Jon Malcovich as Ferro
Michael:Timothy Omundson (Current Vintage) or Dylan Deal (SF Vintage)

I could handle Timothy, but I wasn't able to find anything on Dylan.
How about Anson Mount of Hell on Wheels for Michael?
How about Colm Meaney for Gregory Cristos?

Here you go. He played a villain (Prof Ivo) on the Arrow tv show. He worked well there as a psychotic yet still oddly sympathetic captor who was experimenting on people.

Too..Hard. Michael is a tight-rope walk in that he needs to be a guy that can smile with his eyes alone and exude happy contentment while holding a baby at a little league game, while still chill your blood with a hard look and soft-spoken word. Mount could do the Warrior of Heaven but not the gentle Daddy side of the character, even when he smiles it just doesnt look like it quite fits on his face.
I could see him as a decent Slate or Kincaid, though Jason Statham is my go-to. He'd also make a dynamite Morgan, if Clancy Brown ever starts aging.

I think he'd fit the tone of La Fortier more. He fits what we all suspect is under the surface of Cristos, but not the public persona. Cristos projects himself as more of the Gilderoy Lockhart of politicians (maybe a hair less stupid). I expect whomever plays Cristos to be a little on the younger side (relative to the SC) and to have a blindingly white fake smile.
Foxed:
Isn't Cristos Greek?
I figured that Thomas and Lara would look the same age, given that they're Wamps.
I said it earlier, but I still think Jaime Camil would be a great Esteban Batiste.

That was my point. Given that they're Vamps they technically look about the same age as Papa Wraith as well, but that would play extra weird on screen; it makes the familial relationships extra confusing, as compared to casting that offers more traditional visual clues. But then it might be a weird they like and decide to run with, and it would be an interesting way to make the Wampires extra-unsettling.
Rasins:
Okay, I might get shot for this, but ....
Kind of like in the Twilight movies? All of those vampires looked to be close in age. Even the "mom" and "dad".
