A poster and release date has been confirmed for Weird: The Al Yankovic story.
Starring Harry Potter actor Daniel Radcliffe, he is taking on the role of Weird Al Yankovic.
The biopic film is loosely based on a comedy sketch of the same name.
The sketch was a fake trailer for a fictional biopic of Weird Al Yankovic's life.
The real trailer for the film does the same.
Fans are treated to the sight of a curly-haired, accordion playing Daniel Radcliffe.
He spits alcohol into the crowd and generally gets into trouble.
Watch the trailer below:
"The 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 release reads.
The cast also includes Rainn Wilson, Evan Rachel Wood, Toby Huss and Julianne Nicholson and James Preston Rogers.
You can watch 'Weird: The Al Yankovic Story' on the Roku Channel on November 4.
