The Sun reports that Ryan Gosling is definitely the favourite to play the Paralympic hero, with Charlize Theron lined up to his now deceased girlfriend Reeva Steenkamp.
Perez Hilton reports that there are several scripts doing the rounds just now, and that it is just a matter of time before one is turned in to a motion picture.
Pistorius, who we know is currently out on bail, strongly denies that he planned to shoot his model girlfriend, claiming that he mistook her an intruder in his luxury home in South Africa.
An unnamed source has said:
"You’ve got one of the world’s most famous sportsmen under arrest and a beautiful young woman who meets a violent death. Scripts began doing the rounds within days of the scandal breaking.
"Ryan has the kind of quiet magnetism that would make this project work – plus there’s some mystery about him."
