Hello, Movie Mavens! Welcome back to the B Movies Blog. Today, we’re popping where we think some of our favorite movie couples ended up into the ol’ VCR.
We all know the formula for the traditional love story arc:
- Our love interests are introduced
- They get close
- They undergo some sort of conflict
- They come back together
- Roll credits
But what happens AFTER those credits roll?
What happens after graduation or college or marriage?
Friends, that’s where I come in.
Today, we’re going to check in with five couples from five beloved movies to see where they ended up.
Now, before I even start, let’s throw out a couple of disclaimers:
First and foremost, this is clearly just for fun, and I have no affiliation with these films whatsoever.
Secondly, I want to reiterate that I’m just a silly goose who writes about pop culture on the internet.
And finally, if y’all like this one, I’m absolutely down to take on more couples.
Alrighty, that should do us for disclaimers and introductions.
Without further ado, let’s check in with some iconic couples
Missy and Torrance from Bring It On
Shortly into Torrance and Cliff’s relationship, she realized she was with the wrong twin. Torrance finally told Missy she had feelings for her, and the two have been together since. They currently live in L.A. and coach cheer together on the weekends, with Missy coaching gymnastics full-time and Torrance working as a choreographer for some of the biggest names in entertainment. They also know every single word to every song on Chappell Roan’s The Rise and Fall of a Midwest Princess.
Cliff is supportive of their relationship, is happily married to Darcy, and tells a mean dad joke. Darcy and Cliff have three kids who absolutely worship their aunts. Their oldest daughter is going to be a freshman this year and has every intention of auditioning for the Toros.
Megan and Graham from But I’m a Cheerleader
Megan and Graham have four kids and are now expecting their first grandchild. They live in Portland where Megan is a lawyer and Graham owns a record store. They attend every Melissa Etheridge concert they can, and Graham’s record store always makes a killer float for the Pride parade.
Duke and Viola from She’s the Man
Duke and Viola broke up in college, but they still remain good friends and play club soccer together on the weekends. Long distance just didn’t work for them, but their friend group still remains intact. Olivia and Justin did stay together, though, and attend every single one of Duke and Viola’s games together. They still joke about what happened in high school, and Headmaster Gold sends them chain emails to this very day.
Sam and Austin from A Cinderella Story
Sam and Austin are still together and attend couple’s therapy to strengthen their relationship. Austin had to cut contact with his father after his father made some unsavory remarks on Twitter (I refuse to call it X), and Sam’s been supportive. Sam’s stepsisters are aspiring influencers, and Fiona is their manager. Sam got her PhD in Literature, and, thanks to her inheritance, she and Austin were able to set up a scholarship fund for kids in their area.
Corey and A.J. from Empire Records
A.J. supported Corey as she worked through a rehabilitation program, and she still attends meetings to this day. Corey and A.J. did eventually divorce, but they’re both excellent parents. Corey got remarried, but A.J. never did. Corey is a CMO at a very well-known company, while A.J. became a successful artist. Gina is the godmother to all of their children, and they still visit Joe and Lucas at Empire Records once a year.
