Here is my list of cast of characters if the series of animated movies would be made based on Redwall book series. The list of noteworthy actors are the ones whose voice talents bring their characters to life and I believe they are potential life-givers to Redwall's creatures.
Feel free to suggest! (Forgive me for some inaccuracy, confusion and error in the list, this is the best I can muse.)
The arrangement of this list is the series' chronological order, which will be updated from time to time (as of this writing, the current book I am reading is The Bellmaker). For considering reasons I leave some of them blank for you to decide and suggest.

Billy Boyd
Dominic Monaghan
Orlando Bloom
Lee Pace
David Ogden Stiers
Frank Oz
Tom Kane
Benedict Cumberbatch (a role would be some fearful vermin)
Any of the actors of the Dwarfs from The Hobbit movie trilogy: Richard Armitage, Graham McTavish, Ken Stott, Aidan Turner, Dean O'Gorman, Mark Hadlow, Jed Brophy, Adam Brown, John Callen, Peter Hambleton, William Kircher, James Nesbitt, Stephen Hunter (any of them could be Log-a-Logs, moles or badger warriors/lords)

Imelda Staunton

Christopher Plummer
Lea Salonga (singing voice of any maidbeast)
Evanna Lynch
Matthew Lewis
Robbie Coltrane
Rowan Atkinson (for more comedic effect)
Liam Neeson as Martin the warrior
That's hilarious. ;D
This is AWESOME! Personally I think Liam Neeson would be better to voice Luke but that's my opinion.
Oh yes. Liam Neeson as Martin The Warrior. After I read that I just sat and thought about Aslan. :P ;D
It appears you've given me a list of British actors, or at the very least actors who can do good British accents, so thanks for that. You left off some notable people though:
Sir Ian McKellan
David Tennant
Michael Fassbender
James McAvoy
Peter Capaldi
Christopher Eccleston
Etc. Etc.
Personally I want Liam Neeson to play an Irish character, because Irish characters are the best. (As well as all the officially Irish characters, I headcanon all otters as Irish too). He'd be a good fit for Warthorn actually.
And Sir Christopher Lee died last year.
ELIJAH WOOD AS DANDIN OHMYGOODNESS YES. YES A THOUSAND TIMES. THANK YOU FOR THAT. ;D
Now, if only you could fit Christopher Walken in as some kind of villain and Sean Bean as somebody who dies, this would be perfect. :P
I have two for Sable Quean.
I think it would be perfect for Zwilt the Shade to be played by Benedict Cumberbatch, and the Sable Quean to be played by Angelina Jolie.
Oohh. Benedict Cumberbatch would be a good choice.
I'm afraid I don't know most of these people...
Jeremy Irons would not be suited for Badrang, in my opinion. I would much prefer if he did Martin or Verdauga. (He would be perfect for Verdauga)
EDIT: Rowan Atkinson would be good for a hare!
Oh, and I think Vincent Price'd make a better Cluny than Gabool.
Yes! Ben Barnes would make a for a great Saxtus
I love that John Cleese shows up so many times, haha. He's definitely perfect for a hare. But I don't see Alan Tudyk on your list! For shame. He's fantastic, live or animated.
Idris Elba needs a part. I don't even know which, he just needs one.
Perhaps Razzid Wearat from the Rogue Crew.
^^That guy, I do know. And yes, he needs a part. I think he would be great for Badrang...
