"Bring It On" is often hailed as one of the top teen movies of the early 2000s.
The film helped launch the careers of actors like Kirsten Dunst and Gabrielle Union.
Clare Kramer, who played Courtney in the film, went on to launch a major website.

Since its release in summer 2000, "Bring It On" has become one of the most beloved films of the early aughts.

The competitive-cheerleading film made its debut 20 years ago and, since then, the main cast has stayed pretty busy.

Here's what the cast of "Bring It On" has been up to over the past two decades:
