Cast
- Frankie Muniz as Jason Shepherd, a pathological liar. A running gag during the film is Wolf thinking Jason is younger than 14. Jason is smart when it comes to getting vengeance as he knows how to disable a car and is good with technology.
- Paul Giamatti as Marty Wolf, an arrogant Hollywood producer. Like Jason, Wolf is a compulsive liar, although he does not care how his lying affects others, and is a jerk to everyone he considers beneath him. Wolf has a stuffed monkey named Mr. Funnybones, to whom he talks to fairly often.
- Amanda Bynes as Kaylee, Jason's best friend. Kaylee is a sucker for adventure, and has very convincing acting skills.

Famous quotes containing the word cast:
“Has he all that the world loves and admires and covets?—he must cast behind him their admiration, and afflict them by faithfulness to his truth, and become a byword and a hissing.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“Nothing is so foolish, they say, as for a man to stand for office and woo the crowd to win its vote, buy its support with presents, court the applause of all those fools and feel self-satisfied when they cry their approval, and then in his hour of triumph to be carried round like an effigy for the public to stare at, and end up cast in bronze to stand in the market place.”
—Desiderius Erasmus (c. 1466–1536)
“All deep, earnest thinking is but the intrepid effort of the soul to keep the open independence of her sea; while the wildest winds of heaven and earth conspire to cast her on the treacherous, slavish shore.”
—Herman Melville (1819–1891)
