Clayface Dominates Box Office, Rescues Warner Bros.
24 Oct
Summary
- Clayface film opened with $24 million, exceeding budget expectations.
- The movie received strong critical and audience scores on Rotten Tomatoes.
- Warner Bros. sees relief after a difficult year with multiple film busts.
DC Studios' "Clayface" is poised to debut with an estimated $24 million domestically, a significant achievement against its $40 million budget and a welcome turnaround for Warner Bros. The film has garnered positive reviews, boasting a 76% critics score and a 93% audience score on Rotten Tomatoes, complemented by an A- CinemaScore.
This robust reception suggests "Clayface" will perform well through the Halloween season and become a modest theatrical success. This comes as a considerable relief for Warner Bros., which experienced a series of box office disappointments in 2026, including "Digger," "Supergirl," and "Practical Magic 2."
Elsewhere, A24's documentary "You Can See Everything" expanded its reach to 2,655 locations and is estimated to earn $20 million in its second weekend. This brings the film's domestic total to an impressive $45 million, making it the highest-grossing documentary of the past decade.
Under new Skydance ownership, Warner Bros. anticipates further successes with upcoming releases such as "The Cat in the Hat" and "Dune: Part Three," aiming to build on the momentum from "Clayface."
