The world of rock biopics is about to get weird. On August 29th, the first full trailer was released for Weird: The Al Yankovic Story, which, in typical Weird Al fashion, is a sendup of rock & roll biopics like Bohemian Rhapsody and Rocket Man.

The film stars Daniel Radcliffe as a young ‘Weird’ Al Yankovic, making his way through all the classic rock & roll tropes; from parents who didn’t believe in him to worldwide fame to drug-fueled depravity.

The movie also stars Rainn Wilson as Dr. Demento, Evan Rachel Wood as Madonna, and Will Forte as a record executive.

Weird: The Al Yankovic Story will be out Nov. 4th on The Roku Channel.
