The Last Days of Disco - Cast of Characters

Cast of Characters

• Chloë Sevigny as Alice Kinnon: A quiet and passive but intelligent young woman working as a book editor in Manhattan. She and Charlotte, who attended a prestigious college together, work in the same office and are frequent companions.
• Kate Beckinsale as Charlotte Pingress: Alice's rather icy and conceited companion. She constantly offers "advice" to Alice and criticizes her lack of sociability. She is outgoing but controlling and dominating toward those around her.
• Chris Eigeman as Des McGrath: A worker at the disco Alice and Charlotte frequent. He provides comic relief in many sequences and provides much insight in conversations. He is intelligent but somewhat conniving, and has many hookups with Manhattan women, with a routine of pretending to come out as a homosexual when he has lost interest in them.
• Mackenzie Astin as Jimmy Steinway: A quirky friend of Des who works in advertising, which is constantly pointed out by Des. Jimmy has to sneak his way into the disco in costume because the house owner doesn't want "those kind of people" in the club. He dates Charlotte at one point in the film.
• Matt Keeslar as Josh Neff: A man who takes an interest in Alice. Upon his introduction to Alice at the disco, he is rudely interrupted by Charlotte, who pushes him away. Alice eventually begins a relationship with him, and comes to learn that he suffers from manic depressive disorder.
• Robert Sean Leonard as Tom Platt: A charming, wealthy environmental lawyer with whom Alice has a one-night stand. He gained interest in Alice after meeting her at the disco, but proved to not be relationship material. In her sexual encounter with him, Alice contracts both gonorrhea and herpes.
• Jennifer Beals as Nina Moritz: One of Des's female conquests, who falls for his "coming out" act and later discovers he was lying to rid himself of her.
• Matt Ross as Dan Powers: A Harvard graduate and co-worker of Alice and Charlotte. He often criticizes the two women, who refer to him as "Departmental Dan".
• Tara Subkoff as Holly: A quiet woman whose intelligence and relationship choices are questioned by Charlotte and Alice. She becomes their third roommate when they decide to move in together.
• Burr Steers as Van: A worker at the disco and sort of henchman of Berrie's.
• David Thornton as Berrie Rafferty: The owner of the popular Manhattan disco, and Des's boss.

• George Plimpton and Anthony Haden-Guest appear as Clubgoers.
