The final ladies of
Drew Barrymore's
Whip It are ready to roll. Joining Barrymore and the previously cast Ellen Page in the roller derby comedy will be
Marcia Gay Harden,
Kristen Wiig,
Juliette Lewis and
Zoe Bell, per the
Reporter.
Harden will play Page's mom, a former beauty queen who's less-than-pleased to see her daughter in skates instead of tiaras, while Wiig, Lewis and Bell will all play roller skaters.
As a huge ladies' derby fan, this seems like a movie whose time has come - but will you be skating into theaters to see it? (With movie-skater handles like "Malice in Wonderland," can you really resist?)
