Los Angeles, California – Sydney Sweeney‘s hit movie, The Housemaid, is heading to the stage as its film sequel is underway!
The juicy psychological thriller, based on the novel by Freida McFadden, is being developed for the stage, per Variety.
Melting Pot – a British company led by producers Simon Friend and Hanna Osmolska and playwright Bekah Brunstetter – will spearhead the stage adaptation, though a production timeline is still undisclosed.

Erin Westerman, the president of Lionsgate, shared with Variety in March, “It is a privilege to bring The Housemaid’s next chapter to the screen with Kirsten Dunst.
Westerman called the Bring It On star an “icon,” adding, “Her career reflects extraordinary range and fearlessness. Opposite the ever-magnetic Sydney Sweeney, she will be an electrifying force in a world where nothing is ever quite as it seems.”
The 2025 flick, which also starred Amanda Seyfried and Brandon Sklenar, was a sleeper success and earned $400 million at the global box office.
