Bonus Features: ‘She’s The Man’ makes Blu-ray debut for 15th anniversary

There’s nothing quite like the brilliant work of William Shakespeare. From the star-crossed lovers of “Romeo and Juliet” to the theatrics of high school soccer, the Bard simply has a way with words.

Obviously, the latter puts a bit of a spin on Shakespeare’s true work, but to loyal fans of “She’s The Man,” it’s just as good as anything the legendary poet produced, and now it’s finally coming home on Blu-ray just in time for its 15th anniversary.

The “Twelfth Night” remix stars Amanda Bynes as Viola, a high school soccer player secretly filling in for her brother at an elite prep school, but things get tricky when she – posing as a man – begins to fall for her roommate and teammate Duke Orsino (Channing Tatum). In true 2006 fashion, hi-jinks ensue as Viola tries to juggle her disguise and follow her heart at the same time, all while trying to earn a scholarship to play for the University of North Carolina Tar Heels.

If that isn’t enough teenage girl drama for you, then don’t worry. “She’s The Man” arrives on the same day as Paramount’s “Girls Rule 3-Movie Blu-ray Collection,” featuring “She’s The Man,” “Mean Girls” and “Clueless.”

Even if you just opt for “She’s The Man,” you’re still getting way more than just the film, because it comes loaded with bonus features. Let’s take a look:
