You are over 6'1 and you don't think you're "hugely tall?" The global average for men is around 5'7 and in countries where men average more like Sweden it's around 5'11. As for your idea about casting everyone 6" shorter than Cavill, films have been using height tricks to make actors appear...
On my dying day one thing I know I will be glad of is that I will never have to hear the word "immersion" again and listen to people talk about it like everybody understands what it means. Bl.eep
