Get ready to relive the thrilling and drama-filled moments of the iconic cheer competition with these memorable quotes from the Bring It On series. The 2000 American teen cheerleading comedy film, directed by Peyton Reed and written by Jessica Bendinger, has become a cult classic that inspired a six-film series.
Starring Kirsten Dunst, Eliza Dushku, Jesse Bradford, and Gabrielle Union, the original Bring It On was a box office success, earning nearly $90 million. While the subsequent films in the series didn’t feature the original cast, the franchise continued to capture the spirit of competitive cheerleading.
As a devoted fan of the movie, you might be excited to learn that a Halloween television film is planned for 2022, offering a new addition to the Bring It On universe.
These films shed light on the tremendous work and dedication required for cheerleading competitions, often underappreciated by outsiders. As a dance mom, I can attest that while the film may have exaggerated the intensity slightly, it captures the passion and commitment of these talented teams.
I recall when my daughter completely broke down over having to wear false eyelashes, a glimpse into the behind-the-scenes pressure these athletes face. It’s a world where every detail matters, and the quotes from Bring It On will take you deep into the competitive world of dance and cheer.
