The tale of the Kiwi woman who founded the oldest hip-hoppers dance group in the world has been bought by a Hollywood producer.
Founder and manager of the Hip Op-eration crew, Billie Jordan, 46, said the rights to her life-story had been sold to a top film production company.
Her crew, of seven members aged 71 - 96, based on Waiheke Island, held the Guinness World Record for the oldest dance group.
Jordan couldn't divulge which production company had bought the rights, but said the making of the movie would begin as early as next year.
"I get to attend the USA film premiere, which will be exciting and I'm sure I'll be having many surreal 'pinch me', moments over the next few years."
