Daniel; Radcliff is getting weird and unrecognizable as the 32-year-old actor transformed into Weird Al" Yankovic on the set of the upcoming Roku biopic titled WEIRD: The Al Yankovic Story, which began production earlier this month in Los Angeles.
Roku announced Radcliffe had landed the role in a January release detailing the upcoming biopic, produced by Funny or Die and Tango.
In the cheeky release, Yankovic, 62, said he is
"absolutely thrilled that the Harry Potter star is portraying him in the film",
which is set to debut on the Roku Channel.
We can see why Yankovic would be so proud. Here are first images of Radcliff in full Weird Al mode below:
According to sources, the "Weird Al" biopic "holds nothing back, exploring every facet of Yankovic's life, from his meteoric rise to fame with early hits like 'Eat It' and 'Like a Surgeon' to his torrid celebrity love affairs and famously depraved lifestyle."
The movie also promises to bring "audiences on a truly unbelievable journey through Yankovic's life and career, from gifted child prodigy to the greatest musical legend of all time."
