So when they need to cast someone to play an elf queen...they cast a dwarf instead


most notably the Eighth Dwarf: Bitchy.

Why would I say this, you ask? Well, Galadriel was known for being a tall, statuesque elf Queen, which is normal for her species anyway. And yet they cast Morfydd Clark, who is 5'3" in real life, and looks tiny compared to many of the actors on set. Not a very good idea to cast a short little shit of an actress like that for a role that calls for a tall woman, now is it?

But then again, the casting choices they made for this entire shitshow is very questionable.

Sounds like Debicki would have fitted that role better.

Elizabeth Debicki

Still don't know who that is, sorry.

A 6'3" Australian actress.

Okay, so she fits the height requirements.
