The film is based on Freida McFadden\u2019s thriller novel, and it follows a young woman who decides to become a live-in maid to a distrustful, wealthy family.

However, now, Seyfried has spoken about watching her new movie with co-star Sydney Sweeney, and I really wish I could have been at this watch party.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">As someone who read Freida McFadden\u2019s best-selling novel, it was a real page-turner trying to find out the true intentions of the wealthy, but suspicious Winchesters. With that in mind, I assumed the <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.yahoo.com\/entertainment\/upcoming-movies-2025-movie-release-130453990.html\" data-ylk=\"slk:2025 movie release;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas;outcm:mb_qualified_link;_E:mb_qualified_link;ct:story;\" class=\"link  yahoo-link\"><u>2025 movie release<\/u><\/a> would keep me on the edge of my seat.

I have this huge tentpole movie coming out on Christmas Day, with Sydney Sweeney, and also Ann Lee. I don\u2019t know how to explain The Housemaid, but we watched it the other night and I haven\u2019t had that much fun in a theater \u2014 I don\u2019t know the last time I laughed that much. And it was my own movie!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Laughing? Wow, how I wish I could have been at the two co-stars\u2019 watch party. Considering how many stars don\u2019t like watching their own stuff, it\u2019s clear Seyfried truly enjoyed watching the bizarre twists and Paul Feig\u2019s vision playing out on the big screen. And as <em>The Housemaid<\/em> has gotten the <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.yahoo.com\/entertainment\/sydney-sweeneys-latest-life-features-205001931.html\" data-ylk=\"slk:Jennifer\u2019s Body actress to pal around with Sweeney;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas;outcm:mb_qualified_link;_E:mb_qualified_link;ct:story;\" class=\"link  yahoo-link\"><u><em>Jennifer\u2019s Body<\/em><\/u><u> actress to pal around with Sweeney<\/u><\/a>, who better to watch it with than a new friend who\u2019s shared the same movie-making experience?<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">When I read through Freida McFadden\u2019s novel, laughing was not a reaction I had flipping page after page. My jaw was hitting the floor and my eyes were widening. However, maybe that means that <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.cinemablend.com\/movies\/the-housemaid-movie-adaptation-what-we-know-freida-mcfadden\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:The Housemaid movie adaptation;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \"><em>The Housemaid<\/em> movie adaptation<\/a> could have a campy quality to it that makes a lot of thrillers fun. Like watching Sam Raimi\u2019s horror movie <em>Drag Me to Hell, <\/em>which turned out <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.yahoo.com\/entertainment\/18-great-horror-movies-not-100000484.html\" data-ylk=\"slk:not to be so scary;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas;outcm:mb_qualified_link;_E:mb_qualified_link;ct:story;\" class=\"link  yahoo-link\"><u>not to be so scary<\/u><\/a> as advertised, but more cartoonishly fun with its comedy hijinks.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">We already know that the upcoming thriller <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.yahoo.com\/entertainment\/ton-differences-between-housemaid-book-012442424.html\" data-ylk=\"slk:will have one \u201cweirdo\u201d character;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas;outcm:mb_qualified_link;_E:mb_qualified_link;ct:story;\" class=\"link  yahoo-link\"><u>will have one \u201cweirdo\u201d character<\/u><\/a> of Enzo, the Winchesters\u2019 mysterious gardener. But apparently, Amanda Seyfried teased that her character won\u2019t stray too far from her unpredictability as well:<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"mb-4 border-l-2 pl-5 italic text-tertiary\">\n<div class=\"\">\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">I had such a ball making it and playing this wacky nutso character that no one has gotten to really see me do. It\u2019s like a party, that movie. Honestly, I love it so much that I might actually creep out after Christmas dinner and go see it.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Wow, clearly the Emmy winner had a real blast watching her movie that she\u2019s willing to give it a second screening! Now, my curiosity is peaking even more, and I will 100% be giving <em>The Housemaid<\/em> a try if the viewing experience is like \u201ca party.\u201d Just when you thought <em>The Dropout <\/em>was a real game-changer for Amanda Seyfried, seeing the talented actress playing a \u201cwacky nutso character\u201d is enough to add her new movie to my watchlist. And who doesn&#8217;t love a good party, right?<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Based on <em>The Housemaid<\/em> stars\u2019 reactions to watching their own movie, I would have loved to have been a fly on the wall. It sounds like the upcoming Lionsgate movie will be more than just a thriller. I think it will also be an amusing, entertaining adventure worthy of enjoying with many of your pals. You have the chance to see Seyfried\u2019s \u201cparty\u201d of a movie in theaters on Christmas Day.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><em> \u2018 The preceding article may include information circulated by third parties \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n<p><em> \u2018 Some details of this article were extracted from the following source www.yahoo.com \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>When you buy through links on our articles, Future and its syndication partners may earn a commission.
