Los Angeles, March 24 (NationPress) - The talented Hollywood actress Kirsten Dunst, aged 43, has officially joined the cast of 'The Housemaid’s Secret'. She will star alongside Sydney Sweeney, who is 28, in the much-anticipated sequel to 'The Housemaid'.

This new film tells the story of Millie Calloway (portrayed by Sweeney), who fabricates her resume to secure a position as a live-in nanny for a wealthy couple, Nina (played by Amanda Seyfried) and Andrew Winchester (portrayed by Brandon Sklenar), both of whom harbor dangerous secrets, according to reports from 'Female First UK'.

Erin Westerman, president of the Lionsgate Motion Picture Group, expressed her excitement in a statement, saying, "Bringing the next chapter of The Housemaid to life with Kirsten Dunst is a privilege. She is an iconic talent whose career showcases remarkable versatility and bravery. Alongside the captivating Sydney Sweeney, she will bring an electrifying presence to a narrative where nothing is as it appears."

Returning for this sequel are Michele Morrone (35), who plays Enzo Accardi, along with Rebecca Sonnenshine (screenwriter) and Paul Feig (director), who will helm this follow-up to the psychological thriller set for 2025, based on Freida McFadden's bestselling series.

As reported by 'Female First UK', Amanda Seyfried (40) has expressed interest in making a cameo in a potential sequel to 'The Housemaid', which Sweeney and McFadden will help produce.

Amanda shared with 'Variety', "Although no one has officially mentioned a sequel, I am certain there will be one. I almost guarantee I will have a small cameo since the story revolves around Syd working for a new family. There’s so much that unfolds, especially concerning Enzo. I'm eager to see how she manages to keep Nina Winchester in check because I would love to jump back into that world."

Feig, aged 63, recently announced that filming for The Housemaid’s Secret will commence this autumn, as the cast and crew are fully prepared. He informed 'The Hollywood Reporter' at the Academy Awards, "We’re set to begin shooting in the fall. The script is complete; we are just making a few tweaks. We are ready for action. Sydney is returning, Michele is back, and we have some exciting new actors joining us."

The director of 'Bridesmaids' has expressed his delight with the audience's reaction to The Housemaid, especially following the release of his last three films - 'The School for Good and Evil', 'Jackpot', and 'Another Simple Favor' - which were all available on streaming platforms.
