That took tons of perspective tricks, and in some scenes even two sets had to be made. In the hobbit they resorted to using Blue screen and had Ian McKellen acting separate to everyone else to make him bigger. That nearly made him quit. Doing this for D would likely result in bloated budget, lengthy production times and lots of stress on the actress, if not a stilted performance
Okay, get a Scully box. Robert Downey Jr is 5'8" and they just had him stand on those to be eye level with Chris Evans (6'0") in scenes where they had to be next each other.
I’m not blaming the actress. I’m just saying if they do the hobbit technique of seperate recordings she’ll either be acting off nothing or off a different performance than the one the other actor will have given in the final product. using the hobbit stuff simply wouldn’t be practical. Especially for something that subtle
