How Daniel Radcliffe Was Cast In The Weird Al Movie
Daniel Radcliffe got his role as «Weird Al» Yankovic in the upcoming biopic WEIRD: The Al Yankovic Story in a way that can only be described as weird. Radcliffe, who is best known for playing boy wizard Harry Potter for a decade beginning with 2001's Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone, has grown up in the public eye. Following that tentpole fantasy film franchise, he has taken on much smaller, weirder roles including playing a farting corpse in Swiss Army Man , a mad video game designer in Guns Akimbo, and the iconic literary figure Igor in Victor Frankenstein.
