Radcliffe was actually chosen by Yankovic himself for the biopic. The "Harry Potter" star revealed that a silly moment in 2010 led to him landing the role.
"When I talked to Al for the first time, I was like, 'I'm immensely flattered by the idea that you would pick me to play you, but like, why me?'" he said during an appearance on "The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon."

"I sang 'The Elements' next to Colin Farrell and a very bemused Rihanna, who I think was like, 'Who is this kid and why is he singing all of the elements?'" Radcliffe recalled. "And I guess Al saw that and was like, 'This guy maybe gets it.' And so picked me."
Radcliffe also gushed about meeting Yankovic and having the opportunity to work alongside him for the film.
"He's the best," Radcliffe said during an interview with "Good Morning America."

"I know everyone says this about him, but it's so lovely to meet somebody that you look up to and you know as a hero to so many people, and to have them just be kind and fun and sweet. I can now go to my grave saying that I've had accordion lessons with Weird Al."
"Weird: The Al Yankovic Story" will premiere Nov. 4 on The Roku Channel.
