The project isn't to be confused with several rival Armstrong films in the pipeline including an untitled project with Jay Roach (Game Change) attached to direct from a script by Scott Z. Burns (Contagion), the J.J. Abrams' produced "Cycle Of Lies"--an adaptation of New York Times reporter Juliet Macur's  book at Paramount, or the soon to be released documentary "The Armstrong Lie".
