‘The Housemaid’ Crosses $300 Million, Overtaking ‘Anyone but You’ as Sydney Sweeney’s Highest-Grossing Film

“The Housemaid” has sliced through $300 million at the global box office, a major milestone for the mid-budget movie.

So far, the R-rated psychological thriller, starring Sydney Sweeney and Amanda Seyfried, has earned $116 million domestically and a particularly impressive $189.1 million internationally, bringing its global tally to $305 million.

Lionsgate spent just $35 million to produce “The Housemaid,” which means it’ll be wildly profitable for the studio. The film opened ahead of Christmas with a modest $19 million in North America and then remained a draw well into the new year, thanks to positive reviews and word-of-mouth. Last weekend, “The Housemaid” was No. 1 in several overseas territories including the United Kingdom, France, Mexico, Brazil and Spain — a feat considering the film debuted nearly a month ago in those markets. Top-earning territories include the United Kingdom ($36.4 million), France ($33.4 million), Latin America ($26.2 million), Australia and New Zealand ($15.3 million) and Spain ($12.5 million).
