On Aug. 2, 2013, The Spectacular Now premiered in theaters. If you were an indie kid in the early 2010s, this film was everything. Based on Tim Tharp's book of the same name, it starred Shailene Woodley and Miles Teller as teenagers experiencing an unexpected romance. Plus, the movie was written by the same guys who wrote 500 Days of Summer: Michael H. Weber and Scott Neustadter.

Looking back on the film 10 years later, the movie is a standout in that very Tumblr-esque era of teen films. (Think Perks of Being a Wallflower, The Fault in Our Stars, and Me and Earl and the Dying Girl.) It was just the fifth film to be released by A24 and featured a stellar supporting cast of whom many are now household names. (Seriously, anyone else forget Kaitlyn Dever was in this movie?!)

So, in honor of the film's 10-year anniversary, here is what the cast looked like then vs. now. Oh, and what all they've been up to since.
