177 cm is the tallest I'd guess. 176.5 cm or 5'9.5" seems most likely. You could say that's what he looked in the 2006 Miami Vice film since he was slightly taller than Jamie Foxx but not even an inch. He actually looked identical to Foxx at the premieres for the film when both had similar dress shoes. Both the UK premiere: Click Here and the American premiere: Click Here 176 cm is probably slightly lower than I'd guess but he again doesn't look over that again in a full pic with Jared Leto: Click Here They again seem very similar in height with any difference there is possibly just posture.
At 5'9.5", Colin should easily his 5'10" claim with some of the thick boots and big heels he's worn throughout his career, particularly 20+ years ago, around 2003-04. But I think he more often struggled to even look that tall. He was always shorter than Jay Leno, even in large-heeled boots he tended to wear on the Tonight Show. You could say Leno was still 5'11" or close to it in Colin's early appearances but Colin wore even bigger heels in 2003 on what looked like vintage, 70s-style boots: Click Here but by 2012, Leno was probably closer to 5'10" than 5'11", probably 5'10.25" or certainly 5'10.5" at most and Colin was still wearing the type of boot he's often worn at at least around 1.6": Click Here but look at how he looked with Leno: Click Here You'll note he certainly doesn't appear 5'10"+ with Dwayne Wade either.

I don't think he's a flat 5'9, show me a pic where he's looked that short. At least 176cm but no more than 177cm if we are talking evening height.

Oddly enough He is listed as 5'8 and 147 In the Miami Vice Movie ( 2006) when the Main Villain is doing a background check on him on the computer screen.
They shaved two inches off his real height and listed him at 147 pounds?.....He was a min. 160-170 pounds during that film. very Odd lol

Rob, what would be his morning vs evening height?
I am 179.7 cm in morning after a good sleep and range around 177.7-178 cm at night, would you class me as 177.8 cm or 178.5?

I'm assuming they are on the same level, here, so even accounting for tilts/slouches, is 5'11"(ish) Brad Pitt in some lifts, here? I'm being generous, though, because I've never believed Colin is a full 5'10", though.

Editor RobHe can make Colin look weak 5ft 10, which a fair chunk of people estimate him at. Usually most guesses are 5ft 9.5 up to 10.

No way this guy is under 5'10". Look at the cast pics from his recent movie premieres - he is as tall as or taller than the actors listed around 5'11".

@Rob Personally, that is the highest i would ever give him, but i think you're listing of 5'9 is really good for him. Afternoon 5'9-175.5 cm seems likely for me. Many think Colin is just 5'9.5, but i disagree with that, he just gives a feeling of a guy somewhere in the 177 cm range, in the movie i mentioned particularly. I doubt he is below that.

@Rob In the movie Miami Vice, do you think that Farell looks the listed height besides Jamie Foxx?
Overall, i agree with the average guess, i think Foxx is 175.5 in the afternoon most likely.

I give him 5’9 1/2”, since he appeared half of an inch taller than Jamie Foxx. Jamie Foxx isn’t 5’9 1/4”, given how Eddie Murphy is that height, and he had Foxx by 1/4” of an inch.

I've never heard of or seen Bruce wearing lifts. Maybe in Moonlighting when he sometimes wore cowboy boots, but there's no reason he would have in Hart's War. Willis wouldn't have been much, if anything, more than 5'11" by that point. A few years later, 5'9" Justin Long in Converse could look similar to how Farrell looked with Willis.

177 cm max, but most likely 5'9.5". Look at my posts on on 28/Dec/20 and on 26/Jan/21 to see him looking the same height in full pics with 5'9" Jamie Foxx and Jared Leto. Don Johnson has since been downgraded to 5'9.25" and could look taller in a full pic with Foxx. I'd give Johnson more 5'9" flat myself. Colin's footwear sometimes gives him an advantage.

177 cm would be a much better listing although I still say 5'9.5" without boots. There's virtually no difference in this full photo with 5'9" Jared Leto: Click Here In fact, any difference that exists looks like it would disappear if Jared stood as straight as Colin. Also, Chris Pine, who claims 6' and is listed here at 6'0.5" looks a good 3" taller than Colin: Click Here Even if Foxx and Leto are 176 cm, Colin looks no taller than 176-177 range in full photos with them.

Vibram is right. Colin is maybe 5'9.5", but no more. He looked no taller than an honest 5'9" Jamie Foxx in full pics at separate events: Click Here Click Here For reference, 5'9.5" listed Don Johnson could look as tall or taller with Jamie at age 62: Click Here Also, imo, there's ample evidence showing Johnson was never over 5'9" flat himself. Colin has sometimes favored 2" heels and cowboy boots throughout his career yet never really looked over 5'10" even with them. Rewatching In Bruges again recently, I could see him at only 5'9.5" in some shots with Brendan Gleeson. Great movie, btw.

I'm watching 'Seven Psychopaths' for the first time since I've been coming along to Celebheights, and it's very funny - in the blackest type of ways. 🤭
It takes me right back to an interview I either saw on TV or read, in which Colin said that meeting and acting with Christopher Walken was an experience and a half and he had never met such a magical fellow.
This told me a great deal about Colin as a person. He must be a thoroughly genuine guy to speak like that about his fellow actor and now friend, no doubt.
Good on you, Colin!

@Junior: the better angle may be that Foxx is a legit 5’9”. I see a lot of people here say that he’s under the mark just as we do over it. You also have to remember that a lot of guys claim 5’10” that are really 5’8”. Meaning if Foxx claims 5’9” and actually is that height, it outs the other guy who is fibbing

Rising174cm said on 21/Sep/19
@Chris: That's entirely possible for all three, although I wouldn't say Foxx and Leto are listed incorrectly. Rather, it's basically 50/50 between a solid 175 and 176 cm for them. Back when the Miami Vice film came out in the mid 2000s, Jamie didn't really look above 5'9" flat and occasionally even looked shorter, but the more I see Jamie the last 5 years, he really does generally look taller than 5'9" flat and can sometimes even pass for a 5'10" guy now. Whether that's because Jamie began wearing lifts as his star was rising or because he was always a 5'9.25" guy is the question, but either way, Colin is not as much as 2 cm taller than Jamie, much less an inch. As you can see, Foxx and Farrell look the same height when both wore dress shoes at both the UK premiere and the Hollywood premiere in full pics from a straight angle and no noticeable camera advantages. As for Leto, sometimes he measures up better than a 5'9" flat guy typically would to 5'10"-5'11" range guys, but other times, he looks 5'9" flat such as with Christoph Waltz because I don't buy for a second that Waltz is 171 cm because he claimed 170 cm himself. But again, Colin and Jared look more or less the same height in a full pic from a straight angle and Jared's boots have a small heel no bigger than those on Colin's dress shoes. So even if Jamie and Jared are 176 cm, you're right to put Colin no taller than 177 because looking the same height in those full photos suggests maybe 1 cm between them, but not 2, much less an inch.
Pearce definitely seems taller than Farrell and again there's probably a 50/50 chance between 5'10" and 5'10.25" for Pearce since he claimed 178 cm and iirc, he was slightly shorter than 179 cm Russell Crowe. I'm not as familiar with Jane, though I would say Pearce seems a bit taller proportionately and can give a taller impression. Your point still remains though in that those guys are what honest 5'10" guys look like while Colin is clearly not that tall. I stand by 5'9.5" for Colin, but 5'9.75" is probably the safest listing for now. But an honest 5'10" man will stand out like Pearce or Jane because most actors who claim 5'10" are 5'8"-5'9" range or at best 176-177 cm range. Hell, some like Jeremy Piven and arguably Justin Bieber aren't even 5'8"! On the other hand a solid 5'10" will usually claim 5'11" like Patrick Swayze and Daniel Craig, 6'0" or even extremes like 5'10" flat Dean Martin claiming 6'1" or you have 5'8.5"-5'9" range actors such as Mario Lopez, Johnny Depp and Wesley Snipes claiming 5'11" or more commonly a solid 5'9" like Leto. A solid 5'10" can look tallish at times so if the solid 5'10" man is also honest then people will regularly insist the 5'10" man is taller than they claim. Similarly, regardless of whether Foxx is 5'9" flat or 1/8" to 1/4" over like Rob, what really makes him seem taller is that he's honest and claims 5'9". Now does Colin really seem like a similar case? Literally nobody outside of Glenn thinks Colin is even a fraction over like Jamie possibly is, much less 5'11"+ with the single exception of Glenn and funny enough, Glenn claims to be exactly 1.5" taller than he really is and if you subtract 1.5" from his estimate for Colin, you get 5'9.5", which actually still means he's pretty honest, especially since many don't bother with half inches and simply round, though Colin has apparently started with that recent 5'10.75" claim, which is most likely in shoes and when was the last time we saw Colin wear shoes less than an inch? More on that later.
@Chris: That's entirely possible for all three, although I wouldn't say Foxx and Leto are listed incorrectly. Rather, it's basically 50/50 between a solid 175 and 176 cm for them. Back when the Miami Vice film came out in the mid 2000s, Jamie didn't really look above 5'9" flat and occasionally even looked shorter, but the more I see Jamie the last 5 years, he really does generally look taller than 5'9" flat and can sometimes even pass for a 5'10" guy now. Whether that's because Jamie began wearing lifts as his star was rising or because he was always a 5'9.25" guy is the question, but either way, Colin is not as much as 2 cm taller than Jamie, much less an inch. As you can see, Foxx and Farrell look the same height when both wore dress shoes at both the UK premiere and the Hollywood premiere in full pics from a straight angle and no noticeable camera advantages. As for Leto, sometimes he measures up better than a 5'9" flat guy typically would to 5'10"-5'11" range guys, but other times, he looks 5'9" flat such as with Christoph Waltz because I don't buy for a second that Waltz is 171 cm because he claimed 170 cm himself. But again, Colin and Jared look more or less the same height in a full pic from a straight angle and Jared's boots have a small heel no bigger than those on Colin's dress shoes. So even if Jamie and Jared are 176 cm, you're right to put Colin no taller than 177 because looking the same height in those full photos suggests maybe 1 cm between them, but not 2, much less an inch.
Pearce definitely seems taller than Farrell and again there's probably a 50/50 chance between 5'10" and 5'10.25" for Pearce since he claimed 178 cm and iirc, he was slightly shorter than 179 cm Russell Crowe. I'm not as familiar with Jane, though I would say Pearce seems a bit taller proportionately and can give a taller impression. Your point still remains though in that those guys are what honest 5'10" guys look like while Colin is clearly not that tall. I stand by 5'9.5" for Colin, but 5'9.75" is probably the safest listing for now. But an honest 5'10" man will stand out like Pearce or Jane because most actors who claim 5'10" are 5'8"-5'9" range or at best 176-177 cm range. Hell, some like Jeremy Piven and arguably Justin Bieber aren't even 5'8"! On the other hand a solid 5'10" will usually claim 5'11" like Patrick Swayze and Daniel Craig, 6'0" or even extremes like 5'10" flat Dean Martin claiming 6'1" or you have 5'8.5"-5'9" range actors such as Mario Lopez, Johnny Depp and Wesley Snipes claiming 5'11" or more commonly a solid 5'9" like Leto. A solid 5'10" can look tallish at times so if the solid 5'10" man is also honest then people will regularly insist the 5'10" man is taller than they claim. Similarly, regardless of whether Foxx is 5'9" flat or 1/8" to 1/4" over like Rob, what really makes him seem taller is that he's honest and claims 5'9". Now does Colin really seem like a similar case? Literally nobody outside of Glenn thinks Colin is even a fraction over like Jamie possibly is, much less 5'11"+ with the single exception of Glenn and funny enough, Glenn claims to be exactly 1.5" taller than he really is and if you subtract 1.5" from his estimate for Colin, you get 5'9.5", which actually still means he's pretty honest, especially since many don't bother with half inches and simply round, though Colin has apparently started with that recent 5'10.75" claim, which is most likely in shoes and when was the last time we saw Colin wear shoes less than an inch?

@Rising I have long suspect on Jared Leto and Jamie Foxx were more 176cm guy and Colin 177cm all their low. In fact it was Rob listed three of them wrongly. Colin never look more proper 5'10 like Guy Pearce and Thomas Jane both look to be fraction over 178cm guy than a flat 5'10, it will be interesting to see one of them look solid 1/2 on Colin if make a comparison.

I don't think he's under 5'9.5" either, but I happen to think that's his height. 177 cm would be his max. In fact, Chris, Colin has looked less than 1/2" taller than Jamie in even footwear such as the Miami Vice UK premiere where they looked the same height in a full pic no less: Click Here Click Here They look the same height, no? And pretty much the same thing at the Westwood/LA premiere where they're again the same height in a full pic with both in dress shoes: Click Here Click Here Click Here Click Here
This may not be the best pic, but it is a full pic of Jamie in sneakers and Colin in pretty thick boots and a hat from their TRL appearance: Click Here
And here's a more recent full pic of Colin looking about the same height as Jared Leto, who is listed at 5'9" just like Jamie: Click Here
Even if Jamie and Jared are both more like 176 cm, that still puts Colin at 176.5 to 177 cm max. I just don't see how he can be a full 5'10" since he never looks that tall unless he has thick boots or cowboy type heels and that type of footwear should make a full 5'10" man look over 5'10" or at least 179-180 cm range, which he never does. 5'9.75" would be a much more likely listing, just like with Matt Damon. Colin's 5'10" claim was a round up and his more recent 5'10.75" claim is surely includes footwear. There's not really any noticeable difference between Colin and solid 5'9" guys like Foxx and Leto and he looks 5'9.5" more than anything else, but I could see the 5'9.75" as the most conservative listing.

I don't see him look shorter than 5'9 1/2 too. Its just that i don't see 178cm falls on him, he look alot like 177cm a low unlike 5'10 claim Thomas Jane can easily pull off over 5'10 in every occasion and look at least 178cm a low.

Rob, you know well that Colin Farrell has never look 5'10 without more footwear next to strong 5'9 Jamie Foxx and there is a max 2cm sometime only 1/2" between them when they got leveled heels footwear. Farrell deserved a little downgrade. He can look big 5'9 plus guy but not a big 5'10.

I watched a very disturbing film yesterday and today called 'The Killing of a Sacred Deer'. Colin was a sensation as a bearded heart surgeon, who has befriended a disturbed 16-year-old boy, but little does he know what's on the boy's agenda.
Colin plays the husband of opthalmologist Nicole Kidman, and at all times, even when she's in flats, you can see she's the taller of the two. Let me tell you, this film is WEIRD! It starts off comically enough, but which father mentions to his colleague that his daughter just started menstruating the week before, even if they are in the medical profession? 😲
I found this film amongst a run-down of Films Too Disturbing to see Twice. Well, I've blown that theory straight out the window, as I'm seeing the bearded Colin again this evening! 😜
5ft9.75 of sheer acting talent and mystery!

Jamie Foxx wasn't the only guy Colin looked 5'9.5" max with. Colin also struggled to look taller than Jared Leto and I thought Colin looked under 5'10" with Brendan Gleeson even before Gleeson was downgraded half an inch so it's a good time to revisit that comparison: Click Here Click Here Click Here Click Here As for Tom Hanks, he looks no less than 2" taller than Colin in this full pic: Click Here and Hanks was definitely not taller than 5'11.5" when this photo was taken. If Colin was a full 5'10", he'd look 5'10.5"-5'11" a fair amount with the type of heeled boots he often wears and that's not considering he's been caught more than once going way up on his toes like Jeremy Piven. In fact, Colin looks under 5'10" more often than he looks over it. I'm interested to see how he measures up p to Mel Gibson when they film War Pigs.

I thought of 5'9 1/2 see him with Jamie Foxx but without boots help he still look near 5'10 with aging Tom Hanks probably 5'11 1/4. I would have rule out 5'9 7/8 for Colin.

@Slim: I said almost any. There's always exceptions, but I wouldn't say you were typical in that regard. Few that height will round down and accuracy isn't that important to most. Plus, you must have been a kid then so 5'9" range is a lot better at that age than it is for a grown man. Many really don't even think about rounding to the nearest inch and that's even more honest ones. My best friend of over 25 years measured 5'9.5" -- though it may have been an early measurement -- and doesn't care about his height, but has claimed 5'10" or "about 5-10" and I remember some years back my younger sister measured 5'6.5" and has considered herself 5'7" since. With numbers in general, you're taught if you're going to round then round up a .5 though I have no idea if anyone really even puts that much thought into it. Funny enough, my Grandfather used to insist he was 5'11.75" and if someone said "So you're basically 6 feet then?" he'd reply "Nope. five eleven and three quarters." So not everyone is a fan of rounding lol.
In Colin's case, he has been fond of big heeled boots since early in his career and has been caught tip-toeing on more than one occasion so if anything, I'm surprised he's always been listed 5'10" and claimed that. Funny enough, Jamie Foxx can almost fool me into thinking he's a 5'9.5" guy who rounds down the last 5 years or so and could look as tall as Colin.

One of THE RARE in Hollywood -- Colin speaks the truth about his height and weight. Met him twice. Solid 5' 10" bare foot and 165lbs. Given his excellent proportions, dark looks and perfect hair, he can actually claim 6 feet, but remains modestly confident in his respectable stature. Slightly wild but good bloke.

It's not another example of Colin looking very similar to guys around 5'9' like Jamie Foxx and Jared Leto or similar to a probable 5'9" and change guy like Woody Harrelson. I'm still convinced Colin is a 5'9.5" guy, but with the type of boots he often wears, he can pass for 5'10". I'm having trouble seeing a full 5'10", though because the bigger heels and thicker boots should have him looking 179-180 cm quite a bit and I don't really see that.

I've never been sold on Woody being a flat 5'9". Colin looked like he might edge out Foxx at the LA premiere if he stood straight, though they did admittedly look the same height at the UK premiere with similar posture and shoes. Colin was still shorter than Leno who was 5'10.25"-5'10.5" max in 2012: Click Here and this was in some healthy sized cowboy boots: Click Here Click Here That also suggests a full 5'10" is too high as he should have looked at least as tall as Leno with a minimum half inch footwear advantage. Big heels on that show have been the norm for Colin going back to at least 2003: Click Here Click Here
5'9" flat is too low, he's an easy 5'10" in the morning and likely a legit 5'9.5", imo.

Colin looks pretty short here with 5'11" Donald Faison and 5'11.5" Zach Braff: Click Here Both are slouching, Colin is pushing down on their shoulders and potentially has more footwear as his jeans cover his shoes, yet he's still shorter than both.

He actually looks the same height as Foxx at the UK premiere as I posted below, both in dress shoes. They look basically the same height at the LA premiere as well, but Colin looked to have looser posture there so I could buy him a half inch taller. Colin only looked 3/4" taller when he had thick boots and Foxx had sneakers: Click Here This was before Jamie's apparent late growth spurt. He was usually not looking taller than his 5'9" claim back then, as you could see with Bruce Willis who looked at least 2" taller and Tom Cruise, who in dress shoes with no more than 1" lift max, looked within 1 cm of Jamie. This adds up with how Colin looks with another 5'9" guy Jared Leto. They're basically the same height depending on whether Leto gets a 1/4" advantage from his boots to Colin's dress shoes or if he's losing a fraction more from his posture. Here, Bryan Cranston in Converse with loose posture actually edges out Colin standing straight in cowboy boots: Click Here Although other times Colin cowboy boots looks as tall as Cranston in dress shoes. I'd give Colin 5'10" morning, but if Jamie is 5'9" on the nose, I can't give Colin more than 5'9.5". He can often look from 5'9" to 5'10". I saw some of S.W.A.T. on TV recently and Samuel L. Jackson pretty much towered over Colin by at least 4", sometimes 5". The height variation is probably due to the fact that Colin often wears boots and at times favors cowboy boots and up to 2" Cuban heels plus you can find a few photos of him tip-toeing at premieres.

I wouldn't be surprised, he could look very similar to Jamie Foxx who only claims 5'9". Here's a full shot in similar shoes at the UK premiere:
Click Here Same thing at the LA premiere with both in dress shoes again: Click Here Click Here Colin only looked noticeably taller by near an inch when he had a boot advantage to Jamie's sneakers, which adds up with Colin 5'9.5" barefoot to Jamie's 5'9". Foxx can look taller than 5'9", but also can look shorter. In reality, we can be pretty sure he's a legit 5'9", which makes him an ideal measuring stick for Colin, especially with multiple premieres and multiple full body shots in similar shoes as well as video. You can argue a full 5'10" for Colin, but then a 5'9.5" guy can easily look 5'10" with boots, which Colin often wears. There's a pretty narrow range you can argue with Colin since he claimed 5'10" and studio publicity always listed him at that making it his max, but he's also clearly not below 176 cm at any point.

However 6'1" Brendan Gleeson can almost dwarf Colin: Click Here Part of it is Gleeson's large frame, but even Colin's head only looks an inch above Gleeson's eyes. Though if Gleeson was still more 6'1.5" there then Colin would still look a good 176 cm. In reality, that could only be his absolute low, imo.

Yeah, I'm sure Colin is at least 5'10" in the morning, but 5'9.5" midday would explain more why Colin looked almost identical in height to Jamie Foxx when both had similar shoes. I saw a but of Minority Report on TV a few days ago and Max Von Sydow who was around 6'2" range by that time did dwarf Colin.

I've long been convinced Farrell is 5'9.5", just like Matt Damon. His claim was about as honest as you could expect, merely a round up or a morning height. Both in dress shoes, he barely edges out legit 5'9" Jamie Foxx: Click Here Video of the event shows the same thing. They're close enough in height to look the same with Foxx's arm around his shoulder, but I'm sure Colin would be a fraction taller standing straight.

I think Farrell is 5"10. Any discounting him his just pure vitriol (which I've never understood because he's a great actor and a very down to Earth person). Amongst co-stars like Al Pacino, Tom Cruise, Jeremy Renner, Cillian Murphy, Jared Leto, Ewan McGregor, Jamie Foxx, Sam Rockwell and Ben Wishaw he is undoubtedly taller. I challenge anyone to find a more accurate 5"10.

I wouldn't rule out 5ft9¾ but 5ft9 flat or lower is out of the question.
Around 5ft10 is about right for Farrell.

I guess Rob's right. He looks 1-2cm or at times the exact same height as Ewan Mcgregor who's 177cm. Colin seems like a very honest and genuine dude in general when I've watched interviews so I wouldn't think he lied about his height. At most, rounding up like most people do anyway. 177-178cm for Colin.

I thought he looked more 1-1.5 than a full 2 inches over Sam Rockwell. Despite their height loss, it looked like Tom Waits and definitely Christopher Walken were still taller than him as well. In general, though, I think he looks pretty close to the 5'10" mark. He should stick to Martin McDonaugh movies or comedies like Horrible Bosses, I find him kind of annoying in other films at times.

5'10 is a decent enough claim, but he looks like a 5'9.5 guy a lot - rounding up to his morning height of around 5'10 isn't bad compared to a lot of other hollywood claims - but never the less he should be listed 5'9.5. 6'0.5 Chris Pine has a good 3 inches on him: Click Here

What does it take to get you downgrade someone? Colin Farrell is absolutely not 178cm. If he was he would look much taller on the big events which he never does. The photos with Jamie Foxx (listed as 5'9, he is probably 174 since Foxx himself said "i'm like 5'9" which means that he rounded up. I'm not sure of Farrells height but he is definitely under 178cm.

He really does look around his claim, or at worst, he's a half inch under and rounding up. Looks completely average and despite the big heeled boots he's sometimes worn and the tip-toeing photos, I don't think he's a lift guy.

Watching Total Recall right now on HBO. His upper body looks very short compare to his legs. In the anti-gravity scene where he escapes the bot-cops, there is a clear view of his footwear. Memory lapsed Hauser was standing tall on 2.5 inches hills. Who knows what he was wearing on the inside. And despite of that, listed 5'10.5" Bryan Cranston appeared a good 2 inches taller than him.
Collin has quick shutter fiery, intense eyes and a small feminine nose topped by oft-tormented brows but he doesn't even reach average height in reality. My guess is 5'8.25 for the dude. He also looked visibly shorter than 5'9" listed Jamie Fox in Miami Vice.

I Also think he looks more 5'9 than 5'10. He can keep up with the 5'11 actors because he often uses these massive boots which will give him twice as much height. That's why he looks 5'11 with boots next to a legit 5'11 guy with dressing shoes (6ft).

@Rich with Sam Rockwell he looks 5'10" to me, there are a few you could cherry pick to make him look 5'8" or 5'9", but that's just normal. People fluctuate heights in photographs.
I can't see a picture of him with Justin Long on that link. He still looks 5'10" in most of those pics.
They probably wanted to make TC look taller in Minority Report, for all you know he was stood on a box in that photo. Not really good evidence.
As for the tip toe picture, again doesn't prove anything except he's insecure, which many 5'10" guys are.

@RisingForce: McGregor's dropping posture in that pic with Farrell, and Farrell stands sideways. It's difficult to tell because of the hair, but still at the most I'd say they are about the same height, 176-177 cm range.
He looks a strong 5'9 or so with Chris Pine and Edward Norton for example, and the same with most other celebs that I have seen him with, when not wearing his boots.
Rob I think you should at least lower him to 5'9.75.

The difference between Colin and Ewan McGregor(listed 5'9.5" here) is about the same as the difference between Jamie Foxx who claims 5'9". Click Here
Colin definitely looks his claim if Ewan's listing is accurate. Though it does make me wonder again if Jamie Foxx is actually a fraction over 5'9". In fact, Jamie might have measured up slightly better next to Colin than Ewan does when Colin wasn't wearing boots.

From pics with Jessica Biel and Kate Beckinsale in Berlin, he is about 1" taller than both of them while these ladies wear 3" or more heels. If he is less than 5'8", Jessica Biel and Kate Beckinsale are less than 5'5". So, 5'9" seems reasonable.

Why do so many posters ascertain a height by comparing it to another actors heigh which is an extremely poor way of estimating height. How do you know the actor your comparing him to is the correct height either as most listed celeb heights are way off? The most accurate celeb estimates on this board are based on first-hand posters who have been near to and or next to the celebrity in question as I've seen those celebrities myself and can testify to their accuracy.

5'9 or so in Seven Psychopaths. Sam Rockwell is around 5'8 and Farrell usually had two inches on him, but Farrell wore cowboy boots throughout the film which gave him a noticeable advantage most likely, so 5'9 or even slightly under is probably right.

I was right behind him at LAX in the security line. No shoes for either of us.
Colin is no more than 5'7" in bare feet.

I'm convinced Colin and Jamie Foxx are virtually the same height. I don't think Jamie is 5'10", but he can look it, so lifts are possible. I'd go with 5'9.5" midday/evening for Colin, and perhaps 5'9.5" for Jamie, though I'll give him 176 cm like Rob mentioned. But legit 5'10" is certainly possible for Colin. He can look pretty tall, then again, he wears boots a lot and a few times wore giant heels.

I don't have any problem with you at all, Shredder. Sorry if you interpreted it that way. For what it's worth, you're one of the best posters here, imo.

Shredder, don't forget that Glenn went by morning height. Rob has said he lists celebrities at their height around lunchtime, so a 5'10" listing would make Colin about 5'10.5". And while Glenn's estimate was 5'11", he did say 5'10" was possible, he just guessed taller. So as usual, the stuff with Glenn is exaggerated, but that's all I'll say on that subject since I don't want things to get sidetracked.

Rob, in this premiere video and full body shot pics when Colin and Jamie Foxx were both in dress shoes, they really look the same height. So if you were to make a change, would it be upgrading Foxx to 5'9.5", downgrading Colin to 5'9.5" or putting them both at that height?

Editor Rob foxx as has been talked about in the past, could be a guy who is a fraction over 5ft 9 but just said 5ft 9, like 176 range. Farrell I think is pretty near 5ft 10

I have been face to face with him, I'm 5'2" and he was only a very few inches taller. The only way he's 5' 10 is with 6" lifts. Or maybe small stilts.

This guy feels short, see his shoes here Click Here
His body proportions reminds me of Stallones, I think Farrels height is between 5'8.5" and 5'9.5"

i stood right next to him outside the Marquee club in NYC years ago and he was NOT taller than me and I'm 5'8". Honestly he is about 5'6". And there is nothing to be ashamed about being that height. I mean the guy has a gorgeous face.
