There's been a lot of talk about Hugh Laurie without anyone nominating him for the part. Perhaps not a bad choice at all, he's got the posh accent down and can surely sound sneering and menacing too.

And how about John Malkovich? Wouldn't it be a hoot if he Frenched him up too, like in Johnny English? Seems fitting too, given JRRTs legendary Frenchyfobia. But seriously, Malkovich might do a good Smaug methinks...
