The Housemaid Brings Paul Feig A Surprise Box Office Success
Paul Feig’s most recent release, the psychological thriller The Housemaid, arrived in theaters roughly six weeks ago and continues to show solid box-office legs. The Sydney Sweeney and Amanda Seyfried-led film has now earned $227.1 million worldwide, placing it as the 25th highest-grossing movie of 2025 so far (as per Box Office Mojo). It currently sits just behind Five Nights at Freddy’s 2, which has earned $237.6 million globally.
That brings us to the question: Is The Housemaid the highest-grossing film of Paul Feig’s directorial career? And if not, where does it rank among his previous wide theatrical releases? Below, we break down the box office numbers from Paul Feig’s previously directed films to see how The Housemaid stacks up.

The Housemaid vs. Paul Feig’s Theatrical Films – Box Office Comparison
Here’s a quick summary of The Housemaid’s current box office performance, as per Box Office Mojo:
The Housemaid – Box Office Summary
Domestic: $115.6 million
International: $111.5 million
Worldwide: $227.1 million
To put that figure into perspective, here’s how Paul Feig’s previously directed wide theatrical releases have performed at the global box office:
Last Christmas (2019): $123.4 million
A Simple Favor (2018): $97.6 million
Ghostbusters (2016): $229.1 million
Spy (2015): $235.7 million
The Heat (2013): $229.9 million
Bridesmaids (2011): $289.1 million
Unaccompanied Minors (2006): $21.9 million
With a worldwide total of $227.1 million, The Housemaid is not Paul Geig’s highest-grossing film; however, it has already outperformed some of his previously directed titles, including Last Christmas and A Simple Favor. It is now on track to outgross Ghostbusters ($229.1 million) and The Heat ($229.9 million), needing only a modest push to surpass both. The film also aims to surpass Spy ($235.7 million), though overtaking Bridesmaids ($289.1 million) appears to be out of reach at this stage. The Housemaid’s near-even domestic and international split highlights its broad global appeal, a positive indicator that it could continue climbing before the end of its theatrical run.
