Lawrence Makoare, a native New Zealander:



Played the Uruk-Hai Commander in the Fellowship movie, and then played the Witch King of Angmar as well as the Orc General Gothmog in The Return of the King.

And Sir Ian Mckellen, "Gandalf the Grey/White", is openly gay. I'd say they represented a fair amount of diversity. And for those who don't know much about him, John Rhys-Davies (played dwarf Gimli) has some very outspoken and strong held Christian beliefs.
