Shauna Cross is inspired by all the "girl writers" working these days: "It's completely badass," she says. "I root for the girls. I'm a total girl's girl."
It's no wonder, then, that her script "Whip It!" found a home at femme-powered Flower Films, Drew Barrymore and Nancy Juvonen's shingle.

To be helmed by Barrymore and to star Ellen Page, pic is an extension of Cross' personal penchant for roller derby (her skate name is Maggie Mayhem). The scribe started playing the amateur sport a few years ago.
