Evan Rachel Wood stars alongside Daniel Radcliffe in Weird: The Al Yankovic Story.
She discusses the process she went through to play Madonna.
She calls herself “the most unhinged, sort of stage mom Madonna.”

Evan Rachel Wood explained how she was able to perfectly capture Madonna in the film Weird: The Al Yankovic Story in an exclusive interview.

Evan Rachel Wood has mastered the art of expressing her inner material girl.

The Weird: The Al Yankovic Story actress from Westworld discussed the process she underwent to successfully portray Madonna in the upcoming biopic.

In an exclusive interview, she and co-star Daniel Radcliffe said, “I watched tons of interviews, and I was constantly playing them on set just so I have the cadence of her voice and the tone in my head.” “I just sort of let her loose on set and took the foundation that I had and turned it up and made it the most unhinged, sort of stage mom Madonna that one has ever seen,” the actor said.

Evan acknowledged that it was “weird” to see Daniel, who in the parody movie plays Madonna’s ex-boyfriend Weird Al Yankovic, outside of that persona during their press runs.

The former Harry Potter actor shared a similar sentiment, stating that after filming, he was “confused” to see the actress’ real hair.

So how did the co-stars achieve such great chemistry on-screen? with the aid of their acting careers from childhood.

“I feel like there was a lot of understanding because we both started acting when we were really young,” Daniel told.

“That does help a lot. I feel like chemistry is always more just about two people just being curious and open with each other and willing to go to places together. And that was all there.”

Evan added, “We were both fully committed and had a good sense of humor.”

Weird: The Al Yankovic Story, starring Quinta Brunson as Oprah Winfrey, Julianne Nicholson and Toby Huss as Weird Al’s parents, Mary and Nick Yankovic, and Rainn Wilson as broadcaster Dr. Demento, debuts on The Roku Channel on November 4.
