Oscar Pistorius: Blade Runner Killer Written By Amber Benson To Have It’s UK Premiere On The 11th of February

In September 2017, it was revealed that Amber has written Oscar Pistorius: Blade Runner Killer a new movie for the Lifetime Network. Lifetime UK have now confirmed that it will have its UK premiere on Sunday, the 11th of February at 9pm.

Earlier in her career Amber starred in two original movies for the Lifetime Network playing Danni Hartford in a fun festive film Holiday Wishes and Lori Madison in the romantic comedy 7 Things To Do Before I’m 30, still one of my favourite movies starring Amber.

Her latest work for the Lifetime Network is very different as she steps behind the camera to write the script for Blade Runner Killer. A movie which looks at the life of former Paralympic Champion and Olympic competitor Oscar Pistorius. A double leg amputee who learned to run using metal blades and conquered the track at Paralympic level and went on to compete in the Olympics.

The movie looks at the relationship between Oscar and model Reeva Steenkamp leading up to the fateful events on Valentine's Day night 2013 when Reeva was tragically shot to death in Pistorius's home.

The movie also examines the trial that gripped South Africa and the world. Oscar was convicted of culpable homicide (manslaughter). Later following an appeal he was retried and convicted of murder. On the 24th of November 2017 The South African Supreme Court increased his sentence by a further 13 years and 5 months. South Africa's National Prosecuting Agency described the original 6 year murder sentence handed down by original trial judge Thokozile Masipa as "shockingly too lenient".
I have found very little information on the Lifetime UK website. Lifetime’s UK TV Channel is available on Sky channel 156, Virgin channels 208/209, BT channel 329 and TalkTalk channel 329.
 
Everyone at AmberBenson.TV is delighted that Amber was given this opportunity and that UK fans now have the chance to see it. We wish her every success with this project.
