Do you remember the Hobbits from Lord of the Rings? Were you under the impression the actors playing them were all under 5 feet tall?
Rosamund Pike is playing Moiraine.

Moiraine isn't actually "middle aged" though. She is all of 40-ish out of a 700-ish lifespan.

700-ish is without the binder effects of the oath rod.

The binders cause them to gray and die prematurely. They don’t actually make them AGE any faster.

Is her height a particularly important trait? *NM*

Only if it signifies that the show will be cast with no consideration for descriptions. *NM*

So you were furious when Hugh Jackman was cast as Wolverine?

I just realized Rosamund Pike was the female lead in Reacher with Tom Cruise. How funny. *NM*

I may be wrong, but I recall her physical height being referred to constantly in the books.

But her thoughts are never vocalized on New Spring...

Height's relative, and can be manipulated on screen, if needed...

I find it ineteresting that they are calling her role the lead role

Remove the PoV structure of the books, and she is the lead in Eye of the World. *NM*
