She was leading the party but the story revolves around the Rand and his friends from Three Rivers. Her role is more the mentor than the protagonist. To change the focus of the story from them to her will completely change the tome of the story.
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*

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*
