Congrats to Jake! Lance Armstrong has confirmed the rumors that Jake will play him in an upcoming movie. We really liked the idea of Matt Damon as Lance. Matthew McConaughey was also up for the part, but lost the role to Jake. Lance said that this is the reason the 3 have been spending so much time together this summer. Who knew it was an audition or competition between the two? Let's hope the three will still be BFF after today's news.
It's so good to see Jake in something other than spandex. Lots more pics of Jake and sister Maggie at their dad Stephen's poetry reading so read more

















Maison Martin Margiela
Nike
Bottega Veneta
ohhh,it's starting to all make sense now!!the spandex,the biking,hanging out.. it was all for the movie.
1ooo-matt lost the role to jake to play Lance?? will there b trouble in the threesome paradise now??
I dont see the appeal in jake but this is a surprise!
2i dont think jake would make a very good lance. i just dont see it. i DO wanna see matthew mcconaughey in a movie as a surfer or something. a whole hour and a half of my man shirtless!!!!
3Team DC, yummy Franco!
Jake is a better pick because MMs body is not like Lances at all!
4doesn't matter to me, I will not be seeing this movie. Jake or no Jake. I'd rather watch Donnie Brascoe again. lol
5sorry Donnie Darko not Brasco! lol very similar titles, very different films.
6I don't think MM can get any hotter than in A Time to Kill. wow he was gorgeous in that.
7ooo,team dc-very yummy James Franco!!
8I wonder who will play Sheryl Crow in the movie?
I think we need a poll.
A) Kate Hudson
9B) Rachel McAdams
C) Reese Witherspoone
D) fill in the blank
ohhh thanks izzy, is it ok if i call you that? I watched Tristan & Isolde yesterday and james convinced me he was more worthy of my lust than Gabriel Aubry!
10I bet Sheryl doesn't even make the script.
11Yay 4 Jakey! I Feel bad for his testacle though.
12lol @ dwg! too funny.
We want it authentic damn it!
13I'm not feeling the pubes on his face.
14I'm not sure if Jake is the right pick.
15hhhmmmm...I don't think any of those girls work, but I'm at a loss as who to suggest... This is going to bother me now...
16i almost said Maggie G. But then I thought about it...
17I love both Lance and Jakey, so obviously I love this!! And I agree, i dont think cheryl will be in this movie.. however, Lance's first wife Kristin probably will.. Lance's book was great so it will be interesting to see how the movie stands up
18Faye! lol Are you sure you wanted to?
19Well consider the fact the Sheryl is older than Lance and has a certain body type and look, not many to consider. That is if she is in the movie which she's been part of the story for a while so I would bet she would be. She also famous which means she'd be a draw to the audience. Plus they could license her music too. Take all that in consideration.
20It should be all about mommy! Maybe you should do a poll who'll play her...
21Yeah um... I have no desire to catch this flick.
22Only if she gives her consent to the music Griffin. I hope she doesn't. He had won like 6 tours before he met here and battled cancer and won, I don't think the story needs Sheryl.
23i heart jake and he will do a great job! team i love the franco avatar! im drooling...gracey good call on a time to kill. mm was super fine and that movie was horrificly sad! donnie darko and brasco were both good so its all good on the typo!
24Personally I won't see it either. I admire Lance for his courage and determination, but I don't care to see Jake pedel his ass all over the screen for two hours. I don't find him appealing at all. Nor does the public.
25Matthew must be gutted...he wanted to be Lance's bum boy
26My fave Jake playing Lance the steroid boy???? Oh no... no.... no!
27Lance's life is that interesting that they are going to make a movie about him ... Cancer survivor and 7x Tour De France winner ... Wooooooo WHOOO !
Maybe that's why Jake and Matt were spending so much time with him, to "Study" him!
28And no one dies at the end, what the hell kind of movie is that ... I like when someone dies. lol ! A real tear jerker
29Me and Jaxon are gonna go watch a movie that has nothing to do w/spandex shorts.
30sorry griffin, i have to disagree with you on this one! i could watch jake pedal his ass across the screen for a good couple of hours
right into my home actually...
31matt is the man...he is way hotter i
32Haha @ gracey, nah.
33hasnt his sis maggie popped yet?
34he's always so adorable
