Lifetime has released the first trailer for "Oscar Pistorius: Blade Runner Killer," a biopic about the rise and fall of Paralympian Oscar Pistorius, who was convicted of murdering his girlfriend on Valentine's Day in 2013. The film is scheduled for release this November.



Pistorius is played by Andreas Damm. Toni Garrn plays Reeva Steenkamp, his ill-fated supermodel girlfriend. The film was written by Amber Benson, who is best known for playing Tara on "Buffy the Vampire Slayer."

The real-life Pistorius is currently sentenced to six years in prison but may receive a harsher punishment after an upcoming hearing which will take place just days before the release of the Lifetime film.
