I am 5 feet, 10 inches. I am not short, but I am not tall by any means. It wasn’t until I became an actor and I would meet people. They would say, “Wow, you’re short (laughs)!”
People are used to seeing me onscreen. It would never cross my mind that I was a short person. I don’t think that I am. But I’ve also been in a room next to Chris Hemsworth, Chris Evans and Chris Pratt—name your Chris (laughs). I am aware of my physical presence. I’m very aware that, oh, there’s a reason that they cast me as the guy who rides around on the back of an ant (laughs).

He's one of the tougher actors to pinpoint. The 5-9 listing is reasonable because of it.

I'm trying to figure out what's going on in this picture...
The dude in the middle, is a guy I know called Curtis and he is legit a 5'6" guy...
So Alicia has massive heels on and is about 1 inch 1/2 shorter than Paul there, so Paul MUST be 5'8" HALF max...?

In between average and short
174cm range
Long overdue for a downgrade
Same height as Depp and statham
Quite disagree, Rudd can have 5'9 but i don't think he would fully carry it to afternoon, and as for Depp, he's not that short at least in his prime, because that would make Leo only 179 cm and Brad Pitt only 176-177 area(my height) which many people choose to believe this but i'm not one of them, i still think he was a weak 5'11 barefoot, his current barefoot height maybe just 5'10 and a fraction, or maybe flat 5'10? it's super confusing because he covered the possible shrinkage with his cuban heels most of the time, but i don't think he would measured full 5'11 even in lunchtime now

I believe Paul Rudd wakes up a touch over 175 and walks around at 174 for most of the day. Definitely in the average range for the older U.S. generation.

I just watched “Hot Ones” with host Sean Evans and they had Paul Rudd on. I found it interesting that when they stood side by side, Evans was about an inch taller and he’s listed as 5’8”. There’s no way in hell Rudd is 5’9”.

5´9 or 1/4 under. But his head is 1 cm longer than average for his height and that can make him seem shorter than he is. I think he really can measure 5´9.

It's kind of hard to really tell. Seems a little shorter than 5'9" but he also has a slight build with seemingly short arms and legs and small hands and feet which makes him seem smaller. Maybe a strong 5'8"/weak 5'9" (~5'8.5").

Rudd and Carell are actually pretty close to the same height in a fair shot but Carell may be about a cm taller. Rudd being a 0.25-0.5” under 5’9” was in keeping with my seeing in person a long time ago.

Yes, after watching Halloween:The Curse of Michael Myers recently it is very clear that Paul looks an average tall-ish 5'10-5'11" man throughout. Even his co-star Marianne Hagan looks like an average height woman,still had some inches over her. Donald Pleasence was an elderly man at 75 so he shrunk lots of inches making Paul's height more towering and being an youngster with a slim build.
Also worth noting that when Paul stood in front of Michael Myers in the ending he still looked 5'11" next to the 6'4" guy.
It's astounding that many seem to estimate Paul to be some shorter guy like 5'6-5'8". He never looks under 5'9". Going by these estimates he is about 5'10.

Paul Rudd looked a solid 5ft10 next to Famke Janssen in many pics and in 'The Ten'. She's listed as 5ft11½ here and was about an inch and a half over Paul.
So Paul is more a solid 5ft10 max.

Agreed, more likely 5'8.5" than 5'9" as Carrell does look a bit taller and Michael Cera could even look taller in some photos. Keep in mind, Michael Douglas was struggling with 5'8" more than a decade ago as he was clearly shorter than Kiefer Sutherland in 2009. More recently, Michael is consistently shorter than 5'8" Alan Arkin making him 5'7.5" max.

I think 5’8 1/2 is debatable my uncle is five eight and a half and they resemble each other a little bit though I’m built similar to my uncle and I’m 5’9, 5’8 7/8ths at my lowest, and between 5’9 3/4 5’9 7/8 in the morning. I would guess him anywhere between 5’8 1/2 and 5’9. Steve Carell I would guess him between those two although he seems taller then Paul Rudd though if you watch dinner for schumcks actually Rudd looked taller then Carell or is the same exact height and shorter then Nick Kroll who is listed 5’8 3/4.

From looking at the three because I look at pics of Phillip Seymour Hoffman with Justin Theroux. I would put PSH at 5'9 1/4, JT at 5'9, and Paul Rudd at 5'8 3/4, I would say 5'8 1/2. though with Jeremy Renner he seems more 5'9 then 5'8 and Rob has a pic with him. Phillip Seymour seemed to have heigjt on Justin Theroux compared to Justin Theroux with Paul Rudd. They're probably within a quarter of a inch and all of them within 5'9 a little under or little over.

how the heck can paul rudd be as tall as this listing? here he is walking alongside justin theroux....

justin theroux is supposed to be 5'8 to 5'9 (?) and in the pic paul rudd is tiny next to him. Rob, what do you make of that pic above? cause either theroux is taller than listed, or rudd is smaller than listed.

Adz: The simpler explanation is Chris Evans is not 6 feet. Paul Rudd is just another Big G, that is, someone who claims to be 5'10", but isn't even 5'7".

I might be in the minority here but I reckon Rudd needs an upgrade here. He stands up well next to 6ft Chris Evans and looks like has nearly 2 inches on Jeremy Renner. 176 to 177cm for me.

This guy is no bigger than 5’8”. Looks short in every movie and always seems to wear shoes like Dr Martens, which are great for camouflaging lifts.

Rob, you really should add Halloween 6 to his acting accreditations. He did, after all, play a main role in the movie. I guess maybe you haven't seen it, but his role as Tommy Doyle was featured prominently.

Maybe the reason people say he's short is because he is short? (referring to the second quote). That being said I doubt he's taller than 5'8" Watching his new movie on netflix, there are scenes with him beside 6'2" Jeff Daniels and he looks diminutive next to him. I'm 5'8" range myself, and I don't even look that small next to my 6'2" friends.
Don't get me wrong, I like Paul Rudd, but there's no way he's the 5'10 he claims.

He's 174-174.5 range, imo. Michael Douglas is about 171.5 the last few years or no more than 172 max and was wearing flat sandals: Click Here Click Here Footwear was closer at other events, but still to Rudd's advantage: Click Here Click Here Click Here There's some premiere footage too, but I haven't seen any from a straighter angle. Douglas doesn't seem to care much about height anymore, but Rudd does seem to have footwear with a pretty thick sole at these events. 174 range looks possible with Jimmy Fallon as well.

I think he needs a slight downgrade to at least 5'8 3/4" like Michael Cera and Shia Labeouf. If neither of them are full 5'9ers than neither is Rudd IMO.

No way he's 5'9., he's a total shortie . If you look at the photos where he's with his family receiving his Hollywood star of fame , he's clearing wearing some serious Tom Cruise-type platform shoes . It almost looks as though he's trying to hide them with his hand when he's crouched down in front of them and the platform bases are super obvious and weird . I'd guess he's about 5'7. You can easily compare a "normal" shoe of his son and his right next to it . The heel has got to be 1 1/2 inches to 2 inches , plus the base sole of the shoes are about 1 inch on top of that . Awww...

I remember him from that Halloween film. In fact, it's one of the films I remember him most from. But 5'9" is the absolute most I could see him and I really think 5'8.5" or 5'8.75" are more likely seeing him with a 5'7" guy like Michael Pena or a not even 5'9" Michael Cera. Plus, just slightly taller than 5'8.25" Jeremy Renner.

He doesn't look small at all though, I thought he looked an easy 5'10 in Ant Man, and appeared 5'11 in Halloween 6: The Curse of Michael Myers, yeah he was in that movie, did anyone know? Actually Rob, can you add that he's been in Halloween 6? He's listed in the credits for the movie, he played an adult Tommy Doyle. Anyway he gets 5'9.5 from me because he pulls off 5'10 at times.

Strangely, he looked an inch or two taller than Jeremy Renner and at absolute most two inches shorter than Chris Evans in Captain America: Civil War. I suppose you never know what is or is not in their shoes.

In Ant-Man, he stood slightly taller than Michael Douglas. Assuming similar footwear, and that Michael Douglas is now 173cm, I'd say Paul Rudd is 174cm and no more. A listing of 175cm is a bit generous.

@Short Guy You can't see a clear difference of body complexion just by 1 inch lol
Ryan Reynolds head is huge and with wide pants he looks short, but he's 6'2 almost the same of Ben Afleck or Hugh Jackman who looks way taller if you look at them separately

walked by Rudd in TriBeCa (NYC). We were both in sneakers. I am 5' 7" bare foot. In sneakers, he was a solid inch taller than I am, but not two inches taller. I was surprised, because I expected him to be exactly my height. He's between 5' 8" and 5' 8.5".

I don't think there's any way he's the 5'9 listed here. I just watched Ant Man. When he takes his shirt off, he's in superb shape. However, when he's in his poorly fitting clothes, he looks both short and squat. A fit 5'9 guy NEVER looks like that. I'm 5'8 and Paul has all the body tells of someone my height or less. Just look at the size of his head relative to his body. Paul's a great actor, good looking, fit, nice hair for an old guy, and ... short. I'd put money on sub 5'8 at night. He's definitely not tiny (5'6 or less), but he's clearly in the range of "below average but still pretty normal".

Based on having seen him in person, I think 5'8.5"-5'8.75" would be his accurate listing. He's still taller than several other male Avengers co-stars, like Ruffalo, Downey Jr. & a smidge over Renner.

In 1995 I had extended face to face conversation with him while both of us were standing. I am 5'3". I very, very, barely had to look up to talk to him eye to eye. I would have put him at 5'6" at the time, tops. He was 25. I don't know if men grow past that age but if they don't, there is absolutely no way he's 5'9". Doesn't matter, still love him, but no way.

But yes, I used to claim 5'10 and I know a couple people even my stepdad claim 5'10 and were all the same height though I know more 5'10 men and woman that would look an inch taller, and guys that are 5'9 1/2 would look an half an inch taller than me. So yeah I can understand why a lot 5'9 guys claim 5'10 because maybe they're thinking it's okay.

He has an odd build/short legs,however he doesn't look very short next to his co-stars,such as Seth Rogen(5'11 solid),.His height can fluctuate from as high as 5'10" due to his thick hair and maybe once and a while good posture. I'll be fair and give Paul a solid 5'9"-5'10 max,esp. since he's 45!. Plus it's hard not to look small next to Jason Segel IF you're under 6foot.
So in all,Rudd is 5'9,5",Rogen is 5'11",and Segel is 6'4".

I saw him in person in NYC and estimated him at the same exact height as FM did. As to Carell, they're very similar range. It is possibly that Carell slightly edges out Rudd in height, though both can look taller than the other depending on camera proximity and posture. Anyway, I think 5'8.5"-5'8.75" are better listings than 5'9" for Rudd. Rudd's self claimed 5'10" height (on The Daily Show) is probably him in generous shoes (in the morning?).

You know he's 5'8-5'8.5 area why list him at 5'9?

As I said, when I met him in NY we were close to the same height. We both had normal footware. I'm a weak 5'9", meaning I'm 5'9" in the morning, and if I stand straight. At night, I'm probably a bit under 5'9". And if I slouch, can give the appearance of probably even under 5' 8". So, I think at his tallest he is 5'9", but can easily seem an inch shorter.
The thing about him is that his head is huge (like really big and long) and his arms are really short. I think this can alter how tall he looks at times. Like if he's sitting down, he can look 5'10" and then some. But when he is standing, looking at his limbs, he looks rather short.

A better picture with the two more closely lined up:

Rudd is taller, but if they were to stand straight and back-to-back, I'm guessing the difference wouldn't be more than half-an-inch. I'm guessing Carell is a flat 5'8" and Rudd closer to 5'8.5". Neither is a full 5'9".

@Adam
Carells footwear and proportions look a tad suspicious, either way, can't use the picture for much.

@Adam, that picture actually doesn't show that. They are too far apart, and Steve is standing quite a bit out front. There has to be a better picture.

I've seen him in person and he's closer to a strong 5'8" than 5'10", although I do admit he can seem taller on-screen.

With a 6'2.5" Koechner, Adam McKay who I see listed at 6'3" and 6'4" and a 6'3" Will Ferrell:

Man, that's a tall cast.
Rob, who is taller, Rudd or Steve Carell?

I still hold that neither Carell nor Rudd are a full 5'9".

great actor and I love the type of characters he plays but I just can't see him as 5 foot 9. Was watching 'This is 40' the other day and the majority of the women in that film seem to tower him as well as the men. Also he has such a slight build and tiny limbs. I'd go with 5'8 (with shoes on) for Paul.
However, having said that, if you look at the scenes with him and Chris O'Dowd in there isn't as much difference as there should be between them - I'd imagine Paul wore lifts for those.

I'd say 5'9" is a fair estimate. Look at this scene from Night at the Museum and let me know what you think.Click Here He looks a tiny bit taller than Stiller who's 5'6". But, I'm accounting for an extra inch on stiller since they want to make him look more average sized.

Looks a lot shorter than 6'0 Jane Lynch in 40 Year Old Virgin, perhaps an entire head. Same with Rick Ross and Diddy, I'm guessing he's 5'7-5'8

Legit 5'9", he's the same height as his fellow actor and co-star Steve Carell if you guys look more closely

Met him in New York- stood right next to him. I'm 5'9" bare foot. He was pretty close to my height. Possibly a half an inch shorter, or half an inch taller, because of foot ware. But still, pretty close.

He could be a legit 5'7.5"
I'm 5'7.5" and I have people guess my height as 5'9" all the time.

@doc tari I saw him on the daily show as well. He did look slightly taller than Jon. Maybe an inch taller. If Jon Stewart really is 5'6.5" as he's listed on this site that would make Rudd 5'7.5" or 5'8"
