Released in 2000, 'Bring It On' followed Torrance Shipman (Kirsten Dunst) who inherits the title of captain of her cheerleading squad and endeavors to lead them to their sixth consecutive win at the National Cheerleading Competition. There's only one problem: their newest recruit, the rebellious Missy (Eliza Dushku), informs the new captain that they've been using stolen routines to win the title for years, unbeknownst to Torrance.

'Bring It On' was a hit at the box office, and received somewhat positive reviews for its smart script and spoofing of cheerleading culture. The film has gone on to gain a cult following on home media over the years, and spawned four direct-to-video sequels. Now, 14 years later, we revisit the cast of this beloved teen comedy to see what they're up to these days.

Then: Kirsten Dunst played the role of Torrance Shipman, who inherits the title of cheer captain for her squad and must scramble to come up with a new routine when she discovers her old captain stole their routine from an inner-city school. Dunst previously rose to prominence as a child actress with roles in 'Interview with the Vampire' and 'Little Women,' and as a teen she starred in 'The Virgin Suicides' and 'Drop Dead Gorgeous.'

Now: Dunst went on to portray Mary Jane Watson in Sam Raimi's 'Spider-Man' trilogy, and appeared in 'Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind,' as well as 'Marie Antoinette' -- the latter of which reunited her with her 'Virgin Suicides' director Sofia Coppola. As an adult she's taken roles in darker indie films like 'All Good Things,' 'Melancholia' and 'Bachelorette.' She recently made cameos in 'Anchorman 2: The Legend Continues' and Sofia Coppola's 'The Bling Ring,' and appears next in 'The Two Faces of January' and 'Midnight Special.'

Then: Eliza Dushku played Missy Pantone, a new rebellious transfer student and former gymnast who joins the squad and clues Torrance in to her former captain's thievery. At the time, Dushku was known for her similarly edgy role as Faith, the dark slayer on the series 'Buffy the Vampire Slayer.'

Now: Dushku went on to appear on Joss Whedon's 'Buffy' spinoff 'Angel,' as well as Whedon's short-lived show 'Dollhouse.'
