I'm an actress who worked with him and almost 5'6. He is definitely no more than 5'8 and he has a very slight frame. He's also super nice!

If you guys have Netflix go to exactly 10:53 seconds into the movie. You will see a shot of both actors at a distance, you can clearly see Dafoe is wearing massive elevator shoes with at least 2" heels. I would say no higher than 5'7" and maybe in the low to high 5'6" range?

When I shot a scene with Willem on the set of The Clearing, standing next to him he was around 5'6". He looks tall cause he has long legs and he's very thin. Very nice guy so was Matt Craven, both down to earth no egos.

He looks taller than he really is because he is very skinny, Dafoe is 5'6.5'' to 5'7'' max.

I met him a few months ago. Lot shorter then what I expected. I'm 5'8.5 out of bed. I was wearing flips and he was wearing boots and I still had a good inch at least over him. I would say 5'6" max. Really nice guy though.

Watch Boondock Saints and it will explain his height as 5'9". He wears shoes with a 2" heel and that doesn't include the inch inside the shoe. He's definitely round 5'6".

Looked 5'7 or there about in Platoon next to similarly sized Charlie Sheen & Johnny Depp, they both had a bit of height on him.
