Del Toro 'takes leave' of Hobbit. Hobbit filming to begin in July. Published 1 June Published 18 March Towering over even Gandalf, Saruman made even the greatest of warriors involved with destroying the ring seem diminutive. Lee's height, as well as his stentorian voice, also served to make him a very memorable character. In Middle-earth, elves are known for being tall, graceful, and fair.
Therefore, it made sense to cast a tall and lithe actor like Hugo Weaving to embody these qualities as the Lord of Rivendell.
Elves are frequently the tallest characters on-screen, even among the most physically imposing from the race of Men. It was Elrond's height that added to the drama of his solemn conversations with Gandalf and Aragorn , and to the comicality involved with his chastising of several hobbits who happened to crash the secret council meeting.
As a powerful metamorph, Sauron didn't often take physical form , but when he did it was of a tall menacing Warlord of Darkness. Walking into battle, he parted oceans of soldiers with his huge strides and his mighty mace. At 6 ft and 1 inch tall, Sala Baker had enough height to make Sauron actually seem like a threat, especially with all of his armor on.
In Tolkien's novels, that version of Sauron was not described in great detail, which is odd given how much description he devoted to other characters. In the films, having Sauron appear as a hulking warrior gave him menace — unlike a giant lidless eye. Celeborn didn't have many lines of dialogue in The Fellowship of the Ring, but he made an impression thanks to his willowy frame and serene composure. At 6 ft 1 inch tall, Martin Csokas captured the serenity of the Lord of Lorien, who has seen much come to pass in Middle-earth over the centuries he's safeguarded his domain.
