The rumors are spreading about possible actors being considered for the Oscar Pistoriusbiopic. Earlier we reported Ryan Gosling is in the lead to take on the role of the South African Olympic runner who has been accused of killing his 29-year-old girlfriend Reeva Steenkamp. Now it looks like Charlize Theron is being eyed for the role of Steenkamp. Although we dont have the outcome on the Oscar Pistoriuscase, it looks like a film is already in the works . Reports have said that an unknown studio is currently developing two potential scripts. Our guess is that they will be finished after the trials outcome which may take years.

It isnt completely unbelievable as Goslings career is red hot right now with The Place Beyond The Pines receiving rave reviews. In addition the actor kind of looks like him amputee runner.

Gosling and Pistorius. Could Hollywood be gearing up to turn "Blade Runner" Oscar Pistorius's life into a blockbuster movie? Los Angeles insiders say not only are there two scripts in development, but studios have already approached Ryan Gosling and Charlize Theron to step into the roles of the South African Paralympic star and his slain girlfriend Reeva Steenkamp. Pistorius shot Steencamp, 29, to death in the middle of the night at their home in Pretoria, South Africa, claiming he believed she was an intruder. The ensuing scandal seems ready-made for the Hollywood treatment: Overnight, Pistorius went from media darling and beloved national hero to murder suspect; Steencamp was a model and reality TV star whose death was all the more tragic after she overcame a broken back and had to relearn how to walk. "Youve got one of the worlds most famous sportsmen under a! rrest and a beautiful young woman who meets a violent death," a source told the Daily Mail . "

Ah, lovely Charlize Theron. Last time we saw her she was highstepping with Magic Mike himself, Channing Tatum, at the Oscars and before that owning it as evil mirror-botherer Ravenna in Snow White And The Huntsman . And before that she was being chased by a giant space cruller in Prometheus . Her newest project - a so-far untitled crime thriller for Paramount - is grittier and more Earthbound than any of those. Highstepping aside. With a script by Dan Nowak, writer of AMC's The Killing, the film is pitched as similar in tone to The Departed (another Theron project) and End Of Watch . According to The Hollywood Reporter , the story revolves around a group of corrupt vigilante cops. No word on whether Theron will be one of Alonzo Harrises or one of the Serpicos. It's another addition to a full-looking Theron dancecard, with an adaptation of Gillian 'Gone Girl' Flynn's Dark Places , SethMcFarlane's A Million Ways To Die In The West and Fred Savage's Ladies
