I think that Bean was deffinitly best suited for Boromir (he's a great actor, but I can't really see him as Aragorn). You could make an argument that he had to play the most complex character in FotR. He had to display a much wider range of emotions than anyone else, & walk a fine line between proud & compassionate. Plus the 'evil fit' thing is far harder to pull off than one might think.
