‘You Can See Everything’ Surges with $19.5M at Box Office; ‘Clayface’ Takes No. 1 – WTOP News
The DC origin story earns praise for gruesome creature effects while critics say its screenplay is uneven and tonally all over the map.
- Warner Bros.' "Clayface" opened at number one this weekend, grossing $24.5 million in 3,458 theaters according to studio estimates released Sunday. The R-rated horror film narrowly edged A24's documentary "You Can See Everything" for the top spot.
- A24's documentary "You Can See Everything" secured second place with $19.5 million, expanding significantly from 855 locations to 2,655 theaters in its latest weekend. The expansion strategy positioned the film as a major contender.
- Budgeted at only $44 million, "Clayface" represents a smaller-scale project for DC Studios under James Gunn and Peter Safran's stewardship. Audiences awarded the film an A- CinemaScore and a 94% user average on Rotten Tomatoes.
- Laika's stop-motion feature "Wildwood" debuted in third place with $11.8 million in 2,779 locations. The comic fable "Wicker" launched with $5.8 million, featuring stars Olivia Colman and Alexander Skarsg.
- Last weekend's top film, the video game adaptation "Street Fighter," fell to fourth place after dropping 72% with $8.6 million. The Paramount Pictures release has grossed $46.9 million domestically in two weeks.
