- Amanda Bynes as Daphne Reynolds. Amanda Bynes had her breakout film performance in What a Girl Wants as Daphne Reynolds, who jumps on a flight to London to find her long-lost father, Lord Henry Dashwood.
- Colin Firth as Henry Dashwood. Colin Firth stepped into the dad role for What a Girl Wants as the high-profile Lord Henry Dashwood, who worries about his political career when he discovers his less-than-debutante-ready daughter.
- Kelly Preston as Libby Reynolds. Daphne’s hippy mother is brought to life by Kelly Preston, who previously acted in Twins and Jerry Maguire. She was born in Oahu — making her television debut in an episode of Hawaii Five-O — and then left the island for Hollywood, studying theater and drama at USC and UCLA.
- Eileen Atkins as Jocelyn Dashwood. Eileen Atkins has a knack for portraying the British upper-class, and is in fact a dame herself. In What a Girl Wants, she played Jocelyn Dashwood, the mother of Colin Firth’s character who urges him to get to know his daughter.
An American girl, Daphne, heads to Europe in search of the father she's never met. But instead of finding a British version of her bohemian mother, she learns the love of her mom's life is an uptight politician. The only problem now is that her long-lost dad is engaged to a fiercely territorial social climber with a daughter who makes Daphne's life miserable.
