From page to screen to stage… Lionsgate is turning “The Housemaid,” the best-seller turned box-office hit, into a play.

The sexy psychological thriller, based on the novel by Freida McFadden, is being developed for the stage by producers Melting Pot, a British company led by Simon Friend and Hanna Osmolska (Broadway’s “Life of Pi” and “Paranormal Activity”) and playwright Bekah Brunstetter (Broadway’s “The Notebook”). The production timeline is unclear.
