Psychological thriller starring Sydney Sweeney and Amanda Seyfried, based on the 2022 novel by Freida McFadden. Millie (Sweeney) – a woman with a troubled past – accepts a live‑in housemaid job with the affluent Winchester family (Seyfried, Brandon Sklenar & Indiana Elle), hoping for a fresh start. But the glamorous façade of the Winchester mansion conceals twisted secrets. As Millie becomes increasingly entangled in the household’s dynamics, she realises the family’s perfection is built on lies, manipulation and danger — and that her own past may not be her worst problem.
