Kirsten Dunst is set to star in “The Housemaid‘s Secret” alongside Sydney Sweeney.

The film is the follow-up to 2025’s box office hit “The Housemaid,” which has generated nearly $400 million to date. Based on Freida McFadden’s bestselling novel, the twisted story follows Sweeney as Millie, a young woman with a mysterious past who is hired as the live-in maid for a wealthy family with a dark secret. In the sequel, Millie returns, and per the plot description, she takes a job “keeping house for a woman she’s never allowed to see — only to discover the truth behind the locked door that threatens to expose secrets far darker than her own.”
