Oh wow. I remember Al on Doctor Demento back in the '70s (yes, I am a fossil) and his early records. I saw Weird Al live once in Mesa in the '80s, can't remember what album was current at the time, not that it matters. But I will say this: I think this will be a wild ride! I may actually subscribe to Roku for a month to watch this when it comes out!

To quote Weird Al from the article:
“When my last movie UHF came out in 1989, I made a solemn vow to my fans that I would release a major motion picture every 33 years, like clockwork. I’m very happy to say we’re on schedule,” Yankovic added in a statement. “And I am absolutely thrilled that Daniel Radcliffe will be portraying me in the film. I have no doubt whatsoever that this is the role future generations will remember him for.”

This is a trailer embedded in the article. I have no idea whether to take it seriously.

I would certainly like to see a serious film about such a funny person. And I think Daniel Radcliffe has the necessary range to get it done. We'll see how that goes.
