- Vince Vaughn - Peter. Vince Vaughn may have already been well-known for "Swingers," "The Lost World: Jurassic Park," and "Psycho" when he starred in "DodgeBall," but the film seems to have marked the beginning of a new phase in Vaughn's career: that of big budget, big screen comedies.
- Ben Stiller - White. Ben Stiller has had a varied career as an actor, writer, and director, and it seems like it was really launched in 2004, the year "DodgeBall" was released.
- Christine Taylor - Kate. Christine Taylor was already known for being a (movie) Brady when she signed on to "DodgeBall," and she had a lot of other memorable roles before the film as well, including parts in "The Wedding Singer," "Zoolander," and "The Craft."
- Rip Torn - Patches O'Houlihan. Rip Torn had a not so great fate as the Average Joe's team mentor Patches O'Houlihan in "DodgeBall," a role that came far into an already successful career.
When megalomaniacal White Goodman, the owner of a trendy, high-end fitness center, makes a move to take over the struggling local gym run by happy-go-lucky Pete La Fleur, there's only one way for La Fleur to fight back: dodgeball. Aided by a dodgeball guru and Goodman's attorney, La Fleur and his rag-tag team of underdogs launch a knock-down, drag-out battle in which the winner takes all.
