Johnny Knoxville ("Jackass," "Men in Black 2") stars in the decidedly un-PC movie about a man who pretends to be mentally challenged so that he can compete in the Special Olympics. ?I'm probably going to hell just for writing this preview.

Knoxville plays Steve Barker, a luckless corporate yes-man who can't get a break. ?In order to pay off a debt, Barker decides to rig the Special Olympics but gets more than he bargained for when he is out-classed and out-matched by his fellow athletes.

The movie co-stars Brian Cox ("Troy," "X-Men 2") and Katherine Heigl ("100 Girls").

"The Ringer" is directed by Barry W. Blaustein ("Beyond the Mat," "Coming to America" [as screenwriter]) and written by Ricky Blitt (TV's "Family Guy").

The movie is due out November of this year.
