  • Studio wants to protect plot twists for theater audiences.

Sydney Sweeney is currently filming 'The Housemaid’s Secret' in New York and New Jersey. Producers are concerned that the presence of paparazzi on set could lead to spoilers.

An insider said the production is trying to avoid leaks, as the film contains surprise twists. They are taking steps to block photographers from capturing sensitive moments.

Despite efforts to keep the plot under wraps, some paparazzi photos have already surfaced, showing Sweeney sharing a kiss with a co-star on the street.

A paparazzi source on the set said the environment is relaxed and there have been no major issues. Sydney Sweeney is described as professional and the set remains calm.

The film is a sequel to last year’s 'The Housemaid,' which grossed $400 million worldwide on a $35 million budget. Lionsgate greenlit the sequel just over two weeks after the original’s release.

The sequel follows Sweeney’s character, Millie Calloway, who takes a housekeeping job for a mysterious client she has never met.
