‘Street Fighter’ reportedly opens to $30 million as ‘You Can See Everything’ debuts at $15 million

Sunday estimates put Paramount’s “Street Fighter” on top of the domestic box office with $30 million from 3,575 venues, Variety reported. The video game adaptation added an estimated $20.1 million overseas, bringing its worldwide opening to $51.1 million.

“You Can See Everything” was the weekend’s surprise. Nathan Fielder and Lance Oppenheim’s documentary about Theranos founder Elizabeth Holmes earned an estimated $15 million from only 855 theaters, more than doubling its $7 million to $8 million pre-weekend projection and taking second place.

A24 produced the nearly three-hour film in secret over three years for roughly $7 million. The distributor reported more than 2,000 sold-out screenings, while opening-weekend exit polls showed roughly 70% of the audience was younger than 35. According to Variety, 90% of ticket buyers said they would definitely recommend the film, and 80% said it was better than expected.

Variety described the result as the biggest documentary opening in more than 20 years and the largest debut for a movie playing on fewer than 1,000 screens since “Borat” in 2006. Those comparisons are not adjusted for inflation. “You Can See Everything” is set to expand nationwide in the coming weeks.
