Someone who would look the part, at least 15 years ago, was Cathy DeBuono, who played M'Pella in DS9. But that role had few lines so I couldn't say whether she could play the role.

And I've seen Famke Janssen mentioned, that might not be too bad either.

Don't know if she is too old, but I remember her work in ALIAS and she could morph into looking like anyone. She is thin, athletic and the planes of her face are sharp enough.
Don't know her age. Jennifer Garner as Honor.

Jennifer AFFLEK just turned 40 and has 3 kids

but it's a young 40

but most importantly she's probably beyond their budget

This has become my headcanon Honor now :D
So, who would make good Hamish? Or the Dastardly duo? Or Scotty & Chief?
I nominate Hugh Laurie for Mac

This has probably been mentioned before but I am a big fan of Tia Carrere for Honnor. She has an asiatic heritage, fairly tall, and she can act.
