Why didn’t Nick Castle play the flashback scene?

[Rickster58]

might wanna calm down there, i think audiences would be able to tell hes gotten shorter and stockier, especially audiences like us, besides Airon did a great job

I dont think any of it would have been noticed if the mask looked like it did in H1. Shorter? No problem. Just use shorter actors
In that particular scene. Movie magic

It seems a little unnecessary to have shorter actors just to have castle look like he’s still 5’11, and like I said he’s not the same build as he used to be so it made sense to have Airon as the shape for the flashback scenes

He has the same build. He just put on weight. Under the “padding” is the same 78 body. If Castle really wanted to have played the shape he could have lost the extra weight. Seems like he just never really was serious about it
