Whip It

THE MOVIE CHANNEL | BOX OFFICE | MORE TRAILERS

It was bound to happen - the boys club of Hollywood comedy (made up of the likes of Will Ferrell, Ben Stiller, Judd Apatow) has had it too good for too long - so it's actually pretty cool to see something like Whip It make it too the screen.

Yep, it's an all chick ensemble!

The directorial debut of Drew Barrymore, stars Ellen Page (Juno) as Bliss, a rebellious Texas teen who throws in her small town beauty pageant crown for the rowdy world of roller derby.

Marcia Gay Harden (Mystic River, Pollock) plays Bliss disapproving mother, while Kristen Wiig (Saturday Night Live) and Juliette Lewis (Old School) play roller-derby stars.

It looks fun, it looks fresh... and am I the only one slightly loving the prospect of chicks rollerblading in mini shorts?

Whip It rolls into cinemas October 9, 2009!

Whip It stars the biggest female cast ever assembled
