Bring It On Takes On New Spirit in 2nd Sequel
Bring It On 3 (Working Title), the highly anticipated third installment of the wildly successful Universal Pictures film franchise about status and rivalry in the cheerleading world, began principal photography on Monday, October 24th in the Los Angeles area.
Universal Studios Home Entertainment Family Productions and Beacon Pictures present Bring It On 3, a Universal DVD Original slated for release in 2006.
Bring It On 3 stars talented young performers Hayden Panettiere (Ice Princess, Raising Helen, Racing Stripes) and Solange Knowles Smith (Johnson Family Vacation, "The Proud Family") and features gifted newcomers Gus Carr, Marcy Rylan, Cindy Chiu, Giovonnie Samuels, Francia Almendarez, Gary Leroi Gray, Danielle Savre and Jessie Fife. Also on board in a special appearance is Def Jam Records artist Rihanna, whose dance hit "Pon de Replay" from her debut album "Music Of The Sun" dominated the charts this summer.
Shake your pom poms! Bring It On 3 is a production with new moves, new music and eye-popping dance sequences. Britney Allen (Hayden Panettiere) is living the dream -- the cheerleader's dream. At the elite seaside campus of Pacific Vista High School, Britney is captain of the cheerleading squad and the envy of everyone at school- including one overly-ambitious teammate. When Britney hears about a forthcoming audition for a top cheer squad to appear in recording star Rihanna's upcoming television special, she is determined that her Pirates cheer squad will capture the coveted spot.
But Britney's life turns from cheer-topia to cheer-tastrophe when her father's job takes her family to Crenshaw Heights, a multi-ethnic working-class neighborhood east of Los Angeles. At her new school, Britney is viewed with suspicion by most of the students, especially by Camille (Solange Knowles Smith), the overly confident and acerbic leader of the Crenshaw Heights Warriors cheerleading squad. No one is more surprised than Camille, however, when Britney proves herself and secures a spot on the Warriors' cheer squad. Britney and her new teammates work feverishly to prepare for the audition for Rihanna, incorporating some edgy new moves into their performance. Now the pressure is on, as the Warriors find themselves locked in a high stakes cheer-off with Pacific Vista, Britney's old school!
During the fight to the finish, friendships,loyalties and talents are tested-but only one team can come out on top.
