How was Natalie Portman’s height increased?
When Taika Waititi was asked about the sudden increase in Natalie Portman’s height, he replied:
“We built a whole bunch of decking around the set. First, we would block out the scene — mark out where the actors have to go so the crew knows the whole layout — and once we did that we build an elevated platform that she would walk on. But we also had to leave the room so Chris and Tessa could walk around at a regular height. It was a weird maze. But it worked.”

Natalie Portman’s character development
For playing the role of Jane Foster, Natalie Portman had a skilled trainer who helped her tone her arms. She appeared to be as tall as Chris Hemsworth in the movie, and for that, there were some adjustments done.
As mentioned above, Taika Waititi reveals how her height was adjusted.
In the movie, Natalie Portman reprises her role as Thor’s ex Jane Foster. She has cancer, as written in the comics. She travels to New Asgard, after reading that Thor’s Hammer, Mjolnir, could possibly heal her cancer.
This leads her to possess the mighty hammer and leads her to have all the powers of the God of Thunder. This also somehow leads her to become taller.
The raised platform did the trick of making Jane Foster appear as tall as Thor, and they all go on putting a stop to Gorr.
Taika Waititi said,“We also had to leave the room so Chris and Tessa could walk around at regular height, It was a weird maze. But it worked.”
