What do Marcia Gay Harden, Kristen Wiig, Juliette Lewis and Zoe Bell have in common? They are mixing it up with Ellen Page and Drew Barrymore in the roller ring.
Barrymore is set to play Page’s teammate the roller derby comedy Whip it! She’ll then skate behind the camera between takes to make her feature directorial debut. Go Drew!!
Harden plays a domineering ex-beauty queen who prefers to see her daughter, Bliss (Page), in pageants than skates. Wiig (”Saturday Night Live”) plays Bliss’ rowdy mentor, Malice in Wonderland. Lewis is Dinah Might, 
the star of Austin’s top team. Bell plays a medical technician moonlighting as derby star Bloody Holly.
The film begins shooting this summer in Michigan and Texas.
