If i were Lee

I don't think some green screen work for some off-text scene for an adaptation of TH is something that would sound all that exciting.

his work as Saruman was excellent and integral to what made PJLOTR great. This might just seem tacked on.

His imdb entry is second to none. He seems to still be busy. If he has some ongoing project that are of interest to him closer to home, he should keep on keeping on with THOSE projects.

I'm sure Jackson and Deltoro are massive fans of Lee's work, but his experience with PJLOTR wasn't entirely positive (the editing and re-editing of his big scenes, omission of his big act 3 death scene, etc)

I don't think his participation is essential. I don't think they need to mimic Lee's Saruman and, as far as I'm concerned, they have lee way to reinvent/modify) the presentaion of the character (I feel the same about all characters including Gandalf and Gollum).

But if they want an interesting actor who can provide a physical match to a young Christopher Lee, as i've said before, i suggest this guy:
