Tom Hanks Developing Pistorius Biopic

Tom Hanks is currently bidding on the story of South African athlete Oscar Pistorius for his Playtone company to produce reports The Chronicle Herald.

Pistorius is the first runner who has came close to competing in the Olympic Games, even though both legs were amputated below the knee as a baby.

At present, the IOC is trying to determine whether the former water polo and rugby player's artificial legs should be considered as either performance enhancers or running shoes.
