You knew they were going to make one eventually, and on November 11 Oscar Pistorius: Blade Runner Killer will air on Lifetime.

We should make this clear from the start: it is not a documentary, so expect everything to be hyped up in a way that only Lifetime can.

Via Entertainment Weekly:

Andreas Damm plays Oscar Pistorius, a South African runner who rose to fame through the Paralympic Games and ultimately became the first double-leg amputee to participate in the Olympics. He gained even more notoriety when his girlfriend, model Reeva Steenkamp (Toni Garrn), was shot and killed in his home — and he was found guilty of homicide.

The Lifetime movie will tell the full story leading up to the fatal Valentine’s Day event, including the relationship between Pistorius and Steenkamp, as well as the courtroom trials that followed.

You can make your own mind up after watching the trailer:

One thing I’m sure we an all agree on is just how terrible some of those Saffa accents are.
