Amanda Seyfried makes new promise to ‘The Housemaid’ fans
Amanda Seyfried has given fans of The Housemaid fresh reason to stay hopeful, suggesting her character may not be done with the story just yet.
While attending the 2026 Palm Springs International Film Festival on Saturday, 3 January, the actress shared that she fully expects a sequel to happen, and believes she’ll be part of it in some way.
Speaking to Variety during the event, where she was celebrating her separate 2025 release The Testament of Ann Lee, Seyfried made it clear she’s keen to return, even if only briefly.
“No one’s said anything about number 2, but I guarantee there will be number 2. And I almost guarantee that I’m gonna be some small cameo in it,” she said.
The Housemaid, released on 19 December, stars Sydney Sweeney as Millie Calloway, a woman who lies on her CV to secure a live-in nanny job with a wealthy family.
Seyfried plays Nina Winchester, the polished but unsettling matriarch of the household.
The psychological thriller pulls Millie into what the synopsis describes as “a sexy, seductive game of secrets and power, with shocking twists that keep you guessing to the end.”
Directed by Paul Feig, the film is based on Freida McFadden’s 2022 novel, which already has two follow-up books, The Housemaid’s Secret and The Housemaid Is Watching.
Seyfried hinted that the second story focuses on Millie entering a new household, with plenty still unfolding around Enzo, played by Michele Morrone.
While discussing Nina’s future, Seyfried admitted she’s particularly curious to see how the dynamic continues, adding that she would “jump the f— back into that” role.
Sydney Sweeney has also expressed enthusiasm about returning.
The actress recently said she “would love to” reprise Millie, sharing how deeply she connected with the books and the character.
She described Millie as “spicy” and a fighter who stands her ground.
Beyond the screen, Seyfried has spoken warmly about working with Sweeney, noting she feels protective of her co-star amid intense public attention.
With both leads openly backing a sequel and source material ready to be explored, fans of The Housemaid may not have to wait forever to revisit its twisted world.
Sophie Turner opened up about her complicated feelings toward Game of Thrones and shared why she has stepped away from the show that made her a global star.
The actress, who played Sansa Stark for eight seasons, admitted that she can no longer watch the series.
During an appearance on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, Sophie revealed that even hearing the famous theme song brings back intense emotions.
She said the music gives her “PTSD” and makes her see the show in a very different way now.
When asked if she ever rewatches Game of Thrones, Sophie clearly said no, explaining that she once watched the first season with her parents, but that did not last long.
“But no, I can’t watch it. I mean, hearing the Game of Thrones theme tune gives me PTSD. I see it totally different,” she shared.
Sophie also spoke briefly about the huge impact the series had on television and fans around the world, even if she personally feels distant from it today.
The actress then turned her focus to future work, teasing her upcoming role as Lara Croft in Amazon’s Tomb Raider series and joked about the intense training she has been doing for months.
Although she avoids rewatching the show, Sophie said she would not completely rule out returning as Sansa Stark.
Jack Osbourne opened up about how his late father Ozzy Osbourne has been visiting the family in their dreams, months after his passing.
The Black Sabbath star died in July at 76 after a heart attack at his home in Buckinghamshire.
Jack said he, his wife and his children have all shared similar dreams where Ozzy is laughing and tells them to stop crying.
Speaking to Billy Morrison on SiriusXM, he said, “We all keep having dreams about him. In the dreams, he is laughing.”
“And he is saying, ‘Just stop f***ing crying.’ He’s laughing every time. Me and my wife, my daughters, all the same thing. We keep seeing him in our dreams, laughing.”
Morrison, a close friend of Ozzy, also shared that he saw the singer in a dream and that “He’s good, Jack. He’s not in pain.”
Jack, 40, who has four children, talked about his father’s last months.
Ozzy finished his farewell Black Sabbath concert, wrote a book, did charity work, and completed two documentaries.
However, Jack called his father’s sudden death a shock and said he is still trying to process it nearly four months later.
