Where Are They Now: The Cast Of 'Bring It On'
It's hard to believe it's been 23 years since "Bring It On" first hit the big screen, bringing cheers, chants, and high-flying stunts to the world of competitive cheerleading. Released on this day two decades plus three years, the film quickly became a classic. But what happened to the stars who once tumbled, flipped, and cheered their way into our hearts? We know what Gabrielle Union's been up to since "Bring It On" stormed the box office. Here is the status on the cast.
Gabrielle Union
Gabrielle Union, who played Isis, has continued to act with her most recent appearances in last year's "Inspection," where she played a mother struggling with her son's sexuality. Union has always been a passionate advocate for equal pay for women. Additionally, Union and her husband, Dwayne Wade, have publicly supported their trans daughter, Zaya Wade, which has caused ridiculous backlash in some circles. Nonetheless, they are shining examples of loving parents.
Kirsten Dunst
