'Whip It' FIRST LOOK: Ellen Page At The Roller Derby

Fox Searchlight has just released the trailer for 'Whip It,' a girl power and indie-rock infused coming-of-age film starring Ellen Page and helmed by first-time director Drew Barrymore.

Ellen Page, in her usual angsty misfit role, is a foundering teen beauty contestant in her small Texas town until roller derby queens Juliette Lewis and Kristen Wiig help her find her place in the rink. This isn't the plan her mom (Marcia Gay Harden) had in mind, but it looks like a lot of fun. The terrific supporting cast also includes Jimmy Fallon, Eve and Daniel Stern.

'Whip It' opens October 9.
