9 Feb - Austin Butler is set to portray another real-life person in the upcoming movie about Lance Armstrong.

The actor will be playing the famed cyclist in a still-untitled movie penned by "King Richard" scribe, Zach Baylin.

The film will be directed by Edward Berger of "Conclave" fame and produced by "Deliver Me From Nowhere" producer, Scott Stuber.

Known as the world's best cyclist after winning Tour de France seven consecutive times, Armstrong's legacy was marred by accusations of performance-enhancing drug use in 2012. Although he denied the allegations that stripped him of his titles, Armstrong finally admitted to them in 2013.

Butler's upcoming project includes Joseph Kosinski's "Miami Vice" as well as the Michael Man-helmed "Heat 2".

Lance Armstrong is also known for his cancer foundation
