The Cat in The Hat (film) - Cast

Cast

  • Mike Myers as the Cat in the Hat, a giant, anthropomorphic, wise-cracking cat. His hat has many magical abilities: a CD player, a voice-changer, an airbag, a periscope, a box of tennis balls, and even a box to put the crate into when it shrinks. He likes to balance things while he is on a ball. He often mistakes Conrad's name as Conrack, Condor, Convex, Klondike, Kojak, Concrete, Corn Dog and Cromwell.
  • Alec Baldwin as Lawrence "Larry" Quinn, the Waldens' pompous, lazy, unemployed next-door neighbor. He serves as the main antagonist of the film. He is allergic to cats, and is determined to both marry Joan for her wealth and send Conrad to military school to straighten up his behavior. Larry sending Conrad to military school was cancelled after Joan broke up with him.
  • Kelly Preston as Joan Walden, Conrad and Sally's mother, and real-estate agent
  • Dakota Fanning as Sarah "Sally" Walden, Joan's dull, well-behaved, and rule-obeying 8-year-old daughter.
  • Spencer Breslin as Conrad Walden, Joan's destructive and misbehaved 12-year-old son. As a running gag, the Cat constantly calls him names other than Conrad.
  • Amy Hill as Mrs. Kwan, an elderly woman hired to watch the kids, though she sleeps through her job. Her weight and sleep serves as a running gag.
  • Sean Hayes as Mr. Humberfloob, Joan's employer, and the voice of the Fish.
  • Danielle Chuchran and Taylor Rice as Thing One, and Brittany Oaks and Talia-Lynn Prairie as Thing Two; two gibbering creatures the Cat brings with him. Dan Castellaneta provided the voices for both Things.
  • Steven Anthony Lawrence as Dumb Schweitzer
  • Paris Hilton as a female club-goer
  • Bugsy as Nevins, the Waldens' pet dog. Frank Welker provided his voice.
  • Candace Dean Brown as a secretary who works for the Humberfloob Real Estate.
  • Daran Norris as the Announcer
  • Clint Howard as Kate the Caterer; makes brownies, cakes, and pies for parties, weddings, funerals, and graduations.
  • Paige Hurd as Denise
  • Stephen Hibbert as Jim McFinnigan. Touching Humberfloob's hand, Jim gave him a handshake which results in being fired.
  • Roger Morrisey as Mr. Vompatatat
  • Victor Brandt as the Narrator, who tells the story; he is revealed to be the Cat using a voice-changer at the end.

Famous quotes containing the word cast:

    By the time a person has achieved years adequate for choosing a direction, the die is cast and the moment has long since passed which determined the future.
    Zelda Fitzgerald (1900–1948)

    You have overcome yourself: but why do you show yourself to me only as the one overcome? I want to see the victor: cast roses into the abyss and say, “Here is my thanks to the monster, because it didn’t know how to swallow me!”
    Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

    There shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.
    Bible: New Testament Jesus, in Matthew, 8:12.
