File this one under “Favorite Projects We Never Expected to Exist, or Be Part Of.” We are so thrilled to partner with our friends at The Roku Channel and the ever-wonderful JJ Harrison on a new poster for the upcoming biopic, WEIRD: THE AL YANKOVIC STORY.
Largely regarded as the founding father of the song parody, Alfred “Weird Al” Yankovic is a legitimate icon of the American music industry. We’re excited that his story is finally being told in a very real and extremely true biopic. At last, we get to see how a young man with a taste for polka turned the music world on its head, by making up new words to songs that already existed.
Jokes aside, the film - directed by Eric Appel and featuring an incredible performance by Daniel Radcliffe - is a ton of fun, and we’re proud to team up with The Roku Channel on this new poster with brilliant artwork by JJ.
For anyone attending NYCC this weekend, there will be a panel for WEIRD on Sunday, October 9 that you should definitely check out. Otherwise, we recommend watching the film on The Roku Channel, when it premieres in a few weeks, on November 4.
This poster will be available on Friday, October 7 at 11AM CT on The Drop at mondoshop.com.
