The Story

In The Housemaid, Sweeney plays Millie, a young woman desperate to escape her troubled past. She accepts a live-in position working for wealthy couple Nina (Seyfried) and Andrew Winchester (Sklenar). At first, the job feels like a dream come true. But behind the polished exterior of the Winchester household lurks something far darker.

What starts as domestic perfection quickly spirals into a seductive and dangerous game filled with secrets, scandal, and shifting power. As Millie becomes entangled in the couple’s web, shocking twists emerge that promise to keep audiences on edge until the final reveal.
