The Housemaid wraps filming

The anticipated remake of psychological thriller The Housemaid — starring Jeon Do-yeon, Lee Jung-jae, and Seo Woo — has wrapped production after three months of filming. It has also released a new set of four stills, which feature the three lead actors and veteran actress Yoon Yeo-jung.

The film has been drawing a lot of interest with its casting and its description as an “erotic suspense thriller,” which places Jeon Do-yeon in the femme fatale role as the older housemaid who has an affair with Lee Jung-jae, who is married to a young perfect wife played by Seo Woo. Jeon said after filming her last scene, “The Housemaid is an extremely entertaining film. I still don’t feel like it’s really over.”

Jeon added, “This was a big experience for me, and I tried a new challenge and made a new change because of director Im Sang-soo. I’m so thankful to Lee Jung-jae, with whom I always worked so well; Yoon Yeo-jung, whom I always miss; and our youngest, Seo Woo, who followed along very well in a difficult role.”

Lee Jung-jae, who finished shooting his part before Jeon, said, “I feel more attachment to this movie than any project in the past.” Yoon Yeo-jung said, “It was difficult physically, but I was really happy filming. I’m glad to be able to to act with Jeon Do-yeon.” Director Im said, “I could feel the delight coming from the actors as we worked. Jeon Do-yeon has put in a completely different performance than she’s shown till now, and I’m already looking forward to seeing it.”

The Housemaid is planned for a May theatrical release.

Love the stills. I'm surprised they finished filming in three months; I thought movies would take much longer.

just caught the housemaid awhile back, and it was real good! the crazy things the housemaid did all had the theatre audience alternating between gasps of laughter and surprise since everything was horrifying and absurd. i have no clue as to how the modern remake would bear similarities to the original, although i sense the same sense of eventual doom seen from the stills above. - can't wait for it!

Was Yoon YeoJung in the original Housemaid as well, or was that a different movie..?

Anyway- I'm excited for this! I'm surprised it was filmed so quickly.. it still feels really recent from when I first heard Lee JungJae was casted!

I watched the first half of paju last night and I think seo woo is extremely talented

This film looks really intriguing. But I'd have to say the beautiful looking bath tub in the top pic is most alluring, lol!

I actually just saw the original The Housemaid at the San Francisco Asian American Film Festival, they remastered it and was showing it to the public. Since it's got that whole sixties-esque drama to it, it was actually pretty humorous even though it was supposed to be a thriller .____.

The whole audience started laughing when they broke the 4th wall at the end lol. It was pretty makjang and ridiculous though it was stll a good movie :]

The previews look interesting, The woman playing the housemaid is a good actress but she is NOT sexy or Pretty. She looks like a plain jane but I guess that is probably why the wife is going to go ballistic.

lee jung jae looks darn hot in that picturee.

but somehow (to me), jeon do yeon just doesn't look seductive and sexy enough as compared to the housemaid in the original movie. don't you agree? she doesn't look dangerous and lustful in the first still; just, well...shocked.

just sayin', since the movie isn't out yet. (: can't wait!
