'Everything Everywhere All at Once' costumes and props — including iconic hot dog fingers and 'Raccacoonie' — sell for over $550K in A24 auctions
- A24 auctioned off dozens of props and costumes from "Everything Everywhere All at Once."
- Proceeds of the auction will go to three charities selected by the film's directing duo.
Film studio A24 auctioned dozens of props, costumes, and other memorabilia from the Oscar-nominated film "Everything Everywhere All at Once" for charity on Thursday.
The sale featured a total of 43 items spread across three groups: "Mementos from the Multiverse," "In Another Life," and "Laundry & Taxes," with each group benefiting a specific philanthropy chosen by the film's directors. The auctions opened bidding in February and culminated on Thursday afternoon.
The multiversal family adventure is nominated for 11 Oscars, including Best Picture and Best Director, as well as several acting categories for the performances of Michelle Yeoh, Jamie Lee Curtis, Stephanie Hsu, and Ke Huy Quan. It also won several categories at the Screen Actors Guild Awards earlier this week.
Across all 43 items, the props and costumes sold for a total of $555,725, all of which is set to go to the three charities picked by the directors, an A24 spokesperson told Insider.
A mix of props and costumes were available in the auctions, including the famous "hot dog finger" gloves worn by Yeoh's character Evelyn. The highest priced item by a wide margin was the $90,000 shelled out for "Raccacoonie," a stuffed raccoon that appeared as a parody of Disney's "Ratatouille" in one scene of the movie, controlling a chef by pulling his hair.
Other high-priced items included $60,000 for an "auditor of the month" trophy, $55,000 for the hot dog fingers, and several other props and costumes including a rock with googly eyes and the fanny pack worn by Quan's character Waymond sold for tens of thousands of dollars.
The least expensive item was $2,500 for a copy of the fictional "Feets" magazine, followed closely by an donut-patterned umbrella that sold for $2,650.
The charities selected by the film's directing duo, Daniel Kwan and Daniel Scheinert, include the Asian Mental Health Project, the Transgender Law Center, and the Laundry Workers Center, which focuses on improving the living and working conditions of service industry workers.
The hit film became A24's highest-grossing film to date, pulling in over $100 million worldwide, according to Deadline. A24 has also auctioned items for charity from some of its past films including "Uncut Gems" and "Midsommar," as well as other general Hollywood memorabilia.
