A24's Holmes Documentary Could Fight 'Clayface' for No. 1
Warner Bros. and DC's R-rated 'Clayface' was the presumed winner of the weekend, and Variety reports it may now face competition for the No. 1 spot from A24's Elizabeth Holmes documentary, 'You Can See Everything.' A week ago, 'Clayface' was projected at $25 million to $35 million from 3,400 North American theaters. The documentary could collect $20 million to $25 million while expanding to 2,600 venues in its second weekend, a sophomore-session increase in ticket sales that would be rare.
A second-weekend jump to that many venues looks like a bet that interest is still building rather than burning off.

The telling comparison is that a documentary on 2,600 screens in week two may land within a few million of a DC comic-book adaptation opening on 3,400.
Hold the confetti: the documentary number is a projection, and the outcome it describes — selling more tickets in week two — is a rarity, so this is a possibility rather than a result.
