Daniel Radcliffe will star in biopic about comedian-musician "Weird Al" Yankovic

The British actor has joined the project "Weird: The Al Yankovic Story." In the biopic from Roku, Daniel Radcliffe will play famed comedy musician and five-time Grammy Award winner Al Yankovic, nicknamed "Weird."
This is not the first attempt to tell the story Yankovich on the screen - in 2010 he released a short film with the same title.
Filming will begin early in Los Angeles. "Weird Al." Yankovic is the best-selling parody musician of all time. The biographical film promises to keep nothing secret and shed light on all the similarities of the musician's life, from his early childhood to his global success.
