney & Amanda Seyfried ‘The Housemaid’ From Paul Feig Sets Christmas 2025 Release

Lionsgate’s has counterprogramming to next holiday season’s Avatar: Fire & Ash and that’s their thriller The Housemaid starring Sydney Sweeney and Amanda Seyfried. The pic will come out on Christmas Day.

The movie also stars Brandon Sklenar, and as we announced previously, 365 Days Italian actor Michele Morrone.

Based on the Freida McFadden novel and adapted by Rebecca Sonnenshine, the movie follows Millie (Sweeney) is a struggling young woman who is relieved to get a fresh start as a housemaid to Nina (Seyfried) and Andrew (Sklenar), an upscale, wealthy couple. She soon learns that the family’s secrets are far more dangerous than her own.

The weekend before Christmas next year, Dec. 19, has 20th Century Studios/Disney’s Avatar: Fire & Ash, and untitled Warner Bros movie and untitled SpongeBob Squarepants movie from Paramount.

Christmas Day brings The Housemaid, as well as Amazon MGM Studios’ Sarah’s Oil, an untitled Angel Studios movie and an untitled Universal event feature.

Feig has the Blake Lively-Anna Kendrick reteam at Amazon MGM Studios, A Simple Favor 2. That sequel isn’t scheduled to get a theatrical release like its predecessor. No drop date on Prime Video has been scheduled for A Simple Favor 2. Lionsgate originally released Feig’s A Simple Favor in 2018, the black comedy grossing $53.5M domestic and over $97M worldwide.

Not a book man these days, but Sweeney is enough for my interest, the rest seals the deal.

I'm pretty sure Sweeney will be the weakest part of this, like most of the time

Kind of crazy, Variety reported the other day that The Last Mrs. Parrish is going into production, to be directed by Robert Zemeckis and starring J Lo and Nikolaj Coster-Waldau.

https://variety.com/2025/film/news/n...ay-1236512153/

The Last Mrs. Parrish was published five years before The Housemaid, and it's almost the exact same book. Same plot, same twists, all of it.

The Housemaid will obviously beat it to the screen, but I imagine when The Last Mrs. Parrish finally comes out, audiences will be like "wait, didn't we just see this?" Should be interesting.

[John1701D]

I read both and they are super similar but definitely not exactly the same twists. They were both good but I enjoyed Housemaid more.

Probably the most overrated "actress" working right now.

This looks brutal.

It seems the generic cat lady movie tht could be released by Netflix.
The actors are hot, the plot predictable as hell and that's it.
