The belovedBring It Onfranchise is getting a spooky spin-off!
On Thursday,Syfyannounced the production ofBring It On: Halloween, a horror installment to the cheerleading movie series, as part of its 2021/2022 slate.
The movie follows two rival high school cheer squads gearing up to compete in the national cheerleading competition. However, the Rancho Carne High School Toro’s new captain Torrance (Dunst) finds out their team’s five-time winning routines were stolen from the Clovers, a hip-hop cheerleading team from East Compton.
The teen movie became a hit, and grossed over $90 million at the box office.
Dunst, Union, Reed and Bendinger celebrated the cheerleading classic’s 20th anniversary last year witha virtual reunion, with theBring It Onstars discussing the impact the movie had and a potential sequel.
“The impact, 20 years later, that this movie had and continues to have, that’s awesome,” Union gushed. “So whatever that we may one day come up with, I mean, Kirsten, maybe we’re like co-heads of the PTA. I don’t know.”
“Or we run a cheer school likeCheer,” Dunst suggested, referencing the Netflix documentary about Navarro College’s championship-winning cheerleading team. “Who knows.”
The cheerleading comedy became an instant classic, and saw five subsequent films release afterward includingBring It On Again(2004),Bring It On: All or Nothing(2006) and the latest installmentBring It On: Worldwide #Cheersmack(2017).
Bring It On: Halloweenis set to release on non-theatrical platforms in 2022.
