We are cheerleaders! Bring It On was an quick cinematic vintage when it debuted in August 2000, thanks to knockout performances from Kirsten Dunst, Gabrielle Union and more cast individuals.
The comedic film followed a gaggle of rival cheerleaders as they competed to win a countrywide championship amid allegations of dishonest, blossoming love and quite a few other run-of-the-mill teenager drama. Dunst (Torrance Shipman), Union (Isis), Eliza Dushku (Missy Pantone) and Jesse Bradford (Cliff Pantone) led the cast.
“[I used to be taking pictures] in Prague, and I remember no longer turning it down, precisely, but no longer being tremendous certain about it,” Dunst advised Entertainment Weekly in October 2015. “I was like, ‘A cheerleading movie?’ It appeared like it will have been only a cheesy teenager movie, however what sealed the deal for me was chatting with the director, Peyton Reed, at the phone — he used to be simply so smart. I agreed to do it mostly as a result of Peyton.”
Union, for her phase, didn't must audition because of her previous roles in teenager motion pictures like 10 Things I Hate About You and She’s All That, however that doesn't mean the role came easily to her. “I performed football, basketball and monitor, and nothing can prepare you for what cheerleaders undergo,” she admitted. “Those rehearsals were probably the most decrease points in my life — I puzzled my very lifestyles. Everything hurt. That’s most probably why there are a lot of close-ups of me, no longer extensive pictures.”
The fan fervor surrounding the movie has caught with the cast too. “Even after I’m selling other films or my TV display, other people still need to speak about Bring It On,” Union noted. “When I run into Katie Couric, it’s the very first thing she talks about.”
Those who love Bring It On don't all the time get the quotes proper, though. “I get strains from the spoof — ‘It’s already been broughten,’” Union mentioned. “I don’t remind them that that if truth be told wasn’t in our movie.”
Dunst, meanwhile, used to be none the wiser until her costar crammed her in. “That wasn’t?” she spoke back, giggling. “I assumed it used to be.”

While celebrating the movie’s twentieth anniversary in August 2020, the cast threw around ideas for a possible sequel. “Kirsten, perhaps we’re, like, coheads of the PTA,” Union advised, to which Dunst responded: “Or we run a cheer school, like [at the Netflix docuseries] Cheer.”
