A film about Weird Al is a go, and Harry Potter star Radcliffe is the star.

About time they made a movie about this underappreciated man.
Hail to thyself
For I am my own master
I am my own god
I require no shepherd
For I am no sheep.

OK, but it can't possibly live up to this unmade project.

Makes me wonder if Allan Sherman's going to get a mention......

Quote"The biopic holds nothing back, exploring every facet of Yankovic's life, from his meteoric rise to fame with early hits like 'Eat It' and 'Like a Surgeon' to his torrid celebrity love affairs and famously depraved lifestyle," reads the film's official release. "WEIRD: The Al Yankovic Story takes audiences on a truly unbelievable journey through Yankovic's life and career, from gifted child prodigy to the greatest musical legend of all time."

Quote"When my last movie UHF came out in 1989, I made a solemn vow to my fans that I would release a major motion picture every 33 years, like clockwork. I'm very happy to say we're on schedule," Yankovic said in a statement. "And I am absolutely thrilled that Daniel Radcliffe will be portraying me in the film. I have no doubt whatsoever that this is the role future generations will remember him for."
Well, I'm sold.

I'm certain he and Dr. Demento get a mention at some point.

It's this, but feature length.  Same writer, with Al on board as co-writer and producer.
