Let's see... round 3
Harry Dresden- Nathan Fillion
Ebenezar McCoy-Billy Connolly
The Merlin-Christopher Lee
Listens to Wind-Wes Studi-Last of the Mohican’s showed his skill plus I just want to see him do the Shag/LTW duel
Martha Liberty-Marianne Jean-Baptiste-She plays no-nonsense well from Without a trace.
The Gatekeeper-Ghassan Massoud-He did well in Kingdom of Heaven
Captain Luccio-Judi Dench
Corpsetaker/Captain Luccio 2.0-Summer Glau-Is there something that said that she was Italian?  I just know she could handle the oddity of Corpsetaker and still be combat impressive as Luccio 2.0
Warden Morgan-Liam Neeson- after Kingdom of Heaven, Taken, and Batman Begins I think he could handle Morgan
Warden Ramirez-Oscar Jaenada maybe… he’s in the movie The Losers
Susan Rodriguez-Salma Hayek
Karrin Murphy-Kathryn Morris-She looks to be rather petite in Cold Case and she can play the cop well, Pretty enough to be dismissed though
Thomas Raith-Stuart Townsend-already has experience playing the pretty vamp
Lara Raith-Catherine Zeta-Jones
John Marcone-Gary Oldman-supposed to come across as a football coach not mr sinister.
Valkyrie Gard-Ali Larter
Cujo Hendricks-Stellan Skarsgård- after seeing him in King Arthur I think he may do… although otherwise I can’t think of any other red haired guys that could pull it off… Unless maybe just look for someone from the NFL with red hair built like a Sherman tank… It’s not like Cujo has many lines… just has to be able to growl.
Michael Carpenter-Russel Crowe- can handle the action, has the build, and can handle the family aspect
Charity Carpenter-Rebecca Romijn
Molly Carpenter-Laura Vandervoort- she has shown some action ability on Smallville
Bob-Hugh Laurie- just thought of this one…since people want British (he is) and he has the snark and dirty mind of Bob down on House.
Mac-Adam Baldwin- I just can’t think of anyone else who can put as much into as few syllables as he can.
Sanya-Michael Clarke Duncan- the only guy big and strong enough that I could believe the backboard scene with
Shiro-Ken Watanabe- I might say the quiet samurai from the Last Samurai but without having heard him speak don’t know.  But Ken can handle the swordplay.
Mab-Tilda Swinton (maybe a little Typecasting) or possibly
Maeve-Christina Ricci- someone else suggested her but I can see it.
Kincaid-Daniel Craig- can handle the scary action dude.
Ivy-Elle Fanning-Dakota’s little sister could get tips from sis on being the uber creepy little girl
Lea-Amanda Righetti- attractive redhead
Elaine Mallory-Keira Knightly…hmm?
Donner Vadderung-Was thinking maybe Ray Stevenson
Butters-David Krumholtz- not very tall- can play the geeky, quirky genius, Jew as evidenced by Numb3rs.
Forthill-Gerald McRaney

Hmm...
Harry Dresden: Nathan Filion-Serenity and Castle show the the underdog and the snark.
Bob-Michael Caine-Dark Knight show the humor.
Thomas 2nd pick: Stuart Townsend already has played the pretty vamp
John Marcone:Gary Oldman -Remember Marcone is described as coming across as a football coach  Not so much sinister
Michael Carpenter:Russel Crowe -he has the build, has the action chops and as far as family acting see Cinderella Man
Shiro-Ken Watanabe- I would say the old Samurai in the Last Samurai but I have never heard him speak...Ken however has some acting chops and can handle the swordplay
Sanya-Must be Michael Clarke Duncan- The description of him with his shirt of in Small Favor and the whole intimidation thing recently He is a very big VERY STRONG MAN

Gary Oldman could play all of the white male non white court roles by himself...The man is a supremely versatile actor.
He's been a russian, a police leutenant, a sci-fi villian with a western accent, a sci-fi educated villian, a dwarf, Beethoven, and it took me quite a while to recognize him in each role. 
As for the white court males-Johnny Depp... more clean cut than in Pirates...more Finding Neverland with a more modern hairstyle and mode of dress.
