Will The Housemaid Get A Sequel? Sydney Sweeney And The Director Weigh In

by

Paul Feig’s new movie, The Housemaid, came out this weekend. It’s still early to tell if it will be one of Amanda Seyfried’s most popular films, but it’s already receiving a lot of positive attention online. Critics have given The Housemaid good reviews, and readers of the original Freida McFadden book are hoping the movie’s success will lead to adaptations of the sequels. Both Sydney Sweeney and Paul Feig have said they’d be interested in continuing the story as a film series.

While competing with the blockbuster Avatar 3 in theaters, The Housemaid delivered a completely different kind of movie experience. The film is so engaging that viewers are reacting strongly while watching, and I hope we get to see the story continue in future sequels. In a recent interview with Variety, Sydney Sweeney shared her enthusiasm for potentially making more Housemaid movies, stating:

We’re eager to create more content for our fantastic community of book fans, and we’d love to make another movie!

She’s right. McFadden’s books have become incredibly popular since The Housemaid was published in 2022. The positive reception to the movie adaptation confirmed what fans already knew, and many are hoping the two sequel novels will also be made into films. The star of Euphoria (available on HBO Max) is interested in returning for the role, but it remains to be seen if the studio will approve another movie.

During the same interview, director Paul Feig also talked about the possibility of a sequel to The Housemaid. He expressed interest in directing it, suggesting he’d be happy to return for a follow-up movie.

Let’s just hope this one does well because we’re ready to do another one.

The people involved with The Housemaid seem eager to turn it into a series of films. However, whether or not a sequel gets made depends on how well the movie does in theaters. It’s still uncertain if it will happen, and if positive online buzz will convince the studio to move forward with more installments.

The movie The Housemaid differs from the original book, and viewers are wondering what changes might be made in a potential sequel. In an interview with Today, Sydney Sweeney discussed what she’d like to see happen in a follow-up film, stating:

I want Nina to come back into her life. I feel like Millie really needs Nina.

Amanda Seyfried and Sydney Sweeney had a strong connection both on screen in The Housemaid and while promoting the film, so it’s not surprising Sydney Sweeney hopes for more scenes with Amanda in a potential sequel.
