The 2025 film The Housemaid is a psychological thriller directed by Paul Feig (known for A Simple Favor) and adapted from the bestselling 2022 novel by Freida McFadden. The movie stars Sydney Sweeney as Millie Calloway, a young woman with a troubled past who is desperate for a fresh start, and Amanda Seyfried as Nina Winchester. Down on her luck, Millie accepts a live-in housemaid position for the wealthy and seemingly perfect Winchester family, which also includes Nina's charming husband, Andrew (played by Brandon Sklenar).
What begins as a dream opportunity quickly unravels as Millie discovers the Winchesters' luxurious life hides dark, deeply disturbing secrets. Millie is initially wary of Nina's erratic behavior, which appears to be fueled by instability, and finds herself growing closer to Andrew, who presents himself as a victim of a difficult marriage. However, the narrative is packed with shocking twists that expose a seductive and dangerous game of manipulation and power, revealing that the true danger in the household is far more complex than Millie ever imagined.
