She’s the Man is a 2006 American romantic comedy teen sports film directed by Andy Fickman and starring Amanda Bynes, Channing Tatum, Laura Ramsey, Vinnie Jones, and David Cross. Loosely inspired by William Shakespeare's play Twelfth Night, the film follows teenager Viola Hastings, who disguises herself as her twin brother to attend his new boarding school, Illyria Prep, and join the boys' soccer team.

She's the Man emerged as a moderate commercial success, grossing $57.2 million worldwide against a production budget of $20–25 million. While critical response was mixed, Bynes's performance received widespread praise, and the film has since developed a cult following.
