He was great as Weird Al
I didn't even know it was a thing: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Weird:_The_Al_Yankovic_Story
It only initially released on Roku's streaming service, but I think it's available elsewhere now.
It is NOT meant to be historically accurate, which makes it funnier IMO.
I'd go so far as to call it a parody of other rock star documentaries ππ
Weird Al takes secular pop songs and makes them into wholesome parodies, for his movie he took his wholesome life and made it into a secular drama parody. Loved it and Daniel Radcliffe was perfectly cast.
