'You Can See Everything' surges with $19.5M at box office; 'Clayface' takes No. 1

Key Points:

• DC Studios' "Clayface" opened with a $24 million weekend, marking a modest R-rated success and showing promise for DC's venture into horror-themed comic book films, with a $44 million budget and positive audience and critic reception.
• A24's documentary "You Can See Everything" grossed $19.5 million in its wide release weekend, expanding to 2,655 theaters and reaching $45.1 million in two weeks, becoming one of the highest-grossing documentaries and a potential Oscar best picture nominee.
• Warner Bros.' "Clayface" led the weekend box office narrowly over "You Can See Everything," also earning $19 million internationally and providing financial stability for DC Studios after prior setbacks like "Supergirl."
• Laika's stop-motion film "Wildwood" debuted with $11.8 million, improving on past releases but unlikely to be profitable due to its $100 million production cost, while the indie film "Wicker" had a strong $5.8 million opening on a small acquisition budget.
• Other new releases struggled, with "Street Fighter" dropping 72% to $8.6 million in its second weekend, "Klara and the Sun" earning $725,000 at 880 theaters, and Sacha Baron Cohen's "Ali G: Who Iz I?" seeing a limited release amid controversy and poor reception.
