Daniel Radcliffe Shines In New Weird Al Biopic Teaser Trailer

"Weird Al" Yankovic has released a teaser trailer from his upcoming biopic. Weird: The Al Yankovic Story is slated for a fall 2022 release on The Roku Channel.

First announced back in January, the movie is a partnered production between Roku and Funny or Die. It stars Daniel Radcliffe as "Weird Al," though no additional cast has yet been announced. Production began in February, coming from a script co-written by Yankovic and Eric Appel--and Appel, who has also directed for Brooklyn Nine-Nine and The Office, directing.

I'm very happy to say we're on schedule," said Yankovic in a press release. "And I am absolutely thrilled that Daniel Radcliffe will be portraying me in the film.
