The Program centres around an Irish sports journalist David Walsh (Chris O’Dowd), becomes convinced that Lance Armstrong’s (Six Feet Under‘s Ben Foster) performances during the Tour de France victories are fueled by banned substances. With this conviction, he starts hunting for evidence that will expose Armstrong.
The film also stars Lee Pace, Dustin Hoffman, Jesse Plemons and No Offence‘s Elaine Cassidy, and is directed by Stephen Frears and anything to expose that dodgy get Armstrong, any further, sounds like a good thing to me, so I’m looking forward to it.
The Program hasn’t yet got a UK or US release date, however.
