Bobbi / Hunter… not the same height.

Post image

In this scene Bobbi says “too little too late” and Hunter replies “I'll remind you that we're basically the same height. I just don't wear bloody heels." I took a photo of the scene after they say this… she is clearly wearing flats and he is definitely shorter, so. (I always liked that line, do some reason this makes me laugh more now though, maybe because of Hunter personality, or just because the writers didn’t think about the statement, still seeing it after he said that made me laugh.)

And shorter actors tend to exaggerate their height a "little" and actress tend to down play it, lmao.

Yeah, Hollywood is very quick to cut an actress early if they don't meet very arbitrary guidelines for weight, height etc. Better to show up to the audition taller than they expected than to not get invited to audition at all.

I don’t really believe either of those. In the scenes with Hunter and Fitz together they are about the same height. Iain is a little under 5’8 according to IMDb, and Bobbi always looks like she towers over him.

Adrianne’s I think is accurate. Maybe rounded down. When she was in Supernatural she has several shots (without heels) where she’s standing directly next to Jared Padalecki, who’s solidly 6’4”, and looks 4 or so inches shorter.

Nick’s height, on the other hand…

Hadn’t thought of looking it up. I do like what someone said below, he is bending his knees and she isn’t.
