The Housemaid comes to Starz
Wednesday April 1, 2026.
When the gates of Nina and Andrew Winchester’s impeccably lavish home first swing open at the start of THE HOUSEMAID, no one can possibly imagine what they’re in for inside. Certainly not the newly hired housemaid Millie Calloway who aspires to her dream job in the lap of luxury. Nor can audiences, who will find themselves on a wildly entertaining, super sexy, and insanely fun thriller through extremes of wealth, seduction, gossip, betrayal, and stone-cold payback that relentlessly begs the question of just who is manipulating whom. The result? A twisted, stylish, and irresistibly watchable thriller of social dynamics so slippery you can’t stop guessing at who will come out on top.
The roller coaster starts as down-on-her-luck Millie, desperate to escape her past, sets out to serve the perfectionist Winchesters. But just beyond the storybook facade and mouthwatering décor of the Winchester home, all is not as it appears. The minute Millie moves into her cozy attic room, what seemed charming turns increasingly alarming. Nina becomes a demanding taskmaster. And meanwhile, the neighbors keep chattering about dark secrets and spicy scandals. Yet no matter the rumors, nothing could begin to hint at what is really going on behind these closed doors.
Based on the Freida McFadden book of the same name that topped global bestseller lists and dropped jaws with its shock twists, director Paul Feig builds a world of picture-perfect elegance atop so many layers of deceit they can only come crashing down spectacularly. Feig is renowned for the female-led classics like the Oscar®-nominated Bridesmaids (Original Screenplay and Supporting Actress, 2011). Here, he turns the tables on the bleak revenge thriller with a sumptuous beauty and all-out sense of entertainment that is nevertheless sharply pointed.
Driving those twists is a trio of powerhouse performances from Sydney Sweeney, Amanda Seyfried, and Brandon Sklenar. Sweeney and Seyfried, who also serve as executive producers, keep audiences scrambling as the two mirror-image women from vastly different class situations, while Sklenar explores the far limits of blinding charm. Executive producer Carly Elter notes that the movie’s “excitement lies in the shifting nature of their characters — each at some point plays victim, villain, bystander, and hero, with the full secrets of who they truly are revealed only at the last minute.”
