A24's Theranos Documentary 'You Can See Everything' Takes No. 1 From 'Clayface'

A24's Elizabeth Holmes documentary "You Can See Everything" earned $10.6 million this weekend and claimed first place at the domestic box office for the first time — in its third week of release, and by a margin of just $200,000.

Warner Bros. and DC Studios' "Clayface" took $10.4 million, bringing its North American total to $44.1 million and its global gross to $83 million. The body horror "Batman" spinoff cost $44 million to produce — modest by comic-book standards — and it opened ahead of the documentary before ceding the top spot. A first-place finish in week three is rare; the numbers behind the win deserve scrutiny.

What does the win actually change?

For A24, it confirms that a $7 million documentary can outdraw a studio superhero release. "You Can See Everything" now stands at $63.9 million domestic and has passed Michael Moore's "Bowling for Columbine" to become the 18th highest-grossing documentary of all time. That ranking is cumulative, not a measure of this weekend's momentum alone — but the milestone is real, and the production cost makes the margin extraordinary.

For DC, the picture is murkier. "Clayface" belongs to James Gunn and Peter Safran's effort to revitalize the studio into a genuine Marvel competitor. Their first film, "Superman," was a hit on its 2025 debut. "Supergirl" was not: it lost tens of millions and drew scathing reviews last summer. "Clayface" landing at $44 million domestically against a $44 million budget is profitable only when the global figure is counted — and even then, unremarkably.

The rest of the chart

• "Wildwood" — Laika's stop-motion feature earned $7.5 million, reaching $25 million domestic and $35 million worldwide. Critics adore it; the $100 million price tag means it will struggle to turn a profit.
• "Wicker" — Black Bear's erotic dramedy took $4.1 million from 2,374 theaters in its second weekend, for a $13.2 million domestic total. The studio paid $2.5 million for it at Sundance, positioning it as a modest hit as Black Bear moves into distributing its own titles.
• "Everest: The Other Side" — the new documentary from "Free Solo" directors Elizabeth Chai Vasarhelyi and Jimmy Chin debuted with $1 million from 515 locations. National Geographic Documentary Films backs it and expects an awards run.
• "The Only Living Pickpocket in New York" — Sony Pictures Classics expanded the film to $1.9 million from 1,112 screens, bringing its domestic total to just over $2.1 million. The studio is campaigning for John Turturro to receive a long-overdue Oscar nomination.

The caveat behind the headline

A narrow win over a mid-budget superhero spinoff is not a seismic shift. But two documentaries in the top ten's orbit, a $7 million film outgrossing a DC title's weekend, and Laika's $100 million gamble struggling all point the same direction: audiences are rewarding cheap, distinctive nonfiction while expensive franchise bets keep needing global bailouts. Whether "You Can See Everything" climbs further up the all-time documentary list will test how durable that appetite really is.
