He's definitely not over five six

I think hes 5'7. This listing has him too short. No way he's under 5'7, atleast not by much, 5'6.75 is the lowest I'd go.

I think he can look taller than 5'6 proportionally, but if you actually look at him in pictures, I think 5'6-5'6.25 is perfect

I wouldn't rule out a ¼ upgrade, but 169 cm or over seems hard to believe

He looks at least 5 ft 9 to me

If he’s 5’6 then 5’6 isn’t that short. I always thought 5’6 looked a lot shorter and he dosent look that short. You can tell he’s short next to taller guys but you’d expect him to look a lot shorter at 5’6.

Just noticed that Nacho's passport in season 4 episode 8 of BCS says 183 cm which is literally 6'0. I find it a bit hilarious how Nacho's dad's passport says 168 cm (5'6-5'6 ¼), considering the actor is clearly one or two inches taller than Michael Mando.

Why did they even do this? It's not like anyone is going to believe that Bob Odenkirk is 190 cm lmao and even worse Rhea 180 cm. This would also make Lalo like 6'5

I think a slight upgrade could be warranted for Michael

168 cm

wow, he's somewhat petite, but he seems so well proportioned I'd have never guessed he was just 1,67. he always looks so good in every scene. Nacho and Vaas, what a badass.

@Rob, is 5’6 1/8 arguable? An upgrade to that rare height seems reasonable for him. I could imagine him being 2 inches on the dot shorter than you.
Editor Rob
Of course there's a chance he might measure over 5ft 6, but the more I saw of him the less likely I thought 5ft 6.5-7 and more towards 5ft 6 flat.

Now that I'm surfing each listing for the Saul actors, if all of these are pretty fair, I don't think I'm guessing any of them right. I'd have thought 5'8 or 5'9 from memory. Looks like maybe it's just that the cast is on the smaller side overall, so all of my guesses are too high. I haven't really seen most of these actors much outside of the show either, to gauge. I don't know if I've ever even seen Michael once anywhere else. Terrific actor. Although, since I know Bob pretty well, I'd think that would've given me a better idea of his co-stars, because I've been seeing him since he was doing Ben Stiller sketches.

Rob, any idea what’s going on in this picture? Click Here Just a weird angle?
Editor Rob
he can actually edge out Aaron there (if photo was straight)....not that he really is that tall, it's clear he's shorter than giancarlo and can look 3 inches less than odenkirk.
Leesheff85 said on 16/Jan/21
Rob maybe if Michael is a flat 5ft 6 then raymond Cruz should be downgraded half an inch to be honest theres not a whole lot of a height gap between him and Winona ryder in alien resurrection
Editor Rob
they can look pretty close I feel, Mando has a frame (and head) I think that can make him look taller than he is.
DOugTheGreat said on 12/Nov/20
Hey Rob, by looking at this picture with Jesse Eisenberg, don’t you think he clearly need a downgrade? : Click Here

There is a swamp scene in the hummingbird project where they have the exact same footwear and you can see the pretty much same 1.75/2inch difference between them. I think he is in the 5’ 5.5 range. Here a picture : Click Here

Great actor, he really look bigger on screen by his presence. (And good footwear/boots)
Editor Rob
he does look 5ft 5-6 range there, his shoe heel looks thinner though.
Blanc said on 13/Aug/20
Makes me feel better that I'm the same height as Nachito
Littlelee5ft6 said on 6/May/20
Yes or maybe raymond cruz has shrunk alittle by 58? I think michael looks a flat five six
Editor Rob
If Cruz has shrunk it would be a small fraction.
Blanc said on 17/Apr/20
Are you sure on him? He looks to have half an inch on Raymond Cruz in Better Call Saul, I don't think you should list them the same
Editor Rob
He could be the more stronger 5ft 6-6.5 range
Panchsfhool said on 18/Mar/20
Thought it was 5"9. Remember was a film showing some id stuff and his character was listed 5"10 or something like that. Personally i dont have problems when short men appearing as average on films plus camera can make everyone look taller
Christian 6'5 3/8" said on 14/Dec/18
@bcsfan

He could be
bcsfan said on 12/Dec/18
Does 155lbs seem about right Rob? He is very lean and pretty muscular as well.
Monkey knees said on 28/Sep/18
5ft 6/6.5 is correct. There was a scene with his driving license in the latest BCS episode with a height listing for his character of 183cm! Laughed out loud. A relatively "average" height cast.
Jojo b cool said on 25/Jan/18
Wow!! See how crazy the camera angle can add hieght. This guy looks a strong 5’8” to me. Good proportions.
Editor Rob
See him at the end of Spider-man, several inches shorter than Michael Keaton.
Johnny said on 4/Sep/17
@Rob his agency lists him at 5ft 9 and 170 pounds. Click Here
Editor Rob
it's a very optimistic figure.
MichaelR said on 16/Aug/17
One of the best 5'6"ers out there. I mean he carries that so confident.
Aza said on 29/May/17
As listed. Should have worn a pair of socks with the tux.
VeryShortRussianDude said on 12/May/17
I saw him in 2012 I thought he looked around 5'6 he also looks it with 5'9 Bob Odenkirk.
Revisionist said on 11/May/17
No wonder most people have the perception that 5'9 is short. At least he didn't claim 5'10.

He's noticeably shorter than an aging Jonathan Banks, who appears to be struggling with even 5'7" flat these days on Better Call Saul. In order to appear consistently shorter than someone, the difference has to be greater than an inch, and it's easy to gauge the difference between these two from the show because there are lots of 4K wide shots of them together (much better than the picture below):

He's far from looking 5'10 maybe 5'7 max with his proportions.
Some Guy said on 7/May/17
He looks 5'10" to be honest..

Keemstar said on 1/May/17
He is best known for playing Vaas in Far Cry 3, I think that should be part of the "best known for.." section as well.

Yup, what a memorable role! Though I'd say his 5'9" listings are "the definition of insanity". :D
Peter 179cm said on 4/May/17
He claims 5'9 because Vaas is supposedly that tall.Maybe the definition of insanity has gotten into him!😉😂Lol joking although on a serious note he does look like he can act as a psychomaniac bad guy.
5'7 15.3 year old boi said on 3/May/17
Wtf, Is he that short, He is listed às 5'9, I Would say he is 5'7"
Shortz said on 3/May/17
How can he claim to be 5'9" when he looks about 5'6"?
Editor Rob
maybe it gets him in the door at more auditions?
Ed said on 2/May/17
Rob, have you thought of adding Raymond Cruz (guy that plays Tuco Salamanca) also? I'd say he's probably 5'6" to 5'7" range.
Editor Rob
he is a possibility.

Andrea said on 1/May/17
I thought 5'5-6 (like 5'5.5 range) was more feasible for Michael but 5'6 is still certainly better than that 5'9 mark he gets listed at on the net...
Editor Rob
to be fair, the mark does come from himself or his talent agent. Either way, 99% of actors know what it on their resume, so they in effect are agreeing for that info to be out there.

Heights are barefeet estimates, derived from quotations, official websites, agency resumes, in person encounters with actors at conventions and pictures/films.

Other vital statistics like weight or shoe size measurements have been sourced from newspapers, books, resumes or social media.
