Taron is 5'9. And he looks 2.5 inches taller I'd say, 5'6.5. He looked more than 3 inches shorter than 5'10 Daniel Craig in Defiance.

Was on a tv show with him. Extremely small in person; diminutive. Tough to say as I’m 190, but he’s about five five.

watching the series turn, i was struck by how short he looks compared to some of the actresses he is acting alongside so i came on the net to find out how tall he is.
he is listed as 5'7" but there is no way that is even close to accurate.
look at the photo above with jamie standing next to taron egerton. this is a photo without an angle that shows their clear relative height. taron's height is listed as 5'9" but in this photo jamie bell is without a doubt at least 3 or even 4 inches shorter.
either taron egerton is taller than the 5'9" he claims to be or jamie bell is far shorter than he admits.

With James McAvoy he does look almost the same, but I think James might be just a bit taller. I would guess Jamie is 169cm.

Do you think he has bad posture sometimes? He can look a tad less than this listing standing next to Daniel Craig.

I have only just found out that Jamie is married to actress Kate Mara. At 5ft2, and being 5" below Jamie's 5ft7, you could say that it's an ideal pairing in the height department as well as everything else, and they have one child together - so far!
By the way, it's time to say:
🎁🎈🎂🎉 Happy Birthday Jamie! 🎉🎂🎈🎁
It's Jamie's 34th Birthday today, so here's wishing him a wonderful day with his family and friends.
5ft7. 😄🍻👨👩👦

Last night I saw the film I was talking about in my comment from June of last year, 'The Retreat'!
I must say that Jamie looked taller than 5ft7 and is very powerfully built! I'd forgotten that he was only 5ft7, and based on last night's viewing, I would have believed 5ft9+ for him! Camera angles were probably partly responsible, as was the fact that he looked huge next to Thandie Newton! Cillian Murphy, the other main male star in this film, has a well-proportioned body, and also could pass for taller. I think he is about the same height or maybe an inch taller than Jamie, but in this film, you would never have guessed that any of the roles were played by stars of below-average height. They worked well together because they are all about the same amount below average, and then there is the tiny little additional fact that the film is very tense throughout - and well worth checking out!
I give Jamie 5ft7.

He and Tom Holland are brothers half an inch apart. He could have played Spiderman too. So nice to think of a short successful older brother like guy. Oscar Isaac falls under the same category but clearly gives the awesome older boss vibes.

Editor Rob when you become famous, suddenly the interest and opinions in all aspects of your life increase dramatically.
With celebrity, their image is part of their earnings, so it's understandable why some have lied a bit, to project a taller impression to the public.
Good liars make great actors.

As soon as I read his own description of himself (above), I realised that yes, I was looking at the right actor of quite a few with 'Bell' as a surname, when I noticed his 'slightly jug ears'!
I also took in that he was around the same height as Cillian Murphy - I am watching the film 'The Retreat' - and that there is a marked difference between him and Thandie Newton, 5ft3 tops.
I like his humour, calling himself a 'strapping 5ft7 with slightly...' (Well you know the rest!)
It would appear Jamie is open about his height, and why shouldn't he be? Neither does he grow his hair over his ears! He has accepted himself, and maybe there is a lesson there for all of us - to accept ourselves too!
Jamie gets his strapping 5ft7 then, and he can have a pint for his blatent honesty! 🍺

Together Mara he seems 165-168 cm tall. However imho it is a normal height. Tall people think that all people under their height are tiny however normal height is between low and high values. The average world height is 165 cm.

To be fair, he and McAvoy looked the EXACT same height in the movie Filth. So perhaps he is the 5'7 after all.

Jamie bell, with 5'2 kate Mara walking barefoot on the beach with various angles, Jamie doesn't look a full 5 inches taller than her. 5'6.5 is probably more realistic.

The Thing in Fantastic Four 2015 is
HEIGHT:6'8

The power of C.G.I.:He wore a tracking suit and stilts to match the height and eye-line of The Thing.
A 5'7 guy who has the face of a fourteen year old boy can look like Monster Hero.

Seriously doubt this guy is five seven based on the pictures down below. I think 5'5.5-5'6 is the most likely range. Especially if MD is correct and thinks that Jordan is only 5'10.

A few things about the first two photos...
Michael seems - as usual - to have better posture than just about everyone else. That said, he doesn't have a footwear advantage against any of them. And, quite frankly, I've been arguing for some time that they are both very slightly over listed, Michael closer to 5'10" and Teller not quite 6'0" (maybe more 181 or 182). As for what Jamie looks next to them, I'll leave it for you all to decide.

@unknown Bro Simon Pegg is 5'8.75 thus almost 5'9. So i think u r right about the difference but not the estimate 5'6.75 for Bell is right. Nick Frost is more 171 in my opinion. Strong 5'7 range 5'7.25.

Just read in Entertainment Weekly Jamie claiming "5-8." He said the CGI transformation of him into The Thing on the new Fantastic Four reboot would instead make him "6-8." I think he's a slightly less than 5-8 and probably more like 171cm.

You should see Jamie Bell in his latest movie - Eagle. He has put on a lot of upper body muscle and looks pretty ripped. I know he is listed as 5'7" but in some of his movies he looks taller(5'9") up against tall actors like Hayden Christiansen and medium-tall Daniel Craig. Maybe it is lifts or he has continued to grow into his early 20s.
