The release of the documentary "You Can See Everything," directed by Nathan Fielder and Lance Oppenheim, has sparked a renewed wave of public interest in the Theranos fraud scandal. Following the announcement of the film on 6 September 2026, viewership for the 2022 Hulu series "The Dropout," which stars Amanda Seyfried as Elizabeth Holmes, rose by 186% in September compared to the previous month. This momentum continued into October, with viewership increasing by 92% during the week of 12 October, leading up to the film's 16 October premiere.
The documentary, produced by A24, achieved a significant box office performance, earning $15 million in North America during its opening weekend across 855 screens. This marks the strongest opening for a documentary in over 20 years, with approximately 2,000 sold-out screenings reported. The film's success has also impacted other media related to the subject; the 2018 book "Bad Blood" by John Carreyrou, which details the collapse of Theranos, has returned to the New York Times bestseller list.
"You Can See Everything" has received critical acclaim, holding high ratings on platforms such as Rotten Tomatoes, Metacritic, and Letterboxd. Industry analysts are discussing the possibility of the film becoming the first documentary to receive an Academy Award nomination for Best Picture. A24 plans to expand the film's release to at least 2,600 screens for its second weekend, with international premieres scheduled for 12 November in Australia and 20 November in the UK.
