Kimberly Williams as Virginia Lewis - Virginia is a pretty twenty-one year old woman who lives on the edge of Central Park with her father. Virginia is very cynical and tired, and while she claims that she doesn't care about her mother or dating, it is obvious that she feels very lonely. She later reveals that she blames herself for her mother's leaving them. While at first she cares only about returning to her own world, Virginia eventually commits to saving Wendell and his kingdom. Melissa Perenson said that "Virginia must learn how to face the pain caused when her mother abandoned her." According to Ron Wertheimer, Virginia is a plucky waitress on her way to self-confidence.
