Weird Al & Daniel Radcliffe interviews for Weird: The Al Yankovic Story

[silverstarry]

Back in 2010, Funny or Die created a movie trailer for Weird: The Al Yankovic Story, which was a fictional parody of biopics about musicians. Over a decade later, the movie has become a reality (and was directed by Eric Appel, the guy who created the original sketch). The movie begins streaming on Roku this Friday, so Weird Al and Daniel Radcliffe

Me too! He popped up at a Weezer show I went to a few years ago to do an accordion solo on Africa and I almost cried.

My husband and I took his daughters to see Weird Al for their first concert. Third row! He walked right by us and they got to touch his sleeve!

[quaintcunt]

They finally met for an EW photoshoot a couple of years ago; the cover said “when Harry met Frodo” and my early 2000s self was dying lmao.

Weird Al should have performed the halftime show idc idc

[gillenvillain]

I would watch that halftime show.

So is this going to be in any theaters to theoretically be eligible for awards? Because I have no idea how to work Roku but I would happily see it here in LA.

I saw it in a theater in Santa Monica. Do festival screenings count?

[marywebgirl]

Recently? I'm just interested in seeing it in person, so wherever it's available. Fandango doesn't list anything. Did you see it at the Laemmle?

[mixtape_reverie]

I saw it at the Aero. And my husband saw it again after that at the Nuart. But they were both one-off festival screenings.
