The Program (2015)

Ben Foster stars as Lance Armstrong, the seven consecutive Tour de France winner who was stripped of his titles after it became clear he was using performance enhancing drugs the entire time. The film follows Armstrong’s career from his testicular cancer diagnosis to the doping scandal that led to his downfall. I don’t know if Armstrong is an asshole in real life, but Foster certainly portrays him that way, intimidating and berating anyone who got in his way or threatened his rise to the podium. Just like it seems in Armstrong’s career, there isn’t much room for anyone else but the Armstrong character in this film, though Jesse Plemons as teammate Floyd Landis does his best to stand out in his role as a whistleblower.
