‘The Housemaid’ Stage Play Adaptation in the Works From Lionsgate

Lionsgate is expanding The Housemaid franchise by developing a live stage play based on Freida McFadden’s hit novel and its 2025 film version. The production will be written by Bekah Brunstetter, known for her work on the musical adaptation of The Notebook. Producers highlight that the story’s claustrophobic setting and suspenseful plot make it an ideal fit for an intimate theatrical experience. This announcement follows the success of the movie starring Sydney Sweeney and comes as a sequel film is already in the works. The move aligns with the studio's broader strategy to transform its popular intellectual property into diverse entertainment formats. Though the project is officially in development, a specific premiere date for the stage show has not yet been set.
