Kevin Spacey is set to play former British prime minister Winston Churchill in a new biopic, which will tell the story of how Churchill defended Britain against Hitler.

The Oscar-winning actor is set to play the role in 'Captain of the Gate', according to The Hollywood Reporter.

The film will tell the tale of how the popular wartime leader - who was prime minister of Britain from 1940 to 1945, and again from 1951 to 1955 - stood against British parliament to defend the country from Nazi tyrant Adolf Hitler in World War II.
