| Actor | Character | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Ivana Baquero | Ofelia / Princess Moanna | Protagonist* Del Toro says he was "scared shitless" in casting the right actress for the lead role, and that finding the 10-year-old Spanish actress was purely accidental. (The film was shot from June to October 2005, when she was 11). "The character I wrote was initially younger, about 8 or 9, and Ivana came in and she was a little older than the character, with this curly hair which I never imagined the girl having. But I loved her first reading, my wife was crying and the camera woman was crying after her reading and I knew hands down Ivana was the best actress that had shown up, yet I knew that I needed to change the screenplay to accommodate her age." Baquero says that del Toro sent her lots of comics and fairy tales to help her "get more into the atmosphere of Ofelia and more into what she felt". She says she thought the film was "marvelous", and that "at the same time it can bring you pain, and sadness, and scariness, and happiness". |
| Doug Jones | Faun / Pale Man | A strange, magical creature who guides Ofelia to the fantasy world. A grotesque monster with an appetite for children and no eyes.* Jones had worked with del Toro before on Mimic and Hellboy, and says the director sent him an email saying, "You must be in this film. No one else can play this part but you". Jones read an English translation of the script and was enthusiastic but then found out the film was in Spanish, which he did not speak. Jones says he was "terrified" and del Toro suggested learning the script phonetically, or dubbing his lines with a voice-over actor, but Jones rejected both ideas preferring to learn the words himself. He said, "I really, really buckled down and committed myself to learning that word for word and I got the pronunciation semi-right before I even went in", using the five hours a day he spent getting the costume and make-up on to practice the words. Del Toro decided afterwards that he still preferred to dub Jones with the voice of "an authoritative theatre actor", but Jones's efforts remained valuable because the voice actor was able to easily match his delivery with Jones's mouth movements. |
| Sergi López i Ayats | Captain Vidal | The primary antagonist of the film; Ofelia's stepfather and the Falange officer.* Del Toro met with López in Barcelona, a year and a half before filming began, to ask him to play Vidal. In Spain, López was considered a melodramatic or comedic actor, and the producers told Del Toro "You should be very careful because you don't know about these things because you're Mexican, but this guy is not going to be able to deliver the performance"; del Toro replied "Well, it's not that I don't know, it's that I don't care". Of his character, López said: "he is the most evil character I've ever played in my career. It is impossible to improve upon it; the character is so solid and so well written. Vidal is deranged, a psychopath who is impossible to defend. Even though his father's personality marked his existence — and is certainly one of the reasons for his mental disorder — that cannot be an excuse. It would seem to be very cynical to use that to justify or explain his cruel and cowardly acts. I think it is great that the film does not consider any justification of fascism." |
| Maribel Verdú | Mercedes | Vidal's housekeeper* Del Toro selected her to play the compassionate revolutionary because he "saw a sadness in her ... he thought would be perfect for the part". |
| Ariadna Gil | Carmen/Queen of the Underworld | Ofelia's mother and Vidal's wife |
| Alex Angulo | Doctor Ferreiro | Doctor in the service of Vidal who is also an anti-francoist and aids the rebels. He is shot by Vidal after being informed of his actions with the rebels. |
| Roger Casamajor | Pedro | Mercedes' brother, who is one of the rebels and kills Vidal. |
| Manolo Solo | Garcés | One of Vidal's lieutenants |
| César Vea | Serrano | One of Vidal's lieutenants |
| Federico Luppi | King of the Underworld/Ofelia's father | Ofelia's Father |
| Pablo Adán | Narrator / Faun (voice) |
