The Housemaid Sequel: Sydney Sweeney is back and her new job has a disturbing rule, but will Amanda Seyfried return?

Sydney Sweeney is back at work as Millie Calloway, and a wealthy household is waiting for her. New set photos and videos show the actress filming The Housemaid's Secret alongside Michele Morrone, who returns as Enzo. The footage offers an early glimpse of the sequel to The Housemaid, Paul Feig's adaptation of Freida McFadden's bestselling thriller. Millie's next job comes with an unsettling condition: she must keep house for a woman she is never allowed to see. For anyone familiar with her first employers, an apparently comfortable home is hardly a promise of safety.

What do The Housemaid sequel set videos reveal?

The circulated footage shows Sweeney and Morrone returning to their roles. ScreenRant reported the images and videos as filming gets underway.

Fans have something beyond casting announcements to examine. The material places Millie and Enzo back together, although it does not establish how their relationship develops.


Set footage should not be mistaken for a trailer. Glimpses cannot explain which scenes will survive the edit or how they fit into the story.

What is The Housemaid's Secret about?

Millie takes a housekeeping job with the Garricks, another wealthy couple with a private life. Douglas Garrick's wife, Wendy, remains out of sight. Millie suspects that Wendy is being abused and becomes determined to help her.

The premise brings Millie back into a household where appearances conceal danger. Her employers have secrets, but so does she. McFadden's second novel supplies the source material. Readers will recognise the setup, although the film may change details during adaptation.

Who joins Sydney Sweeney in The Housemaid's Secret?

Kirsten Dunst plays Wendy Garrick. Paul Anthony Kelly portrays her husband, Douglas. Brittany Snow also joins the cast. Morrone returns as Enzo, keeping a connection to the first film alongside Sweeney's Millie.

Amanda Seyfried's possible return requires caution. She has expressed interest in a cameo as Nina Winchester, but that does not amount to confirmation that she will appear. The sequel shifts its attention to the Garricks rather than continuing with the household.

Who is directing The Housemaid sequel?

Paul Feig returns to direct. Rebecca Sonnenshine, who adapted the first movie, is writing the screenplay. McFadden wrote the novels behind the franchise. Her role as the source author should not be confused with a screenplay credit.

The first film's success gave Lionsgate reason to continue Millie's story. The sequel has to turn that interest into another thriller.
