Kirsten Dunst is bringing on the early 2000s nostalgia.
The "Spider-Man" star, 42, on Saturday attended a screening of her classic cheerleading movie "Bring It On" — and even more than 20 years later, she still remembered the lines.
In a video that Dunst shared on Instagram, she was seen clapping along while reciting the memorable cheer that opens the movie, which was released in 2000.
Another video shared on TikTok showed the actress delivering remarks at the screening in Los Angeles, which paired "Bring It On" with another Dunst movie, Sofia Coppola's "The Virgin Suicides."
"I'm T-T-Torrance!" Dunst told the audience, quoting the movie. "Your captain Torrance!"

Dunst starred as cheerleader Torrance Shipman in "Bring It On" alongside Eliza Dushku and Gabrielle Union. She told the cheering crowd she was "so overwhelmed" and was there with her friends and family to watch the movies with an audience for the first time since she was a teenager.
The actress was 17 when she starred in "Bring It On," which grossed $90 million at the box office and spawned numerous sequels. It was directed by Peyton Reed, who went on to helm Marvel's "Ant-Man" trilogy.

Speaking to "Good Morning America" earlier this year, Dunst said she was "just as shocked as anyone" that "Bring It On" was such a success and confirmed she would be interested returning for a potential reunion.

"What am I gonna say, no?" she said at the time. "But it would have to be such a good script, because those things can be sad sometimes when they're not good."
Last year, Union teased to Variety that "we've been developing a sequel" to "Bring It On," although she was unsure when it might happen. "For folks who don't exactly understand how long development can take in Hollywood, that could be five minutes or 50 years," she joked.
Dunst most recently starred in the Alex Garland war drama "Civil War" alongside her real-life husband, Jesse Plemons. In 2022, she received a best supporting actress Oscar nomination for her performance in "The Power of the Dog."
