Is there a way to see which celebrity has the most discussion going on?
bk says on 16/Mar/10
some of these comments are just stupid. if you stand eye to eye with someone or have the same level shoulders, it doesn't mean you're the same height,...people's heads are different shapes and sizes. and as for depp, 5'9" is probably accurate, i doubt he's any less than that. albanian says on 16/Mar/10
I don't understand you,john is 175cm but "john depp is actually only 5'7 "
how tall is he 5'9 or 5'7 GF says on 11/Mar/10
I'm with Mike here! 5 ft 9 1/2 in (177 cm) for Johnny Depp. Lisa Wells says on 11/Mar/10
Johnny DOES not give the illusion of being tall, in fact, he looks smaller than 5' 7", has a small frame and "fine" features-no manly broad shoulders. Brad says on 9/Mar/10
Strong 5' 8", wears customs. Mike says on 9/Mar/10
I stood about a foot away from Depp after his Q & A on inside the actor's studio a while back. I'm 59.25-5'9.5 during the day and we were dead on eye level, his shoes seemed normal as did mine, so I would say between 5'9 - 5'9.5 would be about right maybe 176cm would be a good listing. P.s. he is a lot broader shouldered in person. GirlBadger says on 8/Mar/10
I believe he's 5'9.
He has that medium build look to him~
The proportions and all that jazz are pretty even and not overly large. Yeah. he's 5'9. Ali020202 says on 7/Mar/10
I knew most people wud say is alot shorter then his listed height, we just want people who are better-looking and more succesful to have flaws and to exaggerate them. 174-175cm i think is about correct. 168/5ft6 is taking it 2 far. kittycat says on 6/Mar/10
My son and I met him, walking our dogs. My son is 6', I am 5'4" and Johnny was taller than me by good inches, but shorter than my son, by a good few too. So, I'd say he's 5'8" or 5'9" - and he looks older in the flesh, but still cute. tiger says on 6/Mar/10
he looks shorter-maybe because he always wears larger costumes...i love him George H. says on 3/Mar/10
I think he may be shorter than 5'9". Last week or so he was on Jonathon Ross' BBC show and even with his hat on he was shorter than Ross, who is around my height, 6'1". deppnot510 says on 2/Mar/10
I'm sure you can google some photos genius. When you find one that shows a 7 inch difference in height let me know. ACG says on 1/Mar/10
Deppnot510: How do you know, did you measure them? GF says on 1/Mar/10
I agree with paul86. Has anyone ever asked Johnny Depp his height in an interview? What did he say? Deppnot510 says on 27/Feb/10
the simplest way to put this is depp is not 7 inches taller than his wife. he is probably 5-6 inches taller at the most. Deppnot510 says on 27/Feb/10
He was not the same height as Theron. She was constantly slouching. In no way, shape, or form is depp 5'10". Andy says on 27/Feb/10
5'7-5'8 makes the most sense.He's wearing some monster shoes in some of the pics and is always trying to conceal them with baggy pants.Even the cheap 'normal'looking elevator shoes advertised on this site can give you an extra 3 inches! Anonymous says on 26/Feb/10
ACG says on 25/Feb/10
Depp is 5'10, nothing under. Barefoot with Charlize he was about the same height, NOT 1.25 inches shorter as NoLifts81 claims. The screencaps were posts on multiple occasions, they were basically eye to eye.
eye to eye doesn't mean a thing. its the top of the head where it counts and theron was taller. Go buy some glasses. paul86 says on 26/Feb/10
He looks an inch shorter than Orlando Bloom, 5'9.5' is more accurate. ACG says on 25/Feb/10

fritz the cat: if there is a lot of people who have met him and say he is 5'7 of course i would believe it because why would that much people lie about that if it is not true . Anonymous says on 24/Feb/10
theron was wearing a dress, so she could have easily been bending her knees in that scene. Nice Guy says on 24/Feb/10
Depp is clearly in the 5,8 area eaisly,and yes he obiviously wears boots with a good sole and lifts,you just never see this guy in flat shoes ever and i have seen thousands of pics of him. Nolifts81 says on 23/Feb/10
Johnny Depp is 5'9". In the barefoot scene with Charlize Theron he was 1.25 shorter than her. Charlize is 178cm Anonymous says on 22/Feb/10
pacino was 5'5.5" peak and depp looks 2.5 inches taller. depp is 5'8" and a boot/lift wearer. Bradi says on 21/Feb/10
Depp is the in the 5'7''-5'8'' area Harrison says on 19/Feb/10
Here's a pick of him and Pacino
Click Here
Depp clearly a good 2.5 - 3 inches taller than Pacino (listed at 5'6"). 5'9 looks pretty dead on. Anonymous says on 17/Feb/10
I was in a kick watching 21 Jump Street (on Fancast) - Depp is right at 5'9" imo, definitely no shorter. In the very first episode of the series the plot partially revolves around him being too small to be taken seriously by street thugs; he was an patrolmen but got moved to a high school / youth crime unit. While average height, his build was very thin and he of course was baby-faced.
People were not nearly so height obsessed in the 80s, so I doubt he ever wore lifts then. It was uncommon for teen girls to be much over 5'7" then. Fritz the Cat says on 16/Feb/10
Josh - So you take "other sites" where "other people" say things, instead of seeing pictures for yourself? Shorter than 5'7 sounds ridiculous, with all respect. No way man. Share your sources next time bro. Sounds sketchy... ;) josh says on 15/Feb/10
i have seen a lot of other sites on people that have met him said he was 5'7 or even shorter. Fritz the Cat says on 14/Feb/10
Josh - What do you base that on?
Based on videos and photographs with him surrounded by other 5'8-5'9 celebrities, I'd say he's somewhere in between that, but closer to 5'9. josh says on 12/Feb/10
i don't think johnny deep is 5'9 or even 5'8. 5'7 for him seems more accurate. miser says on 11/Feb/10
"What's up with all the over estimators on his site?"
As for the "commentators", about 99% of the male audience are psychologically-tortured-midgets-under-estimators. The female audience is constituted of tall-wannabee women who find a role model in over-estimated actresses. miser says on 11/Feb/10
"Miser you seem delusional. I just can not see how someone with arms proportionate like that could be 5'11''."
Howell is listed at 5'11". Depp is about 5'9".5.
"What's up with all the over estimators on his site?"
Almost every single male actor who is considered good-looking is under-estimated in this website (Tom Cruise included). Almost every single woman who is considered somewhat tall is over-estimated in this website, often ridiculously (by 2+ inches). soahc says on 11/Feb/10
Miser you seem delusional. I just can not see how someone with arms proportionate like that could be 5'11''. What's up with all the over estimators on his site? Look at the pics! Depp is a midget. Same height as Cruise. miser says on 8/Feb/10

I think Johnny has a little advantage in shoes,too. SomeDude says on 3/Feb/10
ACG, true ! That 5'9.5" guy totally towers over Johnny, LOL ;) Palatable says on 3/Feb/10
Deep looks really small built perhaps a little less than 5.9, what you need in TV/Films is a simetric face and/or have something in the looks that sells, depending on the country, culture and times, back in the 70s a more `arian` america demanded more `italian` guys like Stallone, Pacino or De Niro , now after 30+ years of inmigration urban america has changed the paradigm a little bit towards the `fair features`. Of course this changes a lot according to geography, despite the global world we live in, some actors/models sell much better in some places only, the best scenario for the business is to have less to choose, you see this in european Soccer, this decade the `hot` guy is Cristiano Ronaldo, the past one was Beckham, more merchandising publicity etc coming off them.
Back to the film industry , height in front of a camera is something secondary , many hot women were really short like Bo Dereck or Sharon Tate , they were like 1,50-55mt , the same goes for men soahc says on 2/Feb/10

He's my height, a shade above 5'7. With the right shoes it is easy to pull off 5'10 runt says on 30/Jan/10
He looked short in 21 jump street because he was short and there was no need to make him look tall because he was playing an adult narc who looked like a teenager. He was 2 month's shy of his 24th birthday when the pilot to 21 jump street aired. Growth is unlikely

I never thought of Depp as a lift wearer, but look at his footwear at 3 recent events. Click Here Click Here Click Here
Definitely elevators in the first picture which is why he wasn't much shorter than Sean Connery who is still atleast 6'1". 5'9.5" barefoot for Depp and apparently he's started wearing lifts. paul says on 28/Jan/10
this man is the most camaleon person ever he can look fairly tall next to really tall guys yet he doesnot seem to be the ultimate big guy, in my opinion he can go from 5"8 to 5"10 just like than hes is just incredible am a "gigantic" jejej fan of this guy who is totally fit one way or another Jim says on 27/Jan/10
Depp is 5'7". No taller. In Hollywood, that makes him relatively tall. As a US male, he is short. The average height of a United States male is now 5'10". Many actors in the US are below average in height. I can't speak for Europe or other regions. But here, short men are the rule in Hollywood for movie making and TV shows. Jackson says on 22/Jan/10
His heels were much bigger in Pirates! Daniel says on 19/Jan/10
Indeed Johnny Depp looked tallish in Public Enemies. Devito says on 19/Jan/10
Click Here
close to 2 inch heels there, maybe 1.5-1.8 inch heels. And if he really was 5'10, with those shoes on he would come across as relatively tall in Public Enemies, and he would of been the same height as Bale, and I doubt they put Bale in lifts because he is already tall and the other leading man is shorter. Based on that picture, and the fact he looks just average height in Public Enemies, I'm going to estimate in the 5'8.5 range, and thats being generous tbh. Anonymous says on 19/Jan/10
barefoot scene in astronauts wife, theron and depp are same height George H. says on 18/Jan/10
@Bogie: to be honest, you shouldn't put too much trust in Glenn's pics when you consider that there's about 8 or 9 inches between Dustin Hoffman and Warren Beatty in real life, yet in their pics with Glenn Hoffman was perhaps an inch or two shorter and Beatty an inch or two taller than him. So where were the other 4 or 5 inches? righto says on 18/Jan/10
5'9 guy, hes an average height dude, whats it matter. Hes not 5'7, but in 21 from jump street he looked really short, but i suppose that is due to his age and his build at the time. Hes defo in the 5'9 range, maybe an cm under or over, could go either way. Bogie says on 16/Jan/10
Are you blind Aratirion, no way was Johnny Depp more than 2 inches taller than Glenn. The height difference was noticeable but it didn't stand out. From my perspective, you're a fan of JD who can't accept the fact that he's a bit under average. Aratirion says on 16/Jan/10
No that's not completely true. Glenn kept saying Depp was in the 5'10 range because he has seen him in person. No matter if Glenn is 5'8 what he claimed or 5'7 what he trully may be nowadays, but he definitely is a great height detective and if you look at the Brasco Pic there are more than 2 inch between them, making Depp at least 5'9. No way he's under 5'9 ... Daniel says on 15/Jan/10

Yeah Johnny is 5.8 and a bit,everyone that has seen him in person has said the same thing hes 5,8.The only ones who keep saying hes 5,9 5,10 are the ones who have wtached his movies they fail to see that he wears 3 plus inch heels with most probaly a lift.
That, and people who are in the 5'6 range and want to be 5'8", so they upgrade Depp, a true 5'8"er. Aleks says on 15/Jan/10

It's strange because lately I saw pictures of Depp and Keith Richards together and Johnny looks even shorter than Keith! Fritz the Cat says on 15/Dec/09
There are some interesting new pictures of J. Depp on Gettyimages together with Sean Connery. Sean's clearly taller, but not by much, and he's listed as 6'2. They even joke in some pictures where Sean bends down to make Depp look taller. The interesting pictures show Depp's shoes, with pretty thick heels, from the outside I think they're 5 or more cms, from within who knows how much more the soles add to his height. The Pete. says on 15/Dec/09
Agreed with Kirk!If you go to a forum like ( Click Here)their is a section where their is galleries of pics with him with other movie stars like shawn penn,iggy pop,bill murray ect,johnny is no more than 5,8 like come on their is a pic of him a iggy pop and iggy pop is a well known 5,7 1/2 man and in this pic they look the same heigth and he basically looks like midget with bill murray. Kirk says on 14/Dec/09
He is 5'8, he looked shorter than Orlando Bloom. Also "Jackson", apparently tall people want to have the ego that their means something (for some compensating reason). I know for sure know that height isn't a automatic look from women. I'm 6'1, so I am considered tall, but I'm pretty sure it's looks, personality or both that women look for. My brother who is 5'7 happens to have many girlfriends and has had some who is as tall as him. Being tall hasn't always worked for me in that direction (even if I'm more athletic). It's people like Zac Efron and others. Fritz the Cat says on 13/Dec/09
Thing is, a lot of tall men end up feeling and looking goofy if they don't hold up their physique and posture. An average height man, can more often get away with an average build and still look solid. Jhnny Depp's right there in that area where muscle really doesn't matter. His face and proportions are right in the line of competition where a taller dude really has to offer something more than height, like an interesting personality or character. Height is nothing but a curse for a lot of dudes. Mickey says on 13/Dec/09
I think the idea is not that height is more important than looks, just that all else equal, taller is better (for most women). A 6'2 brad pitt is more desirable than a 5'10 brad pitt. (for most women). Prickle says on 5/Dec/09
I would add that shoe size has nothing to do with height. My brother, who is 5 feet 10.5 inches tall, wears a size 8 shoe. I am 5 feet 8.75 inches tall, but I wear a size 10 shoe. ? says on 3/Dec/09

Big T says on 27/Nov/09
Jackson, you don't realize the entire reason for Clooney and Depp's status is their face. If they weren't handsome, they wouldn't even have their 'status'.
Exactly right Big T. Clooney and Depp GOT famous for their looks. Women everywhere swooned in 1991 when an unknown named Brad Pitt (who, at 5'10, is a man of average height) appeared in Thelma and Louise. When I was in high school, all the guys that were a hit with the girls were good-looking. Some were tall, others weren't. And yeah, I happen to think Jared is a good-looking dude, but to each their own.
And lel, yeah, carry on all you want bro. Let's assume every name you mentioned was stripped of their money and fame, Chace included... a lot of girls would choose him over the other dudes.
Wait till Brad sees this... he'll vouch. Even at 6'6", he acknowledges women go for the face first and foremost. Unless you're exceptionally short, like 5'4. Then yeah, you might have some trouble. lel says on 1/Dec/09

Shawn and Bradi you are dreamers but i respect youre oppinion,take these average heigth handsome movie stars and strip them of their status and they dont stand a chance against a tall man thats decent looking.Women are attracted to heigth,body proportions,Money,pesonality,yes thats correct personality but its last on the list.To say heigth is the most important factor in attraction would be wrong just in most females not all,it all depends on the female. Ageli says on 27/Nov/09
@Jackson
There is no fake world of hollywood where it comes to who hooks up with who,it is based on many random parameters like in real world(hollywood is not real world!lolwut?)
Truth is a medium height pretty face(or quite pretty face)will say that a chick will prefer him over the other guy who is some inches taller because he is a pretty face
While the some inches over medium height guy with a "medium" face will say that the chick will prefer him because he has to look down to see the pretty face one.
But the reality is that you cant force love because you are a pretty face or tall,sure it gives you the chance for some more one night stands but "love" or sustaining a relationship takes much more than a model look and an nba player height (imagine being both a pretty face tall and rich,oh the possibilities) Shawn says on 26/Nov/09
Agreed with Bradi. Average height guy with exceptionally handsome face (ie: Jared Leto) generally beats out tall guy with average face(John C. Reilly).
Brad can vouch for this. Bradi says on 26/Nov/09

Bradi says on 25/Nov/09
No one said height is an important attribute. Sure, it helps but all of the 2 times winner (Brad Pitt, George Clooney and Johnny Depp) are all below the 5'11''-6' range.

First of all everybody has rob morrow wrong at 5'8/5'8.75.

Yes,"RogG" is right, like i usually say it's all about body proportions and an important factor is the size of the head, i know it sounds really stupid but trust me, there are these kind of little things that make diference in height perception, i know it from my own experience, I'm around 6"00fts(1.82m-1.84m) and 172lbs(78kg) and i have an elegant frame and a small head, that can make me look taller than i am, you can see this same effect on Johnny Depp, Brad Pitt, Justin Timberlake, Sung Kang, Brandon Lee(RIP),etc... Rob G says on 22/Oct/09
Daniel says on 22/Oct/09
Depp is a strange case, as is Ewan McGregor. They both look tallish, but other actors who are close to the same height, like Sean Penn, Tom Cruise, Paul Rudd, etc look like they are way shorter. How is this even possible when they are the same height?
I think body type plays a major role in this. I think Johnny is of a lean type, while I would say f.ex. Penn or Rudd are more stocky. Of course good proportions and posture are also important to be perceived as taller. Also if you are in a good shape it doesn't do you harm either. I say it's a kind of universal thing, the more stocky build you are, the shorter you tend to look. Daniel says on 22/Oct/09
Depp is a strange case, as is Ewan McGregor. They both look tallish, but other actors who are close to the same height, like Sean Penn, Tom Cruise, Paul Rudd, etc look like they are way shorter. How is this even possible when they are the same height? sussan says on 21/Oct/09
5,8 and a bit for depp,i know becuause i have seen him in person more than once,same heigth as me. Joi says on 19/Oct/09
I'm an ex-model who knew J "very well" back in the day. I am just under 5'9 and he was a little taller than me barefoot. Case closed. burby says on 14/Oct/09
Take off his hat and he's 5'8" next to Sheen. GF says on 14/Oct/09
I'd give Johnny approx 5-9.5 morning height and 5-9 (or a little less)at night. The reason he looks taller than 5-10 could be because of footwear, position in the camera in relations of others of known heights or camera angle. The reason he can look shorter than 5-9 is because of the same reason. He can be slouching, at an awkward angle next to others of known heights etc. Nobody ALWAYS looks their height so you have to stop looking at pictures that are not fair and only focus on those that do not offer reasonable doubt. He is 5-9 plus for sure. Like I said, 5-10 isn't much of a stretch and I'd level at 5-9.5. Fritz the Cat says on 13/Oct/09
People taking that scene with Theron seriously need to remember that it's hollywood, and Theron IS wearing a cape to cover her legs and feet most of the time. dave says on 13/Oct/09
Their goes everyone with the Theron theory,their are a number of people that have meet johnny and all have said 5,8.As we know movies and people and angles can be tricky to thier respective heigths,my fatehr is like over to inches taller than me but in home movies we look the same heigth sometimes. Aratirion says on 12/Oct/09
@Bogie; Could you please stop posting that thing all the time and instead give a constructive comment! By the way; Rob G has just given proof that Johnny ain't under 5'9. Would never look that tall next to 5'10 Theron... Dave says on 12/Oct/09
I guess in the charlie sheen johnny Depp pic we cant see footwear advantage,johnny is more like to wear a thick boot kinda shoe then sheen. Bogie says on 11/Oct/09
Aratirion has a bias TELLEM says on 11/Oct/09
they can't explain it because depp is a legit 5'9. Rob G says on 11/Oct/09
Barefoot scene with Theron peole! Everybody forgets that he looked similar in height to her. Until somedy explains why he didn't look under 5'9" next to Theron, I will say he is clearly a 5'9" man. Aratirion says on 11/Oct/09
Couldn't find it. I only know this picture: Click Here Doesn't seem like an inch to me. 5'8 is too low. No way he's under 5'9. Most likely 5'9.5. Just like Charlie I'd say... Dave says on 11/Oct/09
Once again another indication of depp being 5,8,just type in at you tube=johhny depp star,thier is a slide show of johnny depp and charlie sheen,johhny looks a full inch shorter than 5,9 charlie sheen.Once again johnny is 5,8! Shawn says on 9/Oct/09
Depp may be in the background, but he's also got the footwear advantage ;)
5'8.5" for Depp. Dave says on 9/Oct/09
DArius i think youre posting in the wrong section;) DArius says on 9/Oct/09
It thinks it's pretty insane how someone like Tom Cruise who is 5'7. Wich really is not that short. Gets bashed all over Hollywood and by fans how short he is. When Johnny Depp who is a sex icon like many tall Celebs is only a inch taller than tom Cruise at 5'8. I mean common people. go get a ruler and find out how big a inch is. And then lengthen your thumb and index finger to a inch and place that above you head. WOW! Look how much taller that is compared to your height.... oh wait.. You can barely even notice. So tell me how bashing Tom Cruise makes any since. Random Person says on 8/Oct/09
5'9 seems right to me. TELLEM says on 8/Oct/09
depp is in the background martini says on 8/Oct/09
I love this picture

Leo looks 6' and Johnny looks 5'8" Vin says on 7/Oct/09
Okay Daily Vanessa might be just 5,3 on a good day but johnny ain't a full 6 inches taller,i give him a strong 5,8 nothing more. Daily says on 6/Oct/09
@Vin, Vanessa is 5'3 and not 5'1 (Big difference)
Johnny much taller than her when the're both walking on flat shoes.
I think 5'9 is correct voor Depp. Fritz the Cat says on 4/Oct/09
There are so many factors when it comes to judge someones height, that it's almost impossible to be certain unless you've used certain measurement tools. Not only the thickness of the shoes or soles, but what side of the curb you're standing on, was it a 100% flat surface? Probably not, and so on. To me, it doesn't really matter if its one inch higher or lower. I have a hard time seeing Depp as under 5'7, but then again, I could see him as a 5'8. I think men over 5'8 get away by the inch to avoid being labeled, described or thought of as short. Depp could easily be a just a little bit over 5'8 and therefore avoid the short tag that fellow actors under 5'7 often get. Joe says on 3/Oct/09
I met him last year and I'm 5'7. He's a little shorter than me. maybe the same height but he slouches. Felix says on 2/Oct/09
RisingForce - About Donnie Brasco, and that Pacino is wearing the big shoes, you have no idea what you are talking about. Johnny is wearing the cowboy boots, Al is not. Look at the scene after Johnny and Henche have been to the shrink, when they are walking to the car, he is not much taller than her. RisingForce says on 1/Oct/09
Pacino wears lifts which is why Depp didn't tower him. Check out his shoes in Donnie Brasco. kissmit says on 24/Sep/09
I know this has nothing to do with J Depp, but i was wondering why your site has no listings on fashion designers, like Tom Ford and Giorgio Armani. I saw Armani at an airport once where he walked right in front of me. I'm 5'4" and was wearing flats, and Armani appeared to be around 5'6" max. Let's get a page on Armani, shall we? I mean, here is a guy who has had pics taken next to oodles of celebs like that fellow shorty, Wynona Ryder. You gotta get the goods on that dude, Rob. Although I noticed that a lot of his shots are taken when he's seated. I wonder if that is a purposeful stratagem on his part, since he'll always look way shorter than most of his celeb clients if he were standing, rather than sitting next to them. Grezzi says on 23/Sep/09
"He gives the illusion of being really tall" most of those Hollywood actors are really short. Zac says on 23/Sep/09
Oh by the way Depp is not 5,8 like stated on celebrity heigths,that would mean that i am 5,9 and that is just not the case. burby says on 22/Sep/09
Antonio says on 19/May/09
Fritz, that's a good pic of Depp & Pacino. If Johnny stands straight he is very close to 2.5" taller than Al.
If Al is still 5-6, that makes Depp 5-8.5". It is likely that Al is under 5-6.
Yep, Al was/is under 5'6". 5'5.5" Al Pacino plus 2.5 inches equals 5'8" for Johnny Depp. Zac says on 19/Sep/09
Depp once came into my work where i worked as a waiter at roccos,im 5,8 he was exactly the same height as me and we were both wearing trainers. Vin says on 16/Sep/09
Have look at Depp with his partner vanessa which is 5 foot 1,she always wears very low shoes and depp is always wearing chunky soles and he is not much taller then her!its not a sign of a 5,9 man.Johhny is so a very strong 5,8. Rob G says on 15/Sep/09
I'm with Tellem, Depp really didn't look under 5'9" mark in that barefoot scene with Charlize Theron. TELLEM says on 14/Sep/09
depp is a solid 5'9 man. Fritz the Cat says on 9/Sep/09
Next to Leelee Sobieski in Public Enemies he looks a bit shorter than her, and there he's even wearing lifty shoes, so I think 5'9 is about right. miser says on 7/Sep/09
5'9.5 minimum, straightened out. Aleks says on 6/Sep/09
Depp is 5'9" tops. miser says on 6/Sep/09
he looked 5'10 in Nick of Time, Edward Scissor Hands and in other films. Compare that to 5 ft 8.5 in (174 cm) Milo Ventimiglia, for example, that guy never ever looked as tall as depp did@! Dave says on 6/Sep/09
I would like to remind evryone that not judge depps heigth in movies becuase in every movie he is in he has like 3 inch heels on!look at those pics with him with fans at premiers ect to judge his heigth,even then he always is wearing thick sole shoes. James S. says on 6/Sep/09
He looked 5'10 in Sleepy Hollow and Pirates next to Orlando Bloom. Dave says on 31/Aug/09
LOL to GF comment,more like he starts the day as a weak 5,9 and finishes the day as a 5,8 man. GF says on 30/Aug/09
I think the comments were getting very accurate around late-July to early August. He's close to 5-10 morning height, and 5-9 evening height. We can safely avg him in around 176-177 cm barefoot. GF says on 30/Aug/09

Wow, wow, sorry mate but I thought I found the right ones since they were exactly how you described them. If there is one second or another just before or after those pics where everything could be seen then I'm sorry. I just thought i found them. No need to get angry. Anonymous says on 25/Aug/09
that is how arat rolls. the guy has a bias. Anonymous says on 24/Aug/09
you did not find pictures of the scene...those are terrible pics..those stills DO NOT SHOW EVERYTHING THAT HAPPENED.
what I mentioned took place for maybe a second or two...perhaps thats why?
Anyone who actually watches the movie should go to that scene and look up what I said. Aratirion says on 23/Aug/09
I found pictures of the scene. Click Here
You can't see their shoes, the angle is not the best and he seems to be about 4 inches taller. Not really useful. Aratirion says on 22/Aug/09
Ok, thanks, got to look that up, i have the dvd at home... Anonymous says on 21/Aug/09
I dont have the movie anymore (rental) but it was perfect when I saw it. if anyone has this movie, its a scene where depp and lewis get ice cream and stand in front of the car. You see from a perfect angle both standing up head to toe. Aratirion says on 21/Aug/09
@jdiesel86;
probably that's because no one has actually seen this still of him and her in such a perfect angle; I mean i've seen the movie but that's useless without a screenshot of that particular scene ... jdiesel86 says on 20/Aug/09
again, the best evidence is in the movie whats eating gilbert grape. Nobody seems to have anything to say about this.
Johnny depp was in a perfect angle standing right next to julliet lewis. She is listed as 5'6. Not more. He was only maybe 3 inches taller than her. the top of her head came to about his forehead or slightly higher. She was wearing SANDALS. He was wearing BOOTS. T.J. says on 17/Aug/09
If Johnny Depp is 5'9" he's the weakest 5'9" I've ever seen. I met him in Crown Point during the filming of Public Enemies since I live right near there, and I shook his hand. He looked like a weak 5'8" because I'm 5'9" and I was not alot, but somewhat taller than him. Jamie says on 17/Aug/09
Haha, of course he seemed 5'9 in Public Enemies, look at his shoes - Click Here Daniel says on 14/Aug/09
Rob G and Mathew -among many others here- are right. 1.75m minumum, 1.77m maximum for Johnny Daniel says on 14/Aug/09
Depp looked 1.75m - 1.76m in Public Enemies, a movie I just watched last night. Mathew says on 14/Aug/09
He's roughly 5'9", 5'10" is high for him 5'8" is low. Rob G says on 14/Aug/09
5'9" - 5'9.5" is his range, solid 5'9"er, that barefoot picture with Theron says it all, he is max 0,5" shorter then her. dave says on 13/Aug/09
why are you so negative tellem on others opinion,have you thought for a second the man just might be 5,8 and brandon just might be correct. leonari says on 13/Aug/09
Frank2: Have you ever met Johnny Depp??? TELLEM says on 13/Aug/09
Felix says on 12/Aug/09
5'8 he is!
WRONG. durrrr says on 13/Aug/09
i definitely believe 5-9, rarely looks taller and actually looks shorter a good amount of time Aratirion says on 13/Aug/09
@Brandon; You got any source? Felix says on 12/Aug/09
5'8 he is! TELLEM says on 12/Aug/09
and where supposed to believe Brandon? post some actual evidence to back that statement up. Dave says on 12/Aug/09
To reply to Brandons post,im not surprised! Brandon says on 11/Aug/09
He is 5'8 checked out his police records. Guaranteed. TELLEM says on 11/Aug/09
so that means johnny depp is 5'5 then Dave says on 11/Aug/09
Elton john is listed here around the 5,6 mark,if you goggle johhny depp with elton john thier is a pic in images of them together,elton is probaly half a inch taller in that pic not sure what footwear elton john was wearing though. TELLEM says on 10/Aug/09
172? LOL. the man is probably 5'10. sash101 says on 10/Aug/09
In fear and loathing in Los Vegas when he gets pulled over by the Gary busey who is around 5"11. When Depp is standing by the Chev he's wearing flat shoes and yes he is slouching, but his hips aint any higher than mine on a car and Im 5"9. In this shot he is a lot shorter than Tom and granted Tom wouldv been wearing heeled boots he was still obviously taller. Johnny Depp would have to be about the same as me, maybe a fraction taller but not by bloody much! Id put him at 172cm at the most. miser says on 9/Aug/09
Daniel, he ain't sooo far from 175cm... only about an inch. Remember Edward Scissor Hands? Did he look 5'9" in it? No more like 5'10". Of course there isn't any link between "face" and height, lol... but Carajillo is right saying that Depp's face wouldn't be out of place in latin america... that is because Depp has Cherokee ancestry. this guy says on 8/Aug/09
take a look at miser's photos, particularly the one where deep is next to chow yun fat. he has to be 5'10" because chow yun fat is around 6'1" - 6'2" Luke987 says on 8/Aug/09
Carajillo, are you implying face is related to height? Utter poppycock. I myself am 5'7 but look exactly like my grandfather on my mother's side who was 6'3 at his peak. You need a lesson in genetics my friend. kirsty says on 7/Aug/09
i think that johnny's somewhere between 173 and 175 cm , 'cause in many movies and talk show's he seems be just like that . Carajillo says on 6/Aug/09
He is the shortest guy in most films , basically all other guys look taller than him and 5.9 is average and being 5.9 would not give that impression, basically 5.8 or slighly below -5.8 is correct.There are many guys like him -physically speaking face/body- in latin america , they are small build. Google
for the pics with the Oasis guys in the 90s. dave says on 6/Aug/09
Exactly what i am thinking Felix. dave says on 6/Aug/09
Have you ever thought for a second that johhny wears lifts, yes he does not seem like the type who would wear them but who knows. miser says on 5/Aug/09
Daniel, 1.75m is not absurdity... but it is pushing it ALOT... I mean, anyone who has seen this guy in 21 Jump Street, in Edward Scissor hands... knows that he simply ain't that short. But he isn't far away from 1.75m, it's like 3 cm away from that, maximum. miser says on 5/Aug/09
"dave says on 5/Aug/09
Here jerry bruckheimer is listed as 5'8,i have two pics of jerry brukheimer with johhny depp,one pick jerry actually looks half a inch taller than depp and the other pic they look exactly the same height just wish i knew how to post them,so what does this tell us about depp heigth im thinking hes a strong 5'8 at very best that is of course if jerry bruckheimer is legit 5'8."
Blah blah blah, just wishful thinking, really... Johnny Depp slouches alot when he poses for pictures with Sean Penn, Jerry Bruckheimer types. Depending on the angle he may look a lot smaller:

"Daniel says on 4/Aug/09
5'10'' (1.78m) seems a little too high for Johnny. I think 1.75m - 1.76m is the correct range."
Nonsense. In 21 Jump Street he looked a lot more like 5'10" than 5'9". Quite a few people who met him or saw him when younger said on this page that he could pass for 5'11". Now he looks more like 1.77m. Sometimes he looks less than that in pictures. Dave says on 5/Aug/09
For those who want to see Jerry brukheimer with depp just GOGGLE Jerry brukheimer name and then go to images thier you will find a series of pics of depp and brukheimer together,you will be surprised. dave says on 5/Aug/09

Dave says on 4/Aug/09
just curious Rob G what makes you think he is 5'9.25,just curious??,i think its a good estimate though.
Well, I'm actulally guessing here, he never struck me as a legit 5'10" guy, and was easily shoter then 5'10"ish Bloom but still he also didn't look far from Theron's height in their barefoot scene, an she is just shy of 5'10" TELLEM says on 4/Aug/09
i'd agree that he probably is 5'10, 5'9.5 makes sense. |
