I agree with Morai, just have Wormtongue kill him the same as in ROTK - just have him do it early. My suggestion would be that Saruman's demise could take place after Wormtongue throws the Palantir out at Gandalf. Saruman would get very upset, he and Wormtongue would quarrel, and Wormtongue could grab a knife or something similarly nasty and kill Saruman, partly for getting angry and partly out of his own anger at having picked the losing side.
