Sydney Sweeney's Upcoming Film "Housemaid's Secret" Set for December 2027 Release

Sydney Sweeney's highly anticipated film, Housemaid's Secret, is scheduled to hit theaters on December 17, 2027.

Directed by Paul Feig, this film serves as a sequel to the successful thriller, The Housemaid.

Originally, The Housemaid was a commercial success, grossing nearly $400 million worldwide against a budget of $35 million. It opened with a modest $19 million but continued to attract audiences throughout the holiday season.

Lionsgate, the studio behind this intense R-rated thriller, is strategically releasing the film during the busy Christmas season. Housemaid's Secret will debut on the same day as Avengers: Secret Wars and Lord of the Rings: The Hunt for Gollum.

Sweeney will reprise her role alongside Michele Morrone, who also starred in the original film. Additionally, Kirsten Dunst is joining the cast.

Based on Freida McFadden's bestselling novel, the sequel follows Sweeney's character, Millie, who was initially hired as a live-in maid for a wealthy family with a dark secret. In this new installment, she takes on a job "keeping house for a woman she's never allowed to see."

Filming for Housemaid's Secret is set to begin by the end of this year. Feig returns to direct, alongside screenwriter Rebecca Sonnenshine, who adapted the first novel. Feig is also producing the film with Todd Lieberman of Hidden Pictures, Laura Fischer of Pretty Dangerous, and Sweeney through Fifty-Fifty Films.

Emma Bunton and Mel B 'reunited in South Korea'
Emma Bunton and Mel B reunited in November to take part in a reality TV show. The 49-year-old pop star and Mel secretly flew to Seoul, South Korea, in late 2024, when they sang alongside K-pop idols for a TV show. A source told The Sun newspaper: "A Spice Girls reunion is a way off. "So having Emma and Mel back on stage singing a Spice Girls song together might be the closest fans get to a comeback, even though it will be with K-pop stars rather than Geri Horner, Melanie C and Victoria Beckham. "They flew to South Korea at the end of last year and were on set for quite a few days as they battled it out with other pop veterans. "With them alone on board, it is a big show. But there’s also Boy George and loads of other chart-topping stars, which will be enough to encourage people to tune in." The reality show will air on Apple TV and will also feature the likes of Megan Thee Stallion and Psy, the 'Gangnam Style' singer. Meanwhile, Melanie recently revealed that she's ready to "start planning" a Spice Girls reunion. The 51-year-old singer would love to reunite with her bandmates to mark the 30th anniversary of 'Wannabe', the group's 1996 hit single. Melanie told Rebecca Judd On Apple Music 1: "There has to be something befitting of 30 years since ‘Wannabe’. "Once a Spice Girl, always a Spice Girl. We all feel like that, but we now are getting together because we know if we're going to do anything, we have to start planning things to get things right. "We have to start making the plans right now and putting them into action. So fingers crossed."
