Yeah, at this point, we've already cast Maeglin's parents. So, child of Mark Strong and Charlotte Riley, if I recall correctly.
Maeglin won't get any good fight scenes, though. Bor, or his sons, on the other hand...they'll play an important role in the Nirnaeth.
I know we have had an Asian actor nominated for an elf in the past. Perhaps Ecthelion? Someone who wasn't directly related to our main characters. I agree with you that he has an 'ageless elf' thing going on. (Seriously, try to guess his age from the photo....) We still have Gil-galad left to cast, though he has to be a son of Orodreth.

I would have cast him as an Elf... this opportunity now is over.
