The Program - Film Trailer

 

From Academy Award nominated director Stephen Frears, and produced and distributed by Studio Canal comes the true story of the meteoric rise and even greater fall of one of the most celebrated and controversial men in recent history, Lance Armstrong. Originally under a working title of The Icon and now called The Program it was given rave reviews at the Sundance Film Festival 2015.

Based on the award winning book “Seven Deadly Sins" by David Walsh, and featuring a stellar cast including Ben Foster (as Armstrong), Chris O’Dowd (as Walsh), Guillaume Canet, Jesse Plemons and Dustin Hoffman, this tense and suspenseful thriller looks at how one of the greatest deceptions in the modern era was uncovered by Irish sports journalist Walsh who was convinced that Lance Armstrong's performances were fuelled by banned substances whilst Armstrong convinced the world he was a hero, winning the Tour de France seven times.

 

For all it has been given a French release date of 23rd September this year it hasn’t officially been given a UK one yet, but regardless you can check out the trailer from Studio Canal below.
