Teen Wolf stars Colton Haynes and Tyler Hoechlin will star in new feature film Bigger, which will tell the real life story of bodybuilding pioneers Joe and Ben Weider.

The brothers created the fitness industry as we know it today, with Joe founding the International Federation of Bodybuilding and discovering a young Arnold Schwarzenegger.

Tyler Hoechlin will take on the role of Joe Weider, while Colton Haynes has been cast as nutrition enthusiast Jack Lalanne.

Bigger was written by Brad and Ellen Furman, Andy Weiss and Gallo, reports Deadline.

“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,” Gallo said in a statement.

Steve Lee Jones of Bee Holder Productions added: “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.”

Production on Bigger is due to start in Alabama next month.

Colton Haynes is currently starring in American Horror Story: Cult, which began in the US and UK earlier this month.
