A whole host of Hollywood�s leading men are competing for the lead role in the US remake of the amazing French film �13 (Tzameti)�.

The film tells the story of one desperate man who is prepared to risk everything in a game of Russian roulette to become rich and escape his pitiful life.

Leonardo DiCaprio, Heath Ledger, Toby Maguire and Joaquin Phoenix are all in the running, according to PageSix.com.

Original director Gela Bablunais will be on board for the new version that will be filmed in New York and New Jersey.

My money is on Toby Maguire.
