After six films and countless cast members over the years, it’s no surprise that Bring It On has continued to relish in its success from the noughties.
The original film certainly holds a level of nostalgia for many fans, particularly having seen the success of the series carry on, with the latest instalment released in 2017.
Looking back at the original cast, many have gone on to land some large roles, while others have faced challenges elsewhere – and even a shock death.
To celebrate 21 years of Bring It On, Daily Star Online has looked at what the original members of the film are up to.

Kristen has appeared in a handful of blockbuster movies following her time on Bring It On, including the Spider-Man franchise and Marie Antoinette.
Despite landing roles outside of Bring It On, Kirsten has struggled in the years that followed, adding that she believes people just think she’s the girl from Bring It On.
She is still incredible successful and has appeared in TV series over the years, and also welcomed her first child in 2018 with husband Jesse Plemons, before announcing her second pregnancy in 2021.

Gabrielle Union has had an incredibly successful career with stints in Bad Boys 2, Being Mary Jane, LA’s Finest and Breaking In – and she was also a judge on America’s Got Talent for one season.
She was fired from the network after one season and later launched a lawsuit over misconduct and racial discrimination on the show.
NBC and Union reached an “amicable resolution” they stated in a joint statement last year, adding that the network remains “committed to ensuring an inclusive and supportive working environment”.
Eliza Dushku

Eliza is known for her time on both Bring It On and Buffy the Vampire Slayer, she was also signed on to play a major role in three episodes of CBS show Bull, with plans to make her a full-time cast member.
However, after comments that made her uncomfortable during her time on the show from the show’s star Michael Weatherly, and after she confronted him, she was written out of the show.
After she was written out, she went through mediation with CBS and a settlement was agreed of $9.5million (£6.9m).
Although Eliza hasn’t appeared in any blockbuster films in recent years, she has still focused on work elsewhere, as she focuses on activism and has recently welcomed her second baby.

Jesse took on multiple roles after his time on Bring It On, though most of them were in the noughties, though he has featured in the 2017 series of Shooter.
His focus aside from acting appears to be travelling with his wife, Andrea Watrouse and the pair announced they were expecting their first baby earlier this year.
Andrea gave birth to their baby Maggie on May 29, 2021.

Shamari is best known for being in the pop/R&B girl group Blaque, which is still going strong today.
While she hasn’t appeared in a wide range of films, she did make her debut on the Real Housewives of Atlanta, but stepped down due to “poor editing”.
She appeared on season 11 of the show but reportedly wasn’t happy with how she was portrayed so chose to step down.
The beauty now posts about her life on Instagram to her 454,000 followers, with her husband, her twins and her glamorous looks often popping up on her profile.
