It doesn't necessarily need to be miscast, it can just be very random. You can even use people who are already in the movie, just don't give them the role they already had.

Robin Hood-Burl Ives
Little John-John Houseman
Friar Tuck-Steve Allen
Maid Marian-Olivia de Havilland
Lady Kluck-Eartha Kitt
Prince John-Pete Seeger
King Richard-Sidney Poitier
Sir Hiss-Edward G. Robinson
Sheriff of Nottingham-Charlie Chaplin
Alan-a-Dale-Burgess Meredith
Trigger-Jack Gilford
Nutsy-Vincent Price

Johnny Carson 1925-2005. We will never forget you.

It just bothered me that a few of the actors were Americans.

Yeah, precisely.

Why weren't all the actors American?!?

I won't miscast it. Instead I will state the voices I think would fit if they remade or re-dubbed this great movie nowadays:

Max Irons voice Robin Hood
Bill Bailey voice Little John
Tony Robinson voice Friar Tuck
Jorgie Porter voice Maid Marian
Ashley Jensen voice Lady Kluck
Benedict Cumberbatch voice Prince John
Hugh Bonneville voice King Richard
Nancy Cartwright voice Sir Hiss
Ricky Gervais voice Sheriff of Nottingham
Peter Gabriel voice Alan-a-Dale
Anthony McPartlin voice Trigger
Declan Donnelly voice Nutsy

Kid on bike "Where you going?"
Charlie Bright "Somewhere".
