Daniel Radcliffe's route into the film industry was via such an iconic role that it's been hard for him to shake off his wizards robes. That's not to say he hasn't done everything in his power to put the Harry Potter franchise behind him.
He's portrayed a horned-teen in the horror-comedy Horns (2013), a flatulent corpse in Swiss Army Man (2016), and a tech-nerd forced to partake in a real life version of Fortnight in Guns Akimbo (2019). Although his performances over the years have received mixed reviews, no one can accuse him of being unambitious with his choices.
Now the former savour of the Wizarding World will appear in another ridiculous (but no doubt entertaining) role as the king of absurdist parody, Werid Al Yankovic.
Way back in 2010 fans of Weird Al were teased with a Funny or Die fake-trailer which feigned to chronicle the White & Nerdy singer's life. The recent trailer looks to be equally as ridiculous, as evident by Radcliffe's curly wig and questionable moustache.
