How about Tim Curry as Gollum.  Now he can do slimy to the hilt.
or Martin Short?
Tom Bombadil?- the actor who plays Friar Tuck in Costner's
Robin Hood.  Boromir?-the actor who played Little John in Costner's
Robin Hood.  Anybody but Costner.
For Saruman-Patrick Mcgoohan.
Sophie Marceau -Arwen the Elf-princess
Catherine Deneuve for Galadrial, an older beauty.
Elrond? Possibly David Bowie- he is older now.
Anthony Hopkins in any role???
