A wild ride of teenage rebellion, rock anthems, and justice punctuated by a powerful haircut reveal.

When Billie Jean Davy (Helen Slater), a 16-year-old high schooler from a small Texas town, is wronged by a rich, spoiled bully named Hubie, she decides she’s had enough of being pushed around. With the help of her troublemaker brother (Christian Slater) and loyal friends, she transforms from a local girl-next-door into a full-blown folk hero. Sporting a white T-shirt, a headband, and an unapologetic attitude, Billie Jean’s quest for justice turns her into a media sensation. She becomes the face of teenage disillusionment, with the press dubbing her “The Legend.” Along the way, she faces off with authority, defies the system, and inspires a generation to stand up for what’s right – the embodiment of Pat Benatar’s song “Invincible.”
