Bradley Cooper is reportedly in talks for the Lance Armstrong role.
Bradley Cooper may just be getting exactly what he's wished for. Last week the "Silver Linings Playbook" actor told BBC News that he would be interested in playing Lance Armstrong in the upcoming biopic, and now, director JJ Abrams said that he has been speaking to Cooper about the part.
"[Cooper] sent me an email and we've been talking," Abrams told ET.
"I would be interested in [playing Armstrong]," Cooper told BBC News. "I think he's fascinating. What a fascinating character."
Abrams is directing the film adaptation of Juliet Macur's upcoming "Cycle of Lies: The Fall of Lance Armstrong."
Matthew McConaughey
McConaughey has been on a career renaissance of late (the McConaissance, as he told HuffPost Entertainment), and this is the type of juicy leading role that could get him an Oscar. Since he's friends with Armstrong, however, maybe put the odds of this happening at Infinity-to-1.
Jake Gyllenhaal
It almost happened once before ...
Jeremy Renner
Squint and these two could play brothers.
Ryan Gosling
Every movie benefits from more Gosling.
Sam Worthington
In case Jeremy Renner is too expensive.
Joseph Gordon-Levitt
Because he starred in "Premium Rush." (See, also: The bike behind him.)
Tom Cruise
Both Cruise and Armstrong weathered career low points opposite Oprah Winfrey.
Jared Leto
Remember when Leto played Steve Prefontaine? He just needs to grow his eyebrows back.
Damian Lewis
Because Lewis is used to playing guys everyone hates.
Christian Bale
Bale won an Oscar for playing a drug addict in "The Fighter"; imagine what he could do with Armstrong's sordid PED history.
Kevin Bacon
Kevin Bacon can put his "Quicksilver" skills to good use!
Rob Lowe
Picture him with a buzz cut. They kind of look alike?
Daniel Day-Lewis
Day-Lewis is so versatile, he could play Armstrong <em>and</em> the bike.
