Our Boy Lance has confirmed speculation that Jake Gyllenhaal (pictured) will portray him in a biopic (that's movie-speak for a film bio). Matthew McConaughey had been up to play the part (and Matt Damon before him) but lost out to Gyllenhaal."He said that's why he has been spending so much time with them both this summer," said some unidentified source who probably also talks with Tooth. There are plenty of stories about this silliness if you care. The Daily Blabber (the name says it all, eh?) did have this interesting pespective:
"This begs the question: Does anyone really want to see a Lance Armstrong biopic at this point? Maybe back when he fresh off winning seven Tour de France titles. Or when he was married to his ex, Kristin, and they appeared to be the perfect little family with their towhead little kiddies. But in the last eight months since he dumped Sheryl Crow he's gone from heroic to horndog, hitting the Playboy mansion and trolling for chicks with Matthew. As a longtime fan, I really think he's lost his appeal."
Frankly, I think Greg Lemond should play Lance!
So, would you go to see the movie?
Ouch!! (for both YBL & Greggie)
ReplyDeleteis it me or does cycling seem more like a full contact fighting sport these days?
I wonder if they can race in one of those wire enclosed octogon rings?
Everybody wants to be Lance, right?
