The Box Office PodcastAn Hour With... Paul FeigI’m not thrilled that Lionsgate has already dropped The Housemaid onto PVOD, even if I’ll note that A) it got a now (kinda-sorta) standard 47-day window and B) it’s probably going to lose a bunch of screens and get steamrolled by Wuthering Heights the weekend after next anyway. This was recorded right as Lionsgate announced that the Sydney Sweeney/Amanda Seyfried/Brandon Sklenar-led flick had passed $300 million worldwide, partially on the strength of James Cameron-worthy holds in North America and especially overseas. Considering the decades of conventional wisdom arguing that Hollywood movies for women and/or minori...

Kyle Meredith With...Paul Feig on the Twists, Tones, and Signature Martinis in The HousemaidDirector Paul Feig talks with Kyle Meredith about adapting The Housemaid from Freda McFadden’s bestseller, shaping its sly tonal shift from “fun unsettling” to full-on psychological thriller, and why he ultimately added entire pieces to the story that aren’t in the book. Feig digs into the dual-POV structure, explains his aversion to lazy voiceover, and breaks down how the film balances an hour of questions with an hour of answers. He also gets into building nuanced female-led stories (from Bridesmaids to Ghostbusters to A Simple Favor), collaborating with a wildly good-looking cast, and letting actors define their characte...

The Parting Shot with H.

That was a huge thing to hear from the author.” The film follows Millie (Sydney Sweeney), a live-in maid for Nina (Amanda Seyfried), who begin...
