Amanda Seyfried Says ‘You Can See Everything’ Role “Scares” Her, “Feels Good” Taking On Doc

Amanda Seyfried says taking on a role that unsettles her feels rewarding, after her appearance in the experimental documentary *You Can See Everything* was revealed. She reprises her portrayal of disgraced Theranos founder Elizabeth Holmes, following her award-winning performance in the 2022 series *The Dropout*.

The film, by Nathan Fielder and Lance Oppenheim, follows Holmes and her husband Billy Evans at home in the month before she began an 11-year prison sentence for fraud in 2023. It continues after she reports to prison in Bryan, Texas, using Seyfried in reenactments of events that were not filmed. The film’s makers are building Oscar interest around her performance; a nomination would make her the first documentary reenactor nominated in an acting category.
