Well it took about ten minutes to throw a script together by the looks of it, but an Armstrong biopic is in the works already.

J.J. Abrams and his production company Bad Robot will be given the project to give Lance's life story a movie make over, according to a spokesperson for the company yesterday.

AP are reporting that Abrams got the rights to Juliet Macur's book on Lance, Cycle of Lies: The Fall of Lance Armstrong and he's planning to put together a biopic on the world's most famous disgraced former cyclist.

Judging by the title of the book, we're guessing that the movie might not be the very complimentary to the Texan.

Lance's story has taken a lot of twists and turns recently since the doping scandal broke, but some great information has come out since he's gone on television with Oprah to discuss his continued and systematic cheating during several Tour de France races.

No word on stars or script writers yet, but this one will definitely fill theatres if they can get this out quickly, so they'd better get on their bikes.
