Michelle Dockery:

I think she's gorgeous, graceful, and could ideally work really well as an elf. But how about casting her as Morwen? Morwen is the most beautiful woman of her kind, tall and slender, and a bit...aloof. I think Dockery would fit this description wonderfully and I'd actually love to see her in this role. I first saw her in Hogfather but I'm more familiar with her now as Mary Crawley from Downton Abbey (pictured right), where her character more closely resembles that proud, slightly cool disposition of Morwen's, however not without moments of compassion and vulnerability.

I remember her from The Hollow Crown: Henry IV Part 1. She plays Hotspur’s wife.

Mitchell's character of Monroe from Grimm is a personal favorite of mine. He's like Lupin from Harry Potter, but funnier.

More for a motion capture role. Maybe an Orc or a Balrog?

Has had several roles, including Sid on Hill Street Blues; the one I know him from is the complicated and tormented Londo Mollari on Babylon 5. He was one of the most amazingly actors on that show, surpassed only by 2-3 who sadly passed away. He can change his accent and voice pitch, and convincingly portray a wide range of emotions and moods, as well as effectively showing character change and growth over time. He can make you love and hate his character at the same time. At 69 he's probably too old to portray an Elf, but I'm sure he would make a wonderful Dwarf or Man, if we can find a role that would make good use of his skill.

I have a concept for him as Gorgol, the Orc Captain and henchman of Sauron who leads the massacre of Barahir’s band and claims Barahir’s ring. Beren would kill him in a one-on-one fight while attacking their camp and retakes the ring.

Edit: Added new youtube video in place of deleted one; the scene is hard to find in the right key.

Physically, I can imagine him as a member of the House of Beor. Don’t know how skilled he is with weapons, but he’s pretty good in hand-to-hand.

As Haleth. The Hosts have expressed interest in casting Maisie Williams at some point in the project and frankly this is one of the roles that she might be good at. I tried to cast her as Shelob, without success.

During this year's casting session, Trish and Corey mentioned that they thought some of the actresses nominated were more human than elf. In particular, they suggested that Krystin Ritter and Felicia Day would be good human characters. Though they also mentioned that they could see Felicia Day as a hobbit.
