While initially not a blockbuster hit, She's the Man is now considered a cult classic and is easily one of the funniest movies of Amanda's career.

And who could ever forget that "nose bleed" scene? To see what the extremely talented cast has been up to since graduating from Illyria, keep reading below!

Amanda Bynes (Viola Hastings)

Amanda Bynes was at the peak of her acting career in 2006 and followed up She's the Man with her role of Penny Pingleton in 2007's Hairspray.

Since then, Amanda has dealt with very public mental health issues and has taken a step back from acting to focus on her budding fashion career.

Robert Hoffman (Justin Drayton)

Viola's ex-boyfriend and Duke's nemesis Justin is not the most likable character. However, actor Robert Hoffman is nothing like the on-screen jock. 

Today, Robert has shifted his focus from acting to dance and offers online masterclasses. Fun fact: He starred in Step Up 2: The Streets.
