That was interesting! I looked up to see a rundown of a variety of actors and saw Benedict Wong, and he was photographed with the other Big Benedict of the Film World, Mr Cumberbatch. Obviously, they’ve starred together, which is gggrrrreat! 🐯
I recollected the picture of Rob and Benedict together so I headed off to his page. He didn’t look heaps shorter than Mr Cumberbatch, so I will allot him 5ft10.75, which is the average. ☺️
⭐️ He played a character called ‘Wong’ in the film the quick flash programme described, albeit briefly. That’s easy for us to remember - and him! 😋👌🏼

I thought he would be around 5’11”. He sometimes can edge out Benedict Cumberbatch in various angles despite their probable 2 inch difference.

One of the rarer cases where a celebrity looks taller than listed with Rob...
I recently watched Doctor Strange (against my will 😛) and 3 cms shorter than Cumberbatch is exactly what I thought he looked in the movie, so definitely nothing over this.

this photo's one of the biggest mysteries on the site. dude looks 5'11 at least w/ rob but rob claims with certainty that he's 178cm range. also rob, you're not exactly slouching in that photo. you're standing pretty tall! unless wong had his heel up in the photo its hard to see under 5'10 1/2.

Editor RobWong was unpredictable with folk in front so I know how I'm standing and I am dropping height in spine/right hip, also the crown of my head is a few inches behind his forehead which when you have a camera at 5ft 1 inches high, can add a fraction.

Just seen a recent video of Wong with Cumberbatch (side by side, good shot for comparing height). 5'10.25 is the max I would give him. There looked to be a 3-4 cm difference between them. Whilst he looks 5'10.5 range here, he didn't look a mm above 5'10 in the video.

@Bird in box well, in the picture with Ben, he's looking down to the camera, even myself could look barely below 5'9 with my weak 5'7 father if i do the same pose as him and my father stands tall.
While wong here stand at his tallest, so not really a fair comparison, Tilda Swinton adn Benedict Cumberbatch edge Wong out convincingly

It looks like he’s got a clear 3 inches on you in this photo, Rob. Why only 5’10.25”?

If he's 178cm ish in person, how does he give taller impression in the pic? He isn't exactly slim nor does he have small head...

Editor RobDepending on your posture and position, sometimes you could end up taller or shorter.

Wow, someone is really fixated on this actors looks. I'm more interested to see interesting looking character actors like this appear in a film than blandly handsome leading actor types quite often.

I think 5’10.25” is a very low listing for him. He’s close in stature to near 6ft Benedict Cumberbatch- 5’11.5” being his official listing here. He’s maybe 5’10.25” in his absolute lowest low with 5’10.375” most likely being his usual low and a strong 5’11” out of bed.
If he claimed 5’11”, I wouldn’t bat an eyelid.

There is hardly all 5'10 1/4 listed actors met by Rob were to be measure the correct range. Some maybe 1-3mm more and the more are 1/8 less i feel. Benedict could a bit more like 5'10 3/8 close to 179cm.

Rob, would you say that there's a greater chance of Benedict Wong or Chiwetel Ejiofor, (who are both listed at 5'10.25), measuring at 179cm? (Click Here) (Click Here) (Click Here)

Editor RobWell Ejiofor claimed 5ft 10.5 and Wong 5ft 11, 5ft 10.5 isn't impossible. There is probably a greater chance of Benedit getting near 179 than Ejiofor.
Ejiofor could have measured near it earlier in the day.

Editor Rob people can lose or gain height in photos, sometimes even a celeb can gain a bit 👍
In This photo, you have a 5ft 5 1/8th women reaching near the end of my nose! Of course she really is 5ft 5, but in that one case lost 3 inches in a photo.
