Very exciting news! Juliette Lewis is one of my all time biggest favorite actresses! <3

Marcia Gay Harden, Kristen Wiig, Juliette Lewis and Zoe Bell are mixing it up with Ellen Page and Drew Barrymore in the roller ring.

Barrymore will play Page’s teammate in Mandate Pictures’ roller derby comedy “Whip it!” then skate behind the camera between takes to make her feature directorial debut.

Harden plays an overbearing ex-beauty queen who would rather 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.

Harden is repped by CAA and Framework Entertainment. Wiig is repped by UTA and Odenkirk Talent Management. Lewis is repped by Don Buchwald and Associates, and Bell is repped by CAA and Drama 3/4.

Several new candids of Ellen out and about in Los Angeles and also some new on the set photos of Ellen together with Drew Barrymore, getting ready to start filming Whip It!

Actress Ellen Page, who’s gained notice for her role in the critically acclaimed comedy ‘Juno,’ is set to star in Drew Barrymore’s directorial debut called ‘Whip It,’ according to Variety. The film, which is set to begin shooting this summer, is about a small town Texas teenager who is always being pressured into entering beauty pageants, but joins a roller derby team instead.

“I really admire how Drew constantly challenges herself as an artist,” Page said. “She’s proven herself as an actress and a producer, and I have no doubt she’ll bring great vision and creativity to the director’s chair. I can’t wait to kick ass on wheels!”
