Drew Barrymore and Ellen Page's "Whip It!" - first trailer

Checkout the first trailer of upcoming comedy film "Whip It!" starring Ellen Page, Drew Barrymore and Marcia Gay Harden. It is also Drew Barrymore's directorial debut.

Based on Shauna Cross'novel Derby Girl, the story follows a misfit girl named Bliss (Ellen Page) who is living in Bodeen, Texas constantly being pressured to enter beauty pageants by her beauty-pageant-obsessed mother, so she joins a roller derby league instead.

Drew recently said on her debut as a director, “Everything I’ve learned throughout my whole life has been going into this piggy bank, and I just smashed it all over the floor for this one.”

Other cast includes Kristen Wiig, Juliette Lewis, Zoë Bell and Eve Jeffers.

Ready to hit the theaters October 9, 2009.
