5'7 and a fraction said on 28/Feb/23
I knew he was short, but never guessed him THIS short. Would've thought maybe around 5'6 like George Lucas.

Peter has the face of a guy of around 5ft8 or 9.
There are loads of extras in Peter's 'Lord of the Rings' trilogy, with many opportunities to have a good look at Peter's directing - and his height, of course. He laughs a lot and always looks as though he's enjoying himself!
5ft4.75. π₯πππ½οΈπ¬

ππππ Happy Birthday Peter! ππππ
Wishing Peter Jackson a superb 58th Birthday! Remembered most for his LOTR and Hobbit movies, he also excelled directing the award-winning 'Heavenly Creatures' and his own version of 'King Kong'.

Same height as Michael j.Fox.

He doesn't look over 164cm to me. I'll say 5'4.5 closer than 5'4.75".

at 5'4.5" hes short , but he looks so good .
Sandy Cowell said on 17/Feb/17
In any of his brilliant Tolkien offerings, there are loads of extras and Peter can be seen on these extras frequently. Yes, he does look short and it is my opinion that he would have made a better dwarf than a hobbit because of his shape!
I also enjoyed his films 'Heavenly Creatures', 'King Kong' and 'The Lovely Bones'.
I think he just tops 5ft4!

Boy I'm astonished. I thought this guy was much taller.

Didn't Jackson have a 5'5" or 5'6" listing before?...there's no question he looks really short, even next to his actors playing hobbits.

I thought he would be tall, new new he was 5'4 1/2.

Not surprised to him listed this low. Benedict Cumberbatch towered over him at The Hobbit premiere.

Wood is probably 5'5.25 and Peter is as listed (5'4.75), so they are about a half-inch apart. Wood is closer to the camera in that shot, if you compare both of them to 5'8 Andy Serkis you'll see what I mean.

Looks 1.5-2" shorter than 5'6.5" Elijah Wood:

Though they are listed of the same height at that site. :)

There is a publicity photo where he directs 6'5" Christopher Lee in Lord of the Rings, and barely reaches to his chest. He looks like a real hobbit next to Lee.

guyfrommars said on 28/Jun/09
Jackson literally looked like a Hobbit when directing Christopher Lee in Lord of the Rings.

hey rob: I am from Peru, and I don't really understand why are you so freaky out about celebrity height. I found this page by accident. I was looking James Blunt profile. I saw this page I found a comment where you say "the closer this guy is next other men, the shorter he is" or something similar. If you considerer that, you are short too (if we talk about your logic) I think you have a problem really.

when he first came on scene there weren't many pics, but then the more pics I seen the more I thought he was near 5ft 7 than what I might have originally thought - 5ft 8.
Josephine said on 12/Jul/08
Yes he is exactly the same height as Elijah.
Aimie said on 30/May/08
he looked shorter before because she was pretty chunky. But he is the same as Elijah.
antron said on 14/Oct/07
5'5" same as elijah
peter said on 13/Sep/06
I'm 170 .end of story!!
mel said on 12/Feb/06
yes, I don't believe he is this height, he has been described numerous times as "hobbit size", he looks 5.4 and a half at the most.
