Tyler Hoechlin will play bodybuilding pioneer Joe Weider and Colton Haynes will play fitness guru Jack Lalanne in Bigger, a biopic about Weider and his brother Ben, who launched the modern bodybuilding movement, discovering Arnold Schwarzenegger along the way.
Writes Deadline:
“The brothers’ story sets a powerful example of what hard work and extreme focus can achieve for the youth of today. These brothers literally changed the world” says Jones.
Gallo adds, “It’s beyond inspirational, and will resonate with not only the massive crowd of those who have found the balance of body and mind as essential for a healthy life but also the throngs of people that were inspired by Joe and his Mr. Olympia events.”
