STOP with all these 6"3' estimates. Morgan Freeman is a tall dude, but that's not the question. He's 187cm tops. Take a look at him with Tim Robbins, towering him by at least 10cm or Michael Jordan also by 10cm. Now even if Jordan is 6"5', that makes Morgan no taller than 6"2'.

6"2' is the best I give him.

He's 6'3" still, no doubt maybe a tad taller. I have a couple of 6'5" friends, he hardly appeared much shorter, when I saw him in person.

6'2" MAX. 10cm more than Brad Pitt in Seven, sorry for all the women who love Brad Pitt, but he's a weak 5'10". 5'11" is his dream height. Compare him with Eduard Norton for more proof.
Morgan Freeman compared to Christian Bale is 6-7cm taller. Bale is a weak 6 footer, more a strong 5'11".

He was about 2 inches taller than Brown. Clancy was probably 6ft3 at that time. So he could be 6ft5 for all we know.

Also James in certain camera angles it could look like there was a lot of height Robbins had over Freeman and Brown but up close, Robbins had a similar amount of height over the 2 guys. So Clancy Brown and Morgan Freeman seem pretty much even in height.

6 foot 3 is just a little exaggerated. He is not that tall and jim carrey is a tall man. He looks built for a 77 year old man and was maybe 10-13cm taller than jack nicholson. I would say he's 6 foot 2 max. I just cant see him taller.

Actually Clancy was about half an inch taller than Freeman. However Freeman probably lost a bit of height by that time. I'd say Freeman was 6ft3 at his peak and now a solid 189cm. Still legitimitely tall.

The first time I recall seeing Freeman is in Robert Redford's 1980 "Brubaker". He looked easily 6'3" and very very tough!! After 28 years and being 70+ years in age, I'd expect him to now be 6' 1 1/2" or so. I am 66 and have lost 1 inch in height from my prime.

I watched shawshank redemption and he was shorter than tim robbins by about 12 cm. In the bucket list he was taller than jack nicholson who is 173cm. In Bruce almighty he was shorter than jim carrey. I would say he's 6 foot. That's a good height for a 77 year old man. He is a respected actor. He's a good actor.

I like Freeman for 6'2.5. Personally, I think Caine or Robbins is a better measuring stick than Bale. Bale seems height shifty to me. Also, isn't Bill Murray tall? I always thought of him as 6'1 or in that neighborhood.

i believe morgan is in the 6'2-6'3 range,because thats where clint was back in 1990-1992.

I think he could have been as tall as 6'3.5" at his peak. Still looks a solid 6'2"-6'2.5" today at 70 years old. Appeared to be taller than David Letterman only this month on his show. Tim Robbins did have 3-4" on Morgan in Shawshank Redemption (1994), but then again, I believe that Tim is NO less than 6'6".

Just saw Batman Begins. There's some interesting scenes with Freeman and Bale where they are looking eye to eye. Definitely, the camera angles and tall footware Bale probably wore were at work in these scenes. Another movie that makes Freeman look shorter is Lean On Me, where there's a scene with some of the school staff in an office where several of the men are taller than Freeman. These must have been some really tall extras. Freeman is an easy 6'3" as I've seen him on a flat surface and face to face at the Hilton Torrey Pines.

Maybe Freeman's health is better than Travolta's, Willis' and Eastwood's, even at his age. And, in what respects to ethnic origins, Freeman is -according to his own words as I read on an interview- mixed black, french and indian. Obviously mostly black, of course. BTW, a very good presence and acting!

Editor Rob there wasn't that much between them in their scene, with freeman having around 2cm footwear advantage

Freeman was easy 191cm at his peak. Watch Eyewitness (1981) and see him next to Woods. He's easy 11-12 cm taller than Mr Woods.

I saw Lean on Me yesterday and Morgan towered over everyone, including 5'8" or 9" Robert Guillaume. May have been 6'3" at his peak, 6'2 1/2" on that movie in 1989 and 6'2" today.

Just watched Street Smart(1983) with Morgan Freeman and Christopher Reeve, and Freeman was at most an inch shorter than the 6ft4 Reeve. Granted Reeve's slouches and hunches his shoulders a lot in movies, but when he stood up straight they were very close in height. In Million Dollar Baby he was about a 1/2 inch taller than Eastwood, making him in the 6ft2 range now, which would make sense, the guy is in his mid 6o's. Rob's estimates are spot on!

no, i met morgan freeman in person when he and jet li were in new york to plug their new movie, unleashed, morgan was no taller than 6-1. If jordan is 6-4ish, then morgan is no taller than 6-1, possibly less. 6-3 is preposterous...

Yup, yup. I work at the front of a 5 star hotel in Los Angeles. We get every, and I mean every celebrity you could imagine there. As a result, you'll see my postings all over this site, either verifying or rebuffing celebs' heights. One thing's for sure, Morgan Freeman looks at least twenty years younger than he really is. He has fantastic posture and quite a charm to him. In person, one can plainly see why this guy made it big in the industry.
I'm 6'1 7/8" tall. Morgan Freeman had me by about a half inch. The both of us were standing straight up (I made sure I was), on even ground and with similarly thick shoes. He is a legitimate 6'2 1/2". Sweetest fella, as well.

how could you distinguish 0.5-1 in of difference just by looking at somebody? you can tell if a person's EYES are higher in the air than your EYES, but that doesn't mean that he/she is taller

Well, JJ, I was standing on a sloping sidewalk on which he was standing on the taller part, but I still maintain at least 6'2". If celebheights says 6'2.25" I'd buy that.

Well Sam I am telling you he's not 6'2". I am a legit 6'1.5" and when I saw him he looked as tall as or slightly shorter than me. He was only a few feet from where I was standing.

JJ, I was measured a little bit over 6'4" in a physical, without shoes on. And I'm telling you, Morgan Freeman is not under 6'2", and is if anything a little over that. Of course, I didn't stop him to measure the amount that his shoes added, but if they were platform shoes, I think I would have noticed.

With shoes on he might be close to 6'2", I am talking about real height here. You even said you are ABOUT 6' 4.5", and I presume with shoes on. Without shoes you are about 6'3, depending on the type of shoes you are wearing? So Morgan is right around 6'1" WITHOUT SHOES if you think he's 2" shorter than you.
I thought he looked shorter than 6'2" even with shoes on though.

I saw him in person in New York and he looked very tall to me. The sidewalks slope somewhat and he was standing on the upper part and it helped that his posture was impeccable, but he definitely looked over 6'2", closer to 6'3". I myself am about 6'4 1/2" and I would have ventured to guess that he was approximately 1 1/2 to 2 inches shorter. No way is he 6'1".

If you measure the top of his hair maybe. I saw Morgan recently at a charity event, and he looks no taller than 6'1" with shoes on.
