Shania Twain to Star in New Racing Movie Opposite John Travolta and Michael Madsen

Shania Twain will make her silver screen debut in a major role opposite John Travolta, Michael Madsen and Kevin Dunn in a new dirt-track racing movie, Trading Paint, according to Variety.

In the upcoming flick, which began principal photography this week in Alabama and is directed by Karzan Kader, Travolta portrays a down-and-out dirt track racing legend who is drawn back into the winner’s circle after his son, an aspiring driver, joins a competitor’s racing team and incites an intense and dangerous competition between father and son.

According to IMDB, Shania will play a character named Becca. Although Shania has starred in more than a few big-budget music videos, this will be her first time acting in a film, other than when she portrayed herself in a small role in 2004’s I Heart Huckabees.

The movie’s release date has not been announced.
