A24's documentary You Can See Everything took $3.56 million on Friday and is projected at about $10.8 million for its third weekend in US and Canadian cinemas, narrowly ahead of Warner Bros' DC film Clayface at $10.4 million, according to Saturday estimates reported by Deadline.
A24’s documentary You Can See Everything is on course to lead the Halloween weekend at the US and Canadian box office for a second time, narrowly ahead of Warner Bros and DC’s Clayface, according to industry estimates reported by Deadline on Saturday.
The three-hour film, co-directed by Lance Oppenheim with Nathan Fielder and featuring former Theranos founder Elizabeth Holmes, took $3.56 million on Friday in 3,243 cinemas. Deadline projected a third-weekend total of $10.8 million, down 42%, taking its domestic gross to about $64 million.
Clayface, directed by James Watkins, took $3.25 million on Friday, down 69% from its opening day, and was projected at $10.4 million for its second weekend, for a running total of about $44 million.
Laika’s animated Wildwood was third with a projected $7.1 million, followed by Black Bear’s Wicker, starring Olivia Colman, at $4 million and Paramount’s Street Fighter at $3.5 million. The concert film BTS: World Tour Arirang opened in sixth place with a projected $3 million from 1,010 cinemas.
Deadline said all films combined were heading for more than $63 million over the weekend, with Halloween falling on Saturday and no major studio opening a wide release. It said A24 has passed $500 million at the domestic box office this year, its highest annual total.
Figures are studio and industry estimates as of 16:15 GMT on Saturday, 31 October; final weekend numbers are due on Sunday and Monday.
