Paul Feig‘s highest-grossing movie of all time, The Housemaid, will begin streaming on Starz on April 1, following its theatrical run. The film arrived on premium digital and premium video on demand on February 3, 46 days after it premiered on Dec. 19.
Starring Sydney Sweeney and Amanda Seyfried, Feig’s film adaptation of Freida McFadden’s best-selling novel, will debut on the Starz app and all Starz streaming and on-demand platforms.
Directed by Feig, the psychological thriller is set in a world where perfection is an illusion, and nothing is as it seems. Attempting to escape her troubled past, Millie (Sweeney) takes a job as a live-in housemaid for the wealthy Nina Winchester (Seyfried). What initially appears to be a fresh start soon unravels into a dangerous game of secrets, manipulation, and shifting power dynamics. Behind the polished facade of the Winchester home lies a web of shocking twists that keeps audiences guessing until the very end.
In addition to Sweeney and Seyfried, the film stars Brandon Sklenar (It Ends With Us, 1923) Michele Morrone (Another Simple Favor, Subservience), and Elizabeth Perkins (This is Us, Weeds).
Early on, the pic surpassed Feig’s Bridesmaids as his highest-grossing movie. To date, it has grossed more than $394M worldwide.
Amid its big box office success, Lionsgate has greenlit a Housemaid sequel and is eyeing a 2026 production start. The Housemaid’s Secret, based on the second novel in McFadden’s bestselling trilogy, has Sweeney eyeing to return to star and exec produce, and co-star Michele Morrone also looking to reprise.
The Housemaid joins Starz’s growing movie slate, alongside Now You See Me: Now You Don’t, Good Fortune and The Long Walk, all streaming exclusively on the platform, along with the final season of Outlander, which continues to roll out every Friday throughout the month.
