Teaser Trailer For Daniel Radcliffe As Weird Al Excites Fans

Daniel Radcliffe, who's had a solid line-up of movies since his Harry Potter days, is trying something lighter for a change. Three years removed from the action movie Guns Akimbo, Radcliffe is soon to star in the Roku original film about the story of Weird Al Yankovic, which just had its teaser trailer released today. Early reactions from fans include loving his new fresh haircut and the youthful manic energy he's able to channel for such an engaging character.

“Anyone got an accordion?” Daniel Radcliffe inhabits “Weird Al” Yankovic in the new teaser trailer for #Weird, the Roku original film about the parody artist, which is coming to the platform’s free streaming channel this fall.

Daniel Radcliffe is what happens when you've got talent, have made your FIRE money and have the star pull to make your passion projects successful.
Dudes been acting in whatever he wants, and never heard a bad review other than it being weird to see.

The one thing that fans did notice that seemed off compared to Weird Al was how muscular Daniel looks, with fans hinting that he might still be starring in something else coming up, possibly action-oriented again.

There's no reason for Daniel Radcliffe to be this ripped for the Weird Al biopic, so I must assume he's been cast as Wolverine for the MCU pic.twitter.com/D5I0JUibuk
