1 Patrick Stewart 4,714,525 In a career that spanned six decades and even earned him a knighthood, Sir Patrick Stewart began on stage as a Shakespearean actor, and became internationally known on television and film, most notably as Captain Jean-Luc Picard of Star Trek: The Next Generation and Professor Charles Xavier of the X-Men, along with borrowing his strong voice to all kinds of works such as this year's The Sheep Detectives. Stewart was one of a plethora of Marvel actors returning on Avengers: Doomsday, and that will be his final role once it was announced Stewart died at 86, following a "brief and poignant journey" with Alzheimer's disease and Lewy body dementia.
2 2026 Israeli legislative election 2,136,161 The election concluded on October 27, with the results keeping Benjamin Netanyahu's bloc as the group with the most seats but making them fall short of a majority due to gains by the opposition bloc and surprising success from the Arab parties, with Palestinian citizens of Israel turning out in record numbers. Netanyahu's bloc, of course, contends without evidence that the Arabs committed voter fraud. Negotiations will now begin to form a new government with either Netanyahu or opposition leader Gadi Eisenkot as prime minister, with a new election to be held if neither can form a large-enough coalition.
3 Elizabeth Holmes 1,085,504 A great sign of how weird times have gotten is that the North American box office was led by a three hour documentary (#9) that has been in theaters for three weeks. You Can See Everything centers around the Theranos entrepreneur whose promised revolution in clinical tests turned out to be quite a scam, a story previously told in the Hulu miniseries The Dropout, that won Amanda Seyfried an Emmy and a Golden Globe for playing Holmes. Thus The Dropout is featured in the documentary, with Holmes distressed when director Nathan Fielder tries to screen it for her, and also saying her fellow inmates mistreat her for how she's depicted in the show. Seyfried was also brought in to both reenact conversations that Holmes did not allow to be filmed, and discuss with Fielder the recent developments in Holmes's life, such as her husband deciding to follow her path in the blood test market with Haemanthus.
4 Deaths in 2026 1,064,122 As #1 said in his first Star Trek movie, "It's our mortality that defines us, Soran. It's part of the truth of our existence."
5 Jailer 2 999,756 This Nelson Dilipkumar-directed action comedy film remains high-up on the Report for a third week, which isn't surprising considering how successful it has been. Despite some social media criticism, the film has seen massive box office success, having surpassed 2018's 2.0 this week to become the highest-grossing Tamil film of all time, although it still is only the second-highest grossing Indian film of 2026 since wildly successful Dhurandhar: The Revenge also released this year.
6 Sunny Ozell 965,431 #1 was married thrice, the first being the mother of his two children, and his widow being this American singer-songwriter who was 31 years younger, who Stewart married in a ceremony officiated by Ian McKellen and met amidst performances of Macbeth at the Brooklyn Academy of Music.
7 2026 Brazilian general election 915,429 South America's biggest freak show ended, and for all the scares caused by round 1 of the presidential race being led by Flávio Bolsonaro, a guy with a rap sheet longer than his political achievements, that basically only became a candidate so if elected he could pardon his convicted ex-president father Jair (who in another loss was the first article off this list!), the second one ended with the victory of incumbent Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva. Like his father in 2022, Flávio followed his defeat by escaping the country and not admitting he lost (anything but return to his work as Senator).
8 Clayface (film) 857,683 Given no big releases came out in the US during Halloween weekend, the box office ranking had few changes from the previous week, including an exchange of positions between first and second place, that had been this horror approach to a Batman villain and became runner-up to the below, the documentary on #3. For those wanting more details, Clayface is basically a retelling of the Batman: The Animated Series episode "Feat of Clay", following an actor who undergoes a treatment to correct a disfigurement, only for it to give him unusual physical abilities and later send him into a rampage of revenge.
9 You Can See Everything 826,991 The film about #3, which has become a cultural phenomenon to the point where people are dressing up as #3 and Nathan Fielder for Halloween this year, as well as look-alike contests, shows up to the Report for another week.
10 Eric Bauza 811,231 A Canadian voice actor who died at just 46 from hypertensive heart disease, and in the last few years was going full Mel Blanc in voicing all the major Looney Tunes characters, including in Space Jam: A New Legacy and Coyote vs. Acme. At least Bauza's voice will be heard in theaters nationwide this week, given a new Looney Tunes short will be released alongside The Cat in the Hat.
