Tami Seven:
How's this. LeVar Burton as Henry Rawlins?

While I like the idea of finding LeVar Burton work, Rawlins doesn't really fit.
In PG, Rawlins is described as a large man. In SmF, he's described as blocky, comfortably overweight, and as soft as a Brinks truck.
???
LeVar Burton is 5'7" and has a pretty soft voice. I think he'd be more suited to Stallings.
Idris Elba is closer to how I picture Rawlins. At 6'3, he's got the size and muscle, but not the paunch.

I think he'd make a better Sanya, IMO. We know he's good with accents from The Wire.

I usually think of Sanya as being around Harry's age. At least in appearance, not counting the years he was a coin-bearer.
If I were casting younger, I'd say Sinqua Walls. He's got the lean look of youth that might work for Sanya.
If I were going for an older Sanya, I'd say Chiwetel Ejiofor. He's got the physique, and martial arts training.
