@Html.DropDownListFor(model => model.role, new SelectList((IEnumerable)ViewData["Roles"], "role1", "role1"), new { htmlAttributes = new { @class = "form-control" } })

//DropDownListFor: modelItem, selectList, optionLabel, htmlAttributes
//EditorFor: modelItem, additionalViewData

If you "right click" the code and peek definition (in Visual Studio) you'll see the definitions. So if you use this, it should work:

@Html.DropDownListFor(model => model.role, new SelectList((IEnumerable)ViewData["Roles"], "role1", "role1"), null, new { @class = "form-control" })
