I do! I can see Winona Ryder in either of these roles, excepting Sessily and the Flower of Cath. For some reason I deem Ms. Ryder especially suitable for the roles of Zap 210 and Alusz Iphigenia Eperje-Tokay.

But we will still be lopsided, even if we come up with scores of female thespians. Who should portray Vance's illustrious crooks?

Agreed, in the Demon Princes book you see precious little of these title characters, but maybe an adaption would change that. Kevin Spacey might make a good Hekkus or Treesong. Kenneth McMillan, who was the Baron in "Dune," could play Larque.
