Music biopic parodies and mockumentaries are hardly a new genre, which has become popular over the years thanks to films from This Is Spinal Tap to Walk Hard: The Dewey Cox Story. Typically, these parodies involve tortured artists who find commercial success, only to fly too close to the sun and come crashing back to earth — whether it be due to sex, drugs, and rock and roll, infighting with bandmates, or a combination thereof.
However, we can promise you that Weird: The Al Yankovic Story, which premieres on The Roku Channel this Friday, is the only music biopic parody you’ll ever see that features Madonna becoming the kingpin of a Colombian drug cartel after taking out Pablo Escobar.
