He looks 5'11.5 flat with Rob because his back seems slightly bowed, but with better posture he will look a 6'0 guy I think.

I can see 8cm difference here, take -1cm because of his footwear and it's 7cm difference. 5'11" flat guy.

The top of his head is the top of his head, Rob! No matter how long is his head...
In the most recent picture, he looks 5'11.5 WITH hair and shoe advantage!

Editor Rob to be fair Andrea, you wouldn't entirely rule out a chance of him falling to 181cm, but I'm just not so sure he is that low.

Considering the haí¯r And that Malcolm had less haí¯r/footwear 5 ft 11-11,25 might be closer hé should look 6 ft because of the 0,3in extra shoe , rob hé should have looked 5 ft 11,75-6ft not looking at shoes

I know what its like having no sleep and suddenly feeling shorter during the day. I'm not sure if that's exactly the case here because Rob is normally already at his low when he has a photo taken. Cumberbatch could really just be 5'11". Not a legit 6 footer like many people believe, even though a lanky framed 5'11" is an easy in todays world.

I'm quite certain he's 6ft, this appears to be a true least a 4 inch height difference, and if he's 5'11.5, he's closer to 6ft anyway, so he can round up. He looked very tall in The Doctor Strange trailer.

@Editor Rob: Yeah, but shouldn't the footwear advantage make up for some of that though? I think he does look a little over 5'11 mostly so it's not a big deal, I just find it strange that he looks just barely 5'11 with you even with a footwear advantage.

Editor Rob yeah you could make a strong 5ft 11 argument, but as I said the first time I met him, looking at him with the photographer I think he certainly wasn't shorter and could have edged him a little, but had a bit more footwear, hence 5ft 11.5.
BT said on 18/Oct/16
@Editor Rob: I trust your judgement, you've met plenty of 5'11 and 5'11.5 guys, but don't you think you're being just a wee bit generous here? You seem to stand with a similar posture, he has a little more footwear and he still only looks 5'11, logically that would imply he measures a little under 5'11. What's your thinking behind the "phantom" half inch?

Editor Rob phantom half inches can easily get added or taken away.
I would say I think cumberbatch is over 5ft 11 but under 6ft, so 181 or 182 could be argued for him.
Could have been I wasn't quite at my low, he had a bad night and was at low already...

I was thinking that this picture maybe fluke, that Benedikt is not as short as he appears with Rob up there but comparing him to Andrew Scott; who Rob has been pictured with and who Rob is taller than, Benedikt comes off even worse than he does with Rob.
I would be confident in saying Benedikt looks like in the lower end of the 5'10-range at his lowest and around 5'11-5'11.25 at his tallest. He is basically around 5'10.75, which is kind of surprising for me.

Looked possibly around 2-3 Inches shorter than Tennis Star Andy Murray the other day backstage after he Andy won Wimbledon, pretty hard to peg Murray down clearly as his posture is a bit iffy etc He is listed officially as 6'3 he is on record as saying he is 6'3 in shoes and he is down on here as 6'2 I think he is a solid 6'2 guy in general

Judging solely by the eye level comparison with Rob he looks a bit under 1,82. But he also has a rather large forehead so maybe that could push him in the weak 6' range. His posture is not that great either. The listing seems fair in my opinion.

Using the height chart and taking away footwear advantage would put Benedikt at ~5'10.3 at his lowest but he is probably a bit over 5'11 at his tallest thus an average of between 5'10.75-5'11 would be fair.

Johno said on 1/May/16
The above snapshot on the right is a fair comparison and you can see him going sub-5'11 easily.
His eyeline is around 5'6 and i can't see much of a tilt because Rob and him are not that far apart in height thus their eyelines should not vary that much in perspective when both are looking at the camera man.
Take footwear into consideration and he is comfortably below 5'11 at his lowest, if you want to argue higher than you have to throw away that picture; i see no reason to, it's a good shot.

This is confusing. I am quite exactly 181 cm (at night), which means that with regular shoes on I will quite exactly clear 183 cm (which is ever so slightly over 6 foot, remember). Accordingly, my eye level is such that I would gaze straight over the head of someone who is 173 cm no matter how good their military posture was.
I guess what I'm trying to say is that generally, even a 5'11" flat should look taller than this next to you. Specifically, compare this picture with the John Amos one, Cumberbatch looks very close to his height. Of the two, one cannot be less than 5'11" and the other closer to 6' without some kind of tricks.
Also, those measuring lines seem to suggest the distance from your chin to the top of your head is 10 inches? Are you sure about that, because it seems a bit (actually, about an inch) too much... I would think it'd look a little disproportionate on you. Could be an optical illusion if you indeed have measured it.

Rob, the height scale you added shows his eyelevel to be at 5'6. That's an average eyelevel for a 5'10.5 man. Are you saying that he has a 5.5 inch eyelevel? That's massive. He could have a 5 inch eyelevel at most, so he should be 5'11, right?

Take footwear disadvantage away and Rob would stand better with Mr Cumberbatch then Tom Hardy does. Tom Hardy for me is nothing over 5'8.
Even without taking footwear into consideration, Rob is nearly reach 2/3s above his eyeline towards the top of his head. 2/3s 5 inches that is. It is therefore very reasonable to assume that benedict without the footwear advantage would look 5'10.25 with a 5'8 Rob. Giving him a height estimate of a weak 5'11 is very-very fair.

When Eddie Redmayne stands at his full height (rare) in pictures with Benedict, they are basically the same height. Both are just over 5'11".

That's weird, I always thought he was a solid 6fter like 183-184 range in most of his tv shows and movies. But standing next to Rob, he looks more 181 range (with footwear advantage)!

He doesn't look 5'11.75, but he is nothing under 5'11" consider footwear advantage. I would put him right at 5'11.25, he is most likely 183cm out of the bed and drops 2cm during the day, so solid 181cm.
Rob, if you really like to see him as 182cm, then at least put him at 5'11.5

Rob, seriously, how much difference do you have in the latest photo? If you were looking at his mouth it would be 3 inches. But you are not. It's a 2.5 inch difference. Let's say you are 5'8.5 in the pic. That makes him 5'11 flat. He also has 1/3 more shoe, so 5'10 and 2/3 in aka 179.5 cm. Mind explaining this? Even if we assume you have a 3 inch difference in the picture, it's 5'11.5 minus the third inch more shoe, 5'11-5'11.25 aka 180-181, and that's assuming he didn't sleep all night. Correct me where I'm wrong, please, because I too thought he was 182 cm and I'm a bit shocked.

Editor Rob he definitely wasn't shorter than Malcolm the photographer (who is near 5ft 11.5 himself), but I think Malcolm was in converse and cumberbatch hair made him look taller. In 2015 he didn't look 6ft range up close.

Rob, i honestly think if he did not have the footwear advantage, you could make a case of Mr Cumberbatch looking less then 2 inches taller then you. You would be very near his hairline and his hairline is not 2 inches and above. He therefore could look sub-5'10 in this picture.
But since you saw him around 5'11.5, i am keeping my weak 5'11 option open.

Taking his footwear advantage out of the equation and that picture would be a real shocker.
If Rob opted to wear thick shoes from now on and support a haircut with volume; he would basically pull-off a Hollywood "6-footer", this is without wearing elevator boots, just normal large shoes.

@Editor Rob: How tall would you say you were at the time of the picture? Between 174 and 175 cm? I feel like even if the restless night theory was the case and he had already dropped to his low or extreme low, over 181 cm range is quite hard to believe looking at the new picture... It's weird as he usually does look a decent 182 cm guy.

Editor Rob out the hotel at 8am and on feet at least 3 hours, that photo was bang on 11am, so I'd likely be anywhere in 8.25-3/8th range that moment.

I think if you had a pic with Smith, Cumberbatch and Redmayne together, standing with the same posture, they would look virtually the same, maybe Redmayne is the shorter one by a small fraction at 181 flat and Smith and Ben at 181,5-182. But who knows, they might all measure within a couple millimeters of eachother.

This is a good fit, after watching a bit of Sherlock, 5 inches is the max difference I'd see between him and Martin Freeman, at times it even looks like less of a height difference.

Lorne, i've not seen that much of Bale and Cumberbatch to be fair... But i think a guy like Alex, who is a legit 6', would be easily taller than all of them! How much is the question! Jensen, as you can see with many other celebrities Rob has met (Ritchson, Hartley, Padalecki), does look a bit under 6', i think he might be a guy who measures 182-182.5 at night, much closer to the 5'11.75 mark than 6' (with a chance of being even a bit under it maybe on a bad day)! Bale i'd say he's maybe a weaker 6' than Jensen, 5'11.5 is a good possibility for him. I mean, look at him with Brandon Routh, he can look 3 inches shorter than him, 5'11.75 is really his best case scenrario, IMO! As for Benedict, i've seen him only in The Imitation Game, which was a great movie, btw. In that movie he didn't look much over 5'11 (next to the other actors) but he also didn't have a good posture in some scenes... But he looks near 182 with Rob, so this listing seems fair! I don't know who would be the tallest, Lorne, but i'd say Bale would be the shortest :)

@Cole: Agree. But whereas you've seen less of Jensen, I've seen less of BC. But I've always liked Christian Bale as an actor, so after watching him over the years, I can safely say, just under 6ft is his height. He could be 182.5 afternoon, though, not impossible.

@Lorne: Oh boy, that's a tough one... I haven't seen Ackles nearly as much as I've seen Cumberbatch and Bale, so it's harder for me to say. Of course the easy thing to say is that they might all be very similar, beacuse it's impossible to be accurate down to the last mm without an exact measurement. I wouldn't think there'd be a very noticable difference between them though (well Ackles would probably have a bit of an edge in an event/premiere type shot, because of his tendency to wear more chunky footwear). I think Bale and Cumberbatch could possibly measure within "one or two mm" of each other (like between 182.0 and 182.3), Ackles maybe a hair above that (like nothing under 182.2-3). But then at times I think Bale has a chance at 182.5 or more. I don't know man... Their listings looks fine as is, but I guess it couldn't hurt to give Bale and Ackles the 5'11.75 as well. It's a mark that's arguable for all three of them and in light of recent events, seems the most likely as far as Cumberbatch is concerned. It would be quite interesting to see them together, but I doubt that'll ever happen... Cumberbatch and Bale though, it wouldn't surprise me if they did a movie together at some point (apart from Jungle Book: Origins)!

Ackles may be the tallest of three guys but with good posture and even angles, pretty sure there'd be practically no detectable difference between them.

You know an interesting comparison would be Jensen Ackles, Benedict Cumberbatch, and Christian Bale. Th battle of the weak 6 footers! Just for the hell of it, throw in a David duchovny or better yet, David Boreanez, for the opposing effect.
To Andrea, and Cole(and anyone else who wants to answer:)
Who would be the tallest between the three???(Bale, Cumberbatch, and Ackles?)
It's just too close to call, up until recently I may have went with Cumberbatch, but now, not so sure. It wouldn't at all suprise me though, if Avkles actually had a few mm on Bale...

@Cole: Those are good points(I know it's a been awhile but am responding now!) but, I just can't see Bale as 6 foot. Yeah, looking at Cumbernatch more the past year or so, h looks 182 more than 183, I always said 5ft11.75-6ft anyway, but, I'd still be shocked if h came in shorter than Christian Bale. I mean, a couple mm is always possible, but I think they are both legit 182 guys, who can both pull off 6ft at times, as they are both fairly slim(though Nale varies!)
Bale, I just cannot see that full 6ft. 5ft11.5 is more likely than 6ft, I still say.

Bale, I just cannot see that full 6ft. 5ft11.5 is more likely than 6ft, I still say.

Rob something a bit irrelevant. I keep measuring myself at 8am in the morning
and I am 5 11 but when I measure myself in the afternoon I am the exact same height. I also had someone else measure me to be sure. Why that?"
Because you probably never sleep or you sleep standing up like horses... :)

Yes, this is the perfect listing. He is just under 6'0". It's not readily noticeable, but after seeing photo after photo where he's ever-so-slightly shorter than legit 6'0" men, it becomes pretty obvious.

I'd rule out 5ft11.5 for Cumberbatch, but Bale may very well hit that at his low. Bale 5ft11.5-75, BC 5ft11.75-6ft, that's what I think. RSL can look between 5'11 and 6 feet, but would measure near enough 6 ft. But BC is closer to 6ft than Bale, all I am saying.
Well we've never seen Cumberbatch and Bale together, so that might be a bit of a bold statement.
Personally I see it the other way around - to me Bale has appeared a legit 6 footer more often than Cumberbatch. The way Rob told us about his meeting with Benedict and explained how he edged the near 5'11.5 photographer, but had a little more footwear - to me that means he may very well be nearer 5'11.5. If you asked me about Bale 1 or 2 years back I would have said 5'11.5 was the safest bet for him, think I even argued 5'11.25 at one point... but I've had a better look at him now and he does in fact have a tendency to stand quite relaxed plus he's often in normal footwear. Standing tall he can easily look 6ft with Jackman, Nolan, Freeman, Caine, Hardy and Cooper, at least in the shots I've seen. In comparison I can't see a legit 6 footer in Cumberbatch when he's with guys like Chris Pine, Mark Gatiss, Zachary Quinto, Martin Freeman, Mark Strong, Tom Hiddleston, Daniel Bruhl and Matthew Goode.

Looked shorter than his wax work on Graham Norton. It just goes to show you that no one ever really stands at full height unless being measured specifically. I would be that he was measured first thing one morning for his wax figure too. Morning height a solid 184cm I would bet. Maybe 182cm by the evening. Miranda Hart was eye level with his wax figure so her evening height is probably around 183cm considering the slight heel deficit ( she was in flats, the figure was in dress shoes)

@Judd: He doesn't look 6ft in the pic, and he wouldn't look 6'0.5 if he stood tall.
See the linked picture in Rob's response to Chris on the 4th of March, he's not dropping much over 1 cm with that kind of pose. Rob isn't standing perfect either, so I think BC would look about the same as Mads Mikkelsen if both stood straight - 5'11.75. If Cumberbatch can pass for 6ft, so can Mads imo.

Cumberbatch claims to be shorter than Chris Pine and Zachary Quinto, who are listed here as 6.05' and 6'1", respectively. I don't think you would really be able to tell if someone was only half an inch taller than you, so based on that, either Cumberbatch is a bit less than the flat six, Pine is taller than six and change, or Cumberbatch just isn't good at guessing people's height relative to his own.

The conclusion after a long period of little activity on this page (after his name was no longer on front page) is: 6ft is fair enough (top end of guess), but even Rob thinks 182 cm range is "quite possible", so there's no need to argue this and that. He's between 182 and 183 cm. Personally I maintain my 5'11.75 estimate, but you could argue either way between those two marks.

I think when people deny someone of their 6'0 claim is because there are a lot of guys out there who are 5'10-5'11 and try to claim 6'0. There are a lot of legit 6'0 guys out there but the thing is some of those guys who are legit 6'0 will claim 6'1-6'2!
6.1-6.2 is easier to claim as not so many guys get there to confirm if it's true or not

Haven't seen many pics of him and Clooney, but in the few I have seen, Ben looks roughly 3 cm taller. Clooney being 179 range and Ben 182 range looks right.
Like with most people, Cumberbatch gives a 182 cm impression a lot, and looks that with Rob as well.

@jon: Tell me have you actually seen anyone claiming 72 inch men does not exist?
If you read the comments and the responses from Rob further down the page, and see that this subject has been touched on multiple times already, you wouldn't have had to comment what you just did. But I'm assuming you didn't take the time to look further down because you actually felt the need to do so, so I'm going to tell you the essence of what's been said: The editor of this site, Rob Paul, also thinks he can look between 182 and 183 cm, and he's actually met the guy. It's a top end of a guess, and a low end of a guess. That applies to every single person listed on this site, unless of course you get the exact measurement.
Yes, strong 6 footers does exist, nobody in their right mind would ever deny that. But guys who are actually a little under the 6ft mark exist as well, and a fair amount of those people does get away with a 6ft listing. And when someone listed 6ft doesn't look it consistantly, more often than not, it's only fair that people mention it. It helps the editor find the range which a person can look, like with Benedict: between 182 and 183 cm. You could really go with either one.

In the gym scene, they have identical footwear, both military posture, leanord is taller. Leanord really is a 6 footer, look at him with Anne Dudek, and others. Bale was 19 when it was released, and would have been 18.5-19 during filming. Of course small growth is possible; the problem is, Bale never looks 6 feet to me, he looks 182cm range, just under 6 feet. But RSL, standing tall really does look 183cm. I have to think examples, but 6ft is a viable shout. Anyway, Growing at 19 years old is unlikely, and since Bale being a tad shorter than a 183cm guy like Leanord makes sense, then the simplest, and most likely explanation is that he was full grown, and has always been 5ft11.5-75 range.

@Alex 6ft 0: I'm not so sure, if we are going to be picky about the fractions anyhow. Rob illustrated how little you can actually lose by tilting your head like that somewhere down the comments. The top of his head is still pretty much where it would be if he held it straight, 1 cm or so higher perhaps (but don't forget Rob isn't standing perfectly straight in the picture either). He also has quite a bit of volume in his hairstyle that can fool you into thinking he's taller if it's unclear where the top of his head actually is, while Rob makes it easier to tell where the top of his head is by keeping his hair short!
3.5-6in between them is something I could see, and Rob measuring 5ft 8 and 1/8in means 5ft 11.6-7in is a plausible measurement for Cumberbatch.
Therefore 5ft 11.75in is the best listing as far as I'm concerned (that and the thing with the photographer). Factors like a slight difference in footwear and posture makes the 6ft flat possible, but still not the most probable imo, given a number of reasons I've already said a bunch of times. But again it's a question of mere fractions, the top of Rob's estimate-range is 183 cm as he's said, while 182 cm is "quite possible". 6ft isn't dead wrong, but I think it's giving him a little extra.
@Edtior Rob: Could you post the picture with some lines that illustrates where you see the top of his head compared to yours?

Bale is shorter than Robert Sean Leanord, who himself looks barely 6 feet.(though he really is a legit sixer, go to his page.) Also, Bale just doesn't look a big 6 footer, I mean liook at him with Joseph Gordon Levitt, Freeman and Caine both age 70, and even with 184cm range Bradley Cooper. I think he's as low as 5ft11.5, but 5ft11.75 is perfectly accapteble. Not to jump all over you, I do see your point, but honestly, Bale has always carried a good posture, whereas BC's stance can vary as attested by Rob. Anyway, many of my predictions have come to pass, and I firmly believe BC would edge out Christian Bale, though one thing's for sure, Bale is definently not taller than BC...

I do think Cumberbatch and Bale are right around the same height. Bale might have a little looser posture and be a bit broader in build (excepting his crazy weight losses and gains for roles), which may be why you see him dropping more than Cumberbatch, who seems leaner and lanky in build, Lorne.

So what's holding you back on going with 5ft 11.75in (182 cm)? Imo that's a listing that would add up nicely.

@jon: Why's that so laughable? Read the responses from Rob further down the page, he believes that Cumberbatch is 182 or 183 cm, either of those or somewhere between. And yes, it's perfectly possible to spot a 1 cm difference from looking at a picture.

Editor Rob to be fair, 183 is the top of my estimate range for him, 182 is quite possible. I know he appeared taller than the photographer but then BC hair is much thicker and a slight shoe advantage...
jon said on 14/Mar/14
LOL at the people saying he's 182cm or 5'11.75". As if anyone could really notice a 1 centimeter or quarter inch difference just from looking at a pic. He's listed as 183cm(6'0), so just accept that. 72 inch guys do exist, you know? The only way any one could really know if he's shorter or taller than listed is to meet him in person and have him stand barefoot and use a tape measure or something.

There are two scenarios, one of which includes Brad in lifts and the other that doesn't. In the former, if he's going to wear lifts, he's going to choose something that raise him at least two inches, otherwise, he's just wear a regular heeled shoe. In this scenario, Benedict would be 6'1". Without lifts, Brad's 6'0" in his shoes.
I'm not sure how to explain these shots.

Well in into Darkness, I didn't see a full inch between them, I mean Pine has amazing posture. I still say Pine at solid 184, Cumberbatch weak 183, it fits. Cumberbatch can dip under 6 feet, but by how much? It could be just a few mm... But 182.3-182.5, I see that, maybe 182.7, to be super specific.

Editor Rob it depends on his posture, because it varies more than some might imagine - from watching him in person with many people I can see how he can look anywhere from 5ft 11 to 6ft...he was taller than jonathan aris that day (an actor who looked his claim of 180cm...)

@Editor Rob: Deep down I think you agree that 182 cm range is what he looks :) Although it looks like you'll go with the 6ft listing, I still feel pretty good, because I've estimated him at a solid 182 cm for a long time (albeit with 183 cm as a slight possibility). The 'spot on' thing to do, in my opinion, would be to give him a 5'11.75 listing. But then again, he is pretty awesome, so it's sort of okay to leave it at 6ft ;)

Just to point out, Pine never said "6 feet even" or just 6 feet or exactly 6ft. He said "6ft 165" which to me is nonspecific. Yeah, Cumberbatch can look a weaker 6 ft, he's certainly not over the mark. I need to watch Into Darkness again, and examine his boots, cuz in that film he looked solid 6ft.

@Lorne: I agree, it's fine, there's a very thin line. But personally I think 5'11.75 is more accurate for Ben if Pine is 6'0.5. There seems to be a little more than 0.5in between them imo. Unless of course Pine is a legit 185 cm guy. Why he then would claim 6ft even is strange, if that was the case.

This guy has been advertised at 184 cm, and I think he could be 183 -184. His angular frame make him appear more 184+ like, and he could be taken for 6'1" easily. He is listed at 79 kg, or 174 pounds, but he looks more 160 - 165 lbs in many of his roles. I'd say a 6 ft 0, 183 on the nose for this gentleman. Great photo BTW Rob!

I think miko's pic is pretty interesting. Always thought Matt Smith had a big head but it must be an illusion caused by his massive chin. Next to Ben it looks normal sized. Also they look the same height. I've always though weak 6'0" for Smith and I think the same for Ben works. Maybe 6'0.25" in the morning 5.11.5" at night.
To explain the discrepancy with Pine I think he's around 6'1.25 in the morning and 6'0.5" at night.
Or to make it even easier Chris Pine is to Benedict Cumberbatch as David Tennant is to Matt Smith (in terms of height).

Brad, it is interesting that Rob MET him at a convention where he was getting paid to take pictures. Maybe he was in a better mood cuz he was making money! LOL
But seriously, We were at Fox Studios for a screening of 12 Years A Slave. At the stage door, all of the actors came out and at least said hello to us. (As you know Michael Fassbinder hung out with us for awhile. I posted the pic on his page.) BC comes out with 5 security guards, never acknowledged us who called his name and went straight to his SUV. There were only about 5 of us left, so it was not a huge crowd. At least wave to us for God's sake.

He was just barely taller than me. He is just below 6 feet. He was a real ass to us. Would not take a picture or even look in our direction.

Of course, it's hard to tell with the lean, but he loos a 6 footer to me. So he looked a legit 183 in person???

Well, I think we can safely rule out 6ft0.25 for Chris Pine! Awesome pic, Rob, a great choice indeed, and he really does look a 6 footer. My first instinct was right, again :)

Holy cow, not trying to be rude, but he'd be 5'10" with a normal sized head lol.

He could just be 6ft, 182.88cm or 183cm i would say, possibly 182.5-6cm at worst.

5'11.75" - 6'0" is my guess for Benedict

He comes across as above average on Sherlock, though there are a lot of tall people on the show (like Gatiss). I'd put him in the Matt Smith/Neil Patrick Harris range. 5'11.25"-ish maybe .5" on a good day. Like they repeat on the show he benefits greatly from having a short co-star.

@ cole You are dead on. MF is 5-10.75 and BC is an inch taller. I will send Rob my pic real soon.

@ Rampage BC's attitude didn't bother me. It was just after hanging out with Michael F for 10 minutes and having him be so coll, that BC came out with a security detail and never even looked at us or acknowledged us.

@ NJP As I have said a few times, Chris Pine is at least 6-1, and maybe a little over that.
I don't subscribe to your news letter but thanks for letting me know ;)

@Mr. R: I wouldn't lose any sleep over getting snubbed by someone like Benedict Cumberbatch. A lot of those classically-trained actors are just nutjobs who either A) can't hack fame and are introverted or B) on the other extreme get completely absorbed by it and cause migraines with their cockiness. Tom Hiddleston got a huge head after The War Horse and Thor.
This dude probably thinks he'll be the next Colin Firth or even the next Daniel Day Lewis.

@Mr. R: Judging by the few shots I've seen of Cumberbatch and Fassbender together, I'd say 5'10.5 - 5'10.75 for Fassbender and 5'11.5 - 5'11.75 for Cumberbatch. Does that match your estimations after seeing them both?

@MD, I said seemed because he walked past me so fast I did not have a good angle. But on stage he was a little taller than Michael Fassbender, who was a little below 5-11.

@BRUTAL After the screening, I waited at the door for the cast. Everyone who came out was gracious and said hello to us. Michael Fassbender hung out with us for at least ten minutes. BC was the last one to come out much later, but he had a security detail, and he walked straight to his SUV without speaking to us or even looking at us. People called his name for pics, but he did not take any.
