It was announced in January that Radcliffe would star as Yankovic in the biopic, which is being produced by Funny or Die and will be released on The Roku Channel.

The film is being directed by Eric Appel, who, back in 2010, directed a fake trailer for this very biopic for Funny or Die, starring Aaron Paul as Weird Al.

Appel directs this real biopic from a script he co-wrote with Yankovic himself, with Mike Farah, Joe Farrell and Whitney Hodack producing for Funny Or Die, and Tim Headington, Lia Buman and Max Silva producing for Tango.

Radcliffe was spotted on the set donning a curly wig, mustache and Weird Al's signature glasses while his trademark accordion was strapped to his chest. 

That initial announcement from Roku in mid-January didn't reveal any further casting, though photos from the set clearly reveal Conan O'Brien as Andy Warhol, clad in all black with a white wig.

Jack Black was also spotted in a brown paisley shirt with a leopard print scarf with brown pants and boots.
