Elizabeth Holmes' Partner Allegedly Sought Share of Nathan Fielder Documentary Profits
Nathan Fielder's new documentary "You Can See Everything" reveals that Elizabeth Holmes' partner, Billy Evans, allegedly attempted to negotiate a share of the film's profits. The demands reportedly ceased after discussions.
A new documentary by Nathan Fielder, titled "You Can See Everything," details an alleged attempt by Elizabeth Holmes' partner, Billy Evans, to secure a portion of the film's profits. The documentary follows Holmes in the 34 days leading up to her federal prison sentence, which began in May 2023.
According to reports, Evans requested a share of the documentary's earnings during a meeting with executives from the production company, A24. The film reenacts this alleged negotiation, with actor Christopher Abbott portraying Evans. However, Evans ultimately withdrew his demands, and will not receive any share of the profits.
The film, directed by Lance Oppenheim in collaboration with Fielder, premiered at the Telluride Film Festival in September. It has garnered attention for its intimate portrayal of Holmes and has also highlighted Evans's significant involvement in her life and the filmmaking process.
Fielder stated that communication with Evans broke down towards the end of filming due to his attempts to exert control over the project. "Near the end of filming, Billy was trying to exert a level of control over the project that made us uncomfortable, and communication with him sort of broke down because of that," Fielder reportedly said.
