The domestic box-office landscape shifted this weekend as A24’s You Can See Everything – an documentary chronicling the rise and fall of Theranos founder Elizabeth Holmes – added $10.6 million to its tally. That surge lifted the film’s U.S. total to $63.9 million, allowing it to claim the #1 position for the first time in its third week of release.
Meanwhile, Warner Bros. and DC Studios’ Clayface, a body-horror spin-off from the Batman franchise, posted a $10.4 million weekend, bringing its North American gross to $44.1 million and a worldwide sum of $83 million against a $44 million production budget.
Theranos documentary tops the domestic chart
Directed by a team of seasoned filmmakers, You Can See Everything has been praised for its investigative depth and narrative pacing. Produced for just $7 million, the film’s $10.6 million weekend haul represents a remarkable return on investment, eclipsing the performance of many higher-budget releases. The documentary’s ascent also nudged it past Michael Moore’s Bowling for Columbine, securing the 18th spot on the all-time domestic documentary earnings list.
DC’s “Clayface” holds steady amid studio overhaul
The Clayface result underscores the ongoing rebuild led by James Gunn and Peter Safran at DC Studios. After a successful 2025 launch of Superman, the duo faced a stumble with Supergirl last summer, which lost tens of millions and drew harsh critical feedback. Nonetheless, Clayface managed a respectable $10.4 million run, keeping the film comfortably within its $44 million budget envelope and reinforcing the studio’s bid to rival Marvel’s market share.
Mid-budget and specialty titles carve niches
Laika’s stop-motion feature Wildwood earned $7.5 million this weekend, bringing its domestic total to $25 million and a global gross of $35 million. Despite critical acclaim, the film’s $100 million production cost suggests a long road to profitability.
Black Bear’s erotic dramedy Wicker captured $4.1 million from 2,374 theaters, raising its U.S. total to $13.2 million. Acquired at Sundance for $2.5 million, the picture now appears poised to become a modest success for the studio as it experiments with self-distribution.
On the documentary side, the team behind Free Solo – Elizabeth Chai Vasarhelyi and Jimmy Chin – released Everest: The Other Side in limited engagement, netting $1 million from 515 venues. Backed by National Geographic Documentary Films, the project is already being tipped as an awards contender.
Finally, Sony Pictures Classics expanded the reach of The Only Living Pickpocket in New York, pulling in just over $1.9 million from 1,112 screens and lifting its domestic total past $2.1 million. The indie effort aims to position John Turturro for a long-awaited Academy Award nomination.
