Sydney Sweeney and Scooter Braun were spotted sharing intimate moments at the afterparty for the premiere of ‘The Housemaid’ in Hollywood, highlighting their growing romance amidst the film’s promotional events.
On Tuesday night, December 16, 2025, the premiere of the thriller ‘The Housemaid’ took place in Hollywood, attended by stars including Sydney Sweeney and Amanda Seyfried. Sweeney captivated onlookers in a Marilyn Monroe-inspired white gown, while Seyfried opted for a copper dress. The event, hosted by Lionsgate, featured speeches from studio executives and director Paul Feig, who dedicated the screening to his wife and to the recently deceased Rob Reiner and his wife Michele. Following the screening, a lavish afterparty was held at Tao nightclub in Los Angeles, where Sweeney changed into a strapless mini dress.
It was at this afterparty that Sweeney was seen cozying up with her boyfriend, music mogul Scooter Braun. According to reports from Page Six and the Daily Mail, the couple were inseparable, locking arms, giggling, and sharing private conversations throughout the evening. Footage obtained by a Page Six reporter showed Sweeney placing her hands on Braun’s chest as they interacted intimately, with Braun pointing out approaching partygoers. The duo’s affection was evident as they mingled with other attendees, smiling and laughing together.
Sweeney and Braun’s romance first sparked public interest in September 2025 after they were spotted together at the Venetian wedding of Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sánchez. Since then, insiders have confirmed that their relationship has evolved from casual dating to something more serious. Sources told People magazine that the pair are “going strong” and in a “committed relationship,” with Braun’s attentive and non-pursuing approach having caught Sweeney’s attention initially. Another insider noted that they have a lot in common and are unfazed by public opinion.
The premiere itself was a star-studded affair, with other notable attendees including Miranda Cosgrove, Awkwafina, and Tyler Posey. Sweeney and Seyfried, who play lead roles in the film, were described as inseparable during the event, holding hands and laughing together. The film, directed by Paul Feig, is based on Freida McFadden’s bestselling 2022 novel and follows Sweeney’s character, Millie, a struggling woman who becomes a live-in maid for an affluent couple, played by Seyfried and Brandon Sklenar. Dark secrets unfold within their seemingly perfect home.
In the context of the recent tragic murders of director Rob Reiner and his wife, the event took on a somber tone, with Feig and Lionsgate chair Adam Fogelson acknowledging the loss during their speeches. This added a layer of gravity to the otherwise celebratory night. The film is set to release in theaters on December 19, 2025, and both Sweeney and Seyfried have received awards buzz for other projects this year, with Sweeney starring in ‘Christy’ and Seyfried in ‘The Testament of Ann Lee.’
The appearance of Sweeney and Braun together at such a high-profile event signals the seriousness of their relationship, which has been the subject of media speculation for months. This outing comes after previous rumors involving Sweeney and her co-stars, such as Glen Powell, but now her focus appears to be on Braun, with sources describing their bond as genuine and deepening. As ‘The Housemaid’ prepares for its theatrical release, the attention on Sweeney’s personal life adds to the film’s promotional momentum.
For Hollywood observers, the event underscores how celebrity romances and professional milestones often intersect, creating narratives that captivate public interest. With the film’s imminent release and the couple’s ongoing romance, this story is likely to remain in the spotlight, blending entertainment news with personal intrigue in typical industry fashion.
