EXCLUSIVE: After becoming the highest-grossing documentary at the U.S. box office in the past six years, the Daily Wire‘s breakout feature Am I Racist? has been set for an October 28 streaming launch on the platform.
Directed by Justin Folk, the film sees conservative commentator and Daily Wire contributor Matt Walsh “investigating diversity, equity and inclusion practices, exposing absurdities through undercover social experiments.”
To date, the film has grossed more than $12M at the theatrical box office after launching in theaters nationwide on September 13, debuting in the top five films in the country on its opening weekend.
The movie has a 71% rating on Rotten Tomato from 14 reviews but Daily Wire says the movie has been “largely ignored by mainstream critics, likely for fear of having to acknowledge its success.” The right-wing site also claims that the film has faced boycotts from some independent theaters over “safety concerns”.
Producers are Kirby Williamson, Charlotte Roland, Brian Hoffman, Matt Walsh, and Justin Folk. Sean Hampton and Benyam Capel serve as co-producers, with Dallas Sonnier, Jeremy Boreing, Caleb Robinson, and Ben Shapiro executive-producing.
The Digital Astronaut production is Walsh and Folk’s second collaboration for The Daily Wire after their 2022 documentary What Is A Woman?
