Considered one of the most famous British filmmakers, Stephen Frears will be shooting his new film in Alpe d'Huez, which follows the Lance Armstrong's highs and lows on the international cycling circuit.
Undoubtedly the life of Lance has all the drama to make an interesting film, from fighting off cancer and winning seven consecutive Tour de France titles to being stripped of his titles in a doping scandal.

Extras are being currently being recruited, some 850 men and women between 16 and 75 years are needed for the shoot.
