Penn Badgley Pictures: Penn Badgley arrives on the red carpet at the "Easy A" movie premiere held at Grauman's Chinese Theatre on September 13, 2010 in Hollywood, California.

After a little white lie about losing her virginity gets out, a clean cut high school girl sees her life paralleling Hester Prynne's in "The Scarlet Letter," which she is currently studying in school -- until she decides to use the rumor mill to advance her social and financial standing.

"Easy A" opens in theaters nationwide on September 17.
