The Housemaid became a commercial hit grossing nearly $400 million (Dh1.5 billion approximately) globally against a $35 million budget. It opened to a modest $19 million but remained a major draw throughout the holiday season.
Lionsgate, the studio behind the twisted R-rated suspense thriller, is again positioning the film as counter-programming during the busy Christmas corridor. The Housemaid's Secret is currently scheduled to debut on the same day as Avengers: Secret Wars and Lord of the Rings: The Hunt for Gollum.
Sweeney will return alongside Michele Morrone, who also appeared in the first film. Kirsten Dunst is joining the cast.
Based on Freida McFadden's bestselling novel, the sequel picks up as Sweeney's Millie—who was hired in the initial story as the live-in maid for a wealthy family with a dark secret—takes up a job "keeping house for a woman she's never allowed to see".
The Housemaid's Secret will go on floors by the end of this year. Feig is back to direct alongside screenwriter Rebecca Sonnenshine, who adapted the first book. Feig is also producing with Todd Lieberman of Hidden Pictures, Laura Fischer of Pretty Dangerous and Sweeney through Fifty-Fifty Films.
