Weird: The Al Yankovic Story<\/a>, giving us our best look yet at Daniel Radcliffe as the hit comedy singer.<\/p>\nThe trailer shows us moments from Yankovic\u2019s life, including the start of his music career, how he got his stage name and the start of his relationship with Madonna \u2013\u00a0however, viewers should perhaps take all this with a pinch of salt, as the official synopsis for the film sarcastically calls it the \u201cunexaggerated true story about the greatest musician of our time\u201d.<\/p>\n
The trailer gives a sense of the anarchic, parodical tone we can expect from the film, as Rainn Wilson\u2019s Dr Demento delivers a motivational speech from a bath tub and Evan Rachel Wood\u2019s Madonna tells Al that her song Like a Virgin is autobiographical, \u201cexcept for the fact I\u2019ve had a lot of sex\u201d.<\/p>\n
The new footage also show\u2019s Radcliffe\u2019s version of Weird Al coming face to face with the real man himself, as Yankovic plays a record executive in the film. You can watch the full trailer right here, now.<\/p>\n
