School Of Rock cast then and now: Young stars of hit Jack Black movie all grown-up...
SCHOOL OF ROCK is now an unbelievable 14 years old - and its multi-talented young cast are all grown up.
School of Rock conquered the world in 2003
So what became of Jack Black’s classroom band over the years?
Very few of them have stayed in the public eye but its biggest child star was absolutely Miranda Cosgrove, who played Summer Hathaway, the class president and band manager.
Now 23, she’s an actress, singer and songwriter best known for the Nickelodeon sitcom iCarly as well as the Despicable Me movie and its sequel.
Joey Gaydos Jr, who played Zack Mooneyham, seems to have kept the musical habit alive into young adulthood, and similarly Brian Falduto (stylist Billy) seems to be continuing to act.

Whether or not he still uses the immortal line “You’re tacky and I hate you” in everyday life remains to be seen.
Kevin Clark (Freddy Jones) and Robert Tsai (Lawrence) seem to have ducked out of the public eye but were seen reuniting with Cosgrove three years ago in a cosy Instagram snap.
Similarly Maryam Hassan (Tomika) has become very hard to track down but performed at a reunion concert in 2013, whilst the likes of Rebecca Brown (Katie), Aleisha Allen (Alicia) and Caitlin Hale (Marta) can be found on Instagram.

Unveiled in October 2003, School of Rock generated a huge amount of success, including $131.3 million at the box office.
A sequel had been touted in 2008 but ultimately never came to fruition, however a hugely successful stage adaptation has now been launched by Andrew Lloyd Webber.
The hit is currently playing on the West End amid swathes of good reviews.
