Jessica Biel Turns to Stripping for Powder Blue

Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Drama, Independent, Casting, Trailers, Upcoming Releases

For some reason, Justin Timberlake’s ladies really like working a pole.

In the upcoming movie, Powder Blue, four random characters find themselves coming together on Christmas Eve. Jessica Biel, who once again aims to be remembered for her acting, will play a stripper trying to raise funds for her terminally-ill son.

As you can see in the trailer, the producers have relied on very little words - and many images of Jessica - to draw you into the story. (In case the quick edits had you wondering, that was an egg you saw cracked on Biel’s chest.)

Powder Blue also stars Forest Whitaker, Ray Liotta and Patrick Swayze. The movie is scheduled for release sometime in 2009.
