Sasha Urban editorIn the infinitely vast multiverse of the Daniels’ “Everything Everywhere All At Once,” anything is possible: Fingers become hot dogs, raccoons become chefs and rocks can even talk to one another. So, when the time came for hair department head Anissa Salazar to design the cast’s hairstyles — from a traditional Chinese opera headdress to a bagel sculpted from braids — her options were endless.The A24 film stars Michelle Yeoh as Evelyn Wang, an exhausted mother and wife whose laundromat is being audited by the IRS.

“Everything Everywhere All at Once.” The new film from the directing duo known as “Daniels” (best known for helming the Daniel Radcliffe/Paul Dano film “Swiss Army Man”) throws iconic actress Michelle Yeoh into the middle of a story traversing a literal multiverse, packed with surprises and jaw-dropping action along the way.

Over the weekend somebody told me that the visual effects department was insanely small.I can confirm this for you, so we had five people doing a majority of the almost 500 shots. So that’s crazy.That is crazy. Can you talk about that?Yeah.

A24 may have found the filmmakers to jump-start the art-house box office and, in something of a surprise, it’s the visionary directing duo of Dan Kwan and Daniel Scheiert, aka The Daniels. This past weekend, their second cinematic opus, “Everything Everywhere All At Once,” opened in limited release to an impressive $509,659 or $50,965 in just 10 theaters.

A24 reported an estimated total of $509,659 for an average of just under $51,000 for the weekend. By comparison, “Spider-Man: No Way Home” had a per screen average of just under $60,000 thanks to its historic $260 million opening in wide release in December. Meanwhile, A24 opted to take the traditional path with a platform launch for “Everything Everywhere” after the film won overwhelming acclaim from its premiere at SXSW in Austin.

Everything Everywhere All At Once grossed over half a million dollars on 10 screens in NYC, LA and San Francisco for a hefty $50,965 per-screen-average — a number rarely seen since the pre-Covid old days of theatrical releases and the biggest of the year so far. The mind-melding Sandra Yeogh-starrer directed by the Daniels (Dan Kwan and Daniel Scheinert) played to sold out crowds including Imax engagements.

A24’s SXSW opener Everything Everywhere All At Once, Bleecker Street’s Infinite Storm and Sony Pictures Classics’ Mothering Sunday offer something that’s been rare of late at the specialty box office, fresh content and choice.

In The Daniels’ visionary sophomore feature, “Everything Everywhere All At Once,” Michelle Yeoh plays Evelyn Wang, a woman of a certain age struggling with keeping her laundromat business afloat. But Evelyn is also a pop superstar, a movie star, a hibachi chef, a Kung Fu master, and much more.

“Everything Everywhere All at Once” is your standard multiverse martial arts movie about filing your taxes and midlife regret in which googly eyes, everything bagels and fanny packs play vital supporting roles and portals to parallel existences are opened not with a spell but with butt plugs and paper cuts.The movie, opening in theaters Friday, is by Daniel Kwan and Daniel Scheinert, the filmmaking duo known as the “the Daniels,” whose first film, the buddy movie “Swiss Army Man,” co-starred Daniel Radcliffe as a very flatulent corpse.“Everything Everywhere All at Once," though, is more ambitious. It's possible that the distance has never before been so great between a movie's mundane storyline — in this case, a Chinese immigrant laundromat owner trying to file her taxes — and what extreme shape it takes.

Wang, a Chinese-Australian writer, won a Cannes Lion award in 2018 for her short film “Unnatural” and is currently attached to make her feature film debut as writer-director of an untitled horror film for Paramount. Her TV credits include as story editor for Netflix’s “Brothers Sun” and director of an upcoming episode of Starz’s “Blindspotting.”Wang will join the team from “Crazy Rich Asians” that includes Jon M.

EXCLUSIVE: Warner Bros and Color Force have set up-and-coming Chinese-Australian writer Amy Wang to pen Crazy Rich Asians 2, Deadline can reveal, replacing Peter Chiarelli and Adele Lim following the 2019 controversy around pay parity.

Kevin Feige may not want audiences to know this, but there’s more going on at the local cinema than the latest MCU release. And Marvel may indeed own a large swathe of the Hollywood landscape today, but they don’t have a monopoly on everything — not even the multiverse.

“Everything Everywhere All At Once” carries a surprising sci-fi staidness for the loony directors behind “Swiss Army Man,” until a character, after ingesting a chock full of pink chapstick, magically becomes a martial arts master, decimating the security guards patrolling a drab IRS office in the process. In Dan Kwan and Daniel Scheinert’s bold and boundless, nihilist multiverse spectacle, the co-directors known as the Daniels gleefully reference “The Matrix,” “Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon,” “2001: A Space Odyssey,” and the works of Wong Kar-wai to give the legendary Michelle Yeoh her most demanding, and possibly most fulfilling role, yet.
