Daniel Radcliffe Becomes Weird Al Yankovic In First Official Look At Biopic

After years portraying “The Boy Who Lived” in the Harry Potter film franchise, Daniel Radcliffe is set to embody another iconic role, portraying Grammy-winning comedy icon “Weird Al” Yankovic in the upcoming biopic WEIRD: The Al Yankovic Story. Radcliffe was cast in the project earlier this year — and now we have our first official look at him in costume. On Tuesday, Yankovic took to Twitter to share an official photo of Radcliffe as Weird Al, complete with a Hawaiian shirt, an accordion, and some epic mood lighting. Production on the project has been underway in Los Angeles since last week.

SHOOT DAY #8: It never fails – we’re trying to shoot a movie here, and this cosplayer weirdo tries to crash our set. Ugh! I mean, I love my fans, but… boundaries, people! Don’t worry, we had security throw him out. #WEIRDTheAlYankovicStory @TheRokuChannel pic.twitter.com/XdHZBlrsPM
