Far from her first film, Do Nothing Bitches is the latest in what is becoming quite the repertoire for Roussey. She’s previously held roles in The Expendables 3, Furious 7, and Entourage, and is also set to star in a Road House remake, Mile 22 with Pete Berg, and her own biopic, My Fight/Your Fight.
The title of the upcoming Fey/Rousey film is a direct nod to a phrase that Rousey herself coined in a now famous July 2015 episode of UFC’s vlog. “I have this one term for the kind of woman that my mother raised me to not be. And I call it a do-nothing bitch,” she says. “A kind of chick that just tries to be pretty and be taken care of by somebody else. That’s why I think it’s hilarious when people say my body looks masculine or something like that. Listen, just because my body was developed for a purpose other than fucking millionaires, doesn’t mean it’s masculine. I think it’s femininely badass as fuck because there’s not a single muscle in my body that isn’t for a purpose. Because I’m not a do-nothing bitch.”
And if that in and of itself doesn’t make for a must-see film, we don’t know what does.
