John Boyega's Height
5ft 8 ¾ (174.6 cm)
British actor best known for films like Attack the Block, Half of a Yellow Sun and for playing Finn in Star Wars: The Force Awakens. In an interview he mentioned his height: "Adam is way taller than me. I'm only 5-foot-9 and Adam is 6-foot-something, so my reach, my hold has to be pretty strong to take a blow from that dude when it comes to the sabers."

Guys, it is Five-Ten. I reached the average. All these Five-Sevens, Five-Sixes and Eights that I've been hearing about is not true. Five-Ten. I reached the average. And if I straighten up my back, I can even get more. Apart from that, I feel like I'm a good person. So, hopefully my height doesn't stifle anything.

People are obsessed with downgrading decent sized men’s height to 5’8” or lower. He’s 5’9” on the dot. I can’t see him under the curve.
I get it, although in John Boyega's case, he may be more 5'8 1/2. Maybe.

@Rob,
In the few pictures of them I've seen together, John and Daniel Kaluuya look almost identical in height, except that if anything, Daniel comes off as ever-so-slightly taller. However, there current listings are opposite of this. Do your eyes see the same thing I see with these two? I can't see John over 5'8.5". I don't think he's much under this currently listing, but I'd say he's closer to 5'8" than he is to 5'9" as a day average. I would agree anywhere from 5'8.25" to 5'8.5".

He wasn't that much shorter than an aged Harrison Ford, he's more like 5'9" than 5'8". Looked like 2 inches taller than Daisy Ridley and like 6 inches shorter than Adam Driver. This is a good listing for Mr. Boyega.

I always thought I was 5ft 9 but I always measure 176cm out of bed and 175cm 3 hours out of bed and at worst probably 174cm before bed if I've been on my feet upwards to the 5 hour measurement its says from 174.7-174.5cm depending on the day and I have also measured before at 5 hours out of bed prior to being sat down and got 175cm so I'm quite unsure on what to say my height is.

I am pretty positive that he was slightly under Mario Lopez's height when they met and similar footwear on to thus, 5'8-range is probably the right range for him although, i suspect he may be no taller than Rob possibly 0.25-inches shorter. 5'8.75 is likely his earlier morning measurement and 5'9 and above for me is unlikely.

I see 5'9.5 for this guy out of bed, he's honest saying that he's 5'9. He's not that far off to claim it and has more right to be claiming 5'9 than Big Glenn did, who was a strong 5'6 bloke.

Was strange to see Graham Norton try to humiliate Boyega last night making him stand next to 6'3 Gwendoline Christie in heels. Given Norton is identical in height to Boyega, perhaps even shorter, it just screamed Napoleon complex and projection.
5'9 or a little under seems spot on for this guy.

Spot on listing, his latest Instagram picture is him with some avenger actors. 5'7 Tom Holland was next to him and John seemed to have 1.5-1.75 inches on him. It was harder to see at first because of Hollands hairstyle which kinda gave him the extra half inch or so. I think boyega would measure 5'8.5 at night. I'm convinced he's the strongest 5'8 guy out there and I think his 5'9 claim isn't that dishonest.

@Christian
Well during the years i have seen male actors below 5'11 claim anything from 1 to even 3 inches from their true height. Keep in mind 6 feet is the dream height for a short male and if you "kinda" can pull it off on camera, why not lie about it. But i agree, most at 5'9 would claim 5'10 or even 5'11.

I'm thinking the correct listing would probably be a quarter-inch less than the current listing at the most. 5'8.5" max. The JUST below 5'9" seems a bit too high a listing.

5'8.5 seems spot on , he clears 5'8 for sure.

He seems to have easily an inch on Oscar Isaac and over an inch on Mark Hamill. I think that 174cm mark suits him very well, this current listing is probably just slightly high.

Hey Rob, I just saw the new Star Wars movie with him in it and I think he's more 5'8.5 or 5'8.25. What are your thoughts of his height in the movie?
Editor Rob

The stormtrooper design from The Force Awakens leaves a lot of room available in the shoe area. They could of easily put him in lifts.
I doubt he'll be in the costume for long so it wouldn't matter. There was an actor who's 6'0 who has listed himself as a stormtrooper called Phoenix James, i think he might be his double. The gift of stormtroopers is that they have helmets so for the long shots they'll just use his double.

I mean, even if you're going to quibble over something so silly to begin with, it'd still be silly in the context that this movie takes places 30 years after Jedi within the Star Wars universe. Clearly things have changed within the Star Wars universe. lol

Aren't all Stormtroopers supposed to be 5'11?

@Rob,

Come on, now. I think I've given enough evidence that he's closer to 5'8" than he is 5'9".

Editor Rob not sure if that helps the only 5ft 8 argument, I can see him anywhere in 5ft 8-9 range, I will keep an eye on how he looks a bit more.

I weigh 166 and am exactly the same height as this guy but my build is a little smaller than this guys So he must be around 168-170lbs

There is no way he's in the 160-165 range at that height. He is quite a bit chunkier than he can come across, though, I still think he looks a little wide in suits. Anyway, here he is a week ago from his personal instagram:

Actually, it's possible he's actually around that weight...but you'd have to list him significantly shorter. He'd look much thinner than this if he were that weight at nearly 5'9".

John seems to have better posture than Isaac in almost every picture. Straightened up and with the same angles, it seems obvious John is only marginally taller.

He is considerably closer to 5'8" than he is 5'9", though, he definitely sometimes can look taller.

Rob,
He's going to have to be brought down quite a bit, I think. Here he is with a listed 5'8" Tinie Tempah and 5'7.5" Lewis Hamilton:

Maybe all three of them need a reworking, but from this picture while Hamilton has a footwear advantage on all of them, Tinie does not have a footwear advantage over John (and John might even have a very slight footwear advantage if anything).

Editor Rob he can look nearer 5ft 8 flat, although the position he is in is a bit further away. I will see how he looks in lead up to the film.

Can't say I agree with this listing, doesn't look any less than 177cm.
