--> "We sat down and looked at that character and said that we want to make this character really watchable, but we don't want it to become knowingly militant. We want her to have a sense of humor and be a really strong character. I think she was able to find what was cool about that character that in a way I doubt other actresses could have."
* ActorSharedBackground: Both Creator/KirstenDunst and Creator/GabrielleUnion were cheerleaders in high school. school (although they both admitted they weren't athletic to the extent of the characters in the movie). And the cheer that Missy hears from the hotel window is one from Kristen's high school alma mater.mater.
* CastTheExpert:
** Any actors auditioning for the cheerleaders were required to do a cheer and cast based off their rhythm and athleticism.

Additionally, the reveal that Big Red had been stealing the routines from the Clovers would be much harder to pull off in the days of the internet, social media and more widespread videos among teens. Big Red probably wouldn't have to steal routines from them; she could likely get inspiration from [=YouTube=]. As could the Toros later in the film.
