The Tallest Actors In Hollywood
In the movie Forgetting Sarah Marshall, Jason Segel’s co-stars, Kristen Bell (5 feet 1) and Mila Kunis (5 feet 4) made him look super-tall in comparison! The actor and writer also starred on the hit sitcom How I Met Your Mother.
Chevy Chase’s career as an actor and comedian has spanned over four decades, all the way from when he was a cast member on Saturday Night Live in the 1970s to his role on the 2009 TV show Community.
Although he is very tall, John Lithgow wasn’t afraid to tackle the role of Winston Churchill in Netflix’s The Crown. This despite the fact that in real life Churchill was only 5 feet 6 inches tall. Lithgow also worked on TV shows like 3rd Rock From The Sun and as a villain on Dexter.
In his song “83”, musician John Mayer refers to himself as “6 feet small”, but in actuality, the singer is far from small in reality!
In response to reports that he was as tall as 6 feet 8 inches, talk show host and comedian Conan O’Brien clarified his height by joking, “I’m not radioactive. I’m not growing out of control. I’m 6 feet 4.”
Lethal Weapon star Danny Glover is either 6 feet 3 inches or 6 feet 4 inches. Even the actor himself isn’t sure! He referred to himself as both of those heights in an interview. Either way, he’s certainly very tall.
Not only is Ansel Elgort taller than his Fault In Our Stars and Divergent onscreen co-star Shailene Woodley, but the young actor stands a full head above his real-life girlfriend as well. Elgort is dating ballerina Violetta Komyshan (the two were reportedly high school sweethearts).
Best known for starring on Law & Order: Criminal Intent, actor Vincent D’Onofrio played Detective Robert Goren for a decade, and he recently acted opposite fellow tall actors Chris Pratt and Denzel Washington in the 2016 remake of Magnificent Seven. Fans of Netflix’s Daredevil also know the hulking actor as Wilson Fisk.
Chris Hemsworth — Height: 6 feet 3 inches
Action star Chris Hemsworth is so tall that he’s admitted to lying about his height to make himself shorter. However, that all changed when he auditioned for Thor. He told W Magazine, “I remembered reading the breakdown for Thor and it said, ‘Must be over 6 feet 3 inches and 200 pounds,’ and so on. I thought, ‘Oh cool. This is the one thing that sort of fits me.'”
