My Bologna: Celebs Rumors

hilarious trailer for the upcoming biopic “Weird: The Al Yankovic Story.”“Harry Potter” star Radcliffe, 33, dons a wild wig, glasses and bushy mustache to play the now-62-year-old parody crooner, while Wood, 34, rocks the “Like a Virgin” singer’s eclectic style, including big, teased hair and a leather jacket.In one scene, a flirty Madonna visits “Weird Al” at his massive mansion and asks if he will do a parody of her hit. The shot rapidly cuts to the two wildly kissing against the wall in the film, which documents the “White and Nerdy” rapper’s rise to fame.The clip also dives into the accordion-loving Mad Magazine contributor’s put-upon early life and how he composed his parody songs, including “My Bologna,” “Another One Rides the Bus” and “I Love Rocky Road.” “Be as weird as you want to be,” he declared to an awards show audience in the trailer, which also focuses on Yankovic’s struggle to be taken seriously.“All I wanted was to make up new words to a song that already exists,” Radcliffe-as-Yankovic confessed in the trailer to discuss his creative process.

I’m very happy to say we’re on schedule,” Yankovic said in a previous statement.“And I am absolutely thrilled that Daniel Radcliffe will be portraying me in the film.

Daniel Radcliffe has taken on potentially his most bizarre role to date in Weird: The Al Yankovic Story – and the new trailer has us all kinds of hyped. The former Harry Potter actor is starring as Weird Al, the iconic musician known for his comedy songs, in the biopic that we never knew we needed. ‘I’m tired of people thinking I’m some kind of joke,’ Al says at the beginning of the trailer.

Daniel Radcliffe makes the full transformation into the parody king, «Weird Al» Yakovic! On Monday, the trailer for the upcoming Roku original Story dropped and gave the world a closer look at the man who changed music for the weird. The trailer begins as Al literally kicks in the door and tosses a tape to a record executive (played by the actual «Weird Al» Yankovic) and says, “Put in it.”  “I’m tired of people thinking I'm some kind of joke,” Radcliffe’s Al says as a clip of him as a young boy being shamed by his parents plays.“My whole life, all I wanted is to make up new words to a song that already exists,” he says amid a scene of the police bringing him home from a polka party to his disappointed parents.  After Al gets the approval from his friends, and future bandmates, the almost 3-minute trailer cuts into his life as a musician best known for making parodies of songs that topped the charts.

Al Yankovic may be best known for his weirdness, but there was also some darkness to the satirist too. And in the new trailer for “Weird,” Roku’s biopic on the singer, we see just how intense that darkness could get.Naturally, the footage shows the origins of some of Weird Al’s most famous parodies — including “My Bologna.” According to this movie, it came about as he was explaining to his friends what exactly he wanted to do with his life — and apparently, it gave them chills in the room.
