At Louis , I think Jude can be 5'9 but he really did not claim 5'9 as he said " Sometimes I feel 5'9 and others 6 ft "
"It depends on my mood, really. I'M FIVE NINE, and some days I only feel five nine. But if I'm feeling tall, I say six feet!"

he clearly stated that he's 5'9

look at this photo, it's not best photo but i think it's clear that craig is taller than Jude

now look kenan thompson with allen iverson(178 barefoot measurement)he looks 172-173
Click Here
craig was same height as kenan on snl

downey doesn't wear so big shoes on movie premieres as on Sherlock set

on photos of downey and jude on sherlock premiere , downey is always in sneakers, probably with lifts but that's not even close as bis as this
Click Here
mugshot photo is not good, not best angle and he doesn't look full 5'9, i don't know maybe he was tip toeing


shredder, explain to me how jude can be anything over 174, i give you pretty solid evidence that he's not

5'9.5-5'10. Very close to George Clooney (5'10.75), Brad Pitt (5'11), Edward Norton (5'11), and Leonardo DiCaprio (5'11.5) Anything less than 5'9 is INSANE!!!
Louis said on 20/Oct/12
why would Michael Caine call him short if he always look only couple cm taller than Jude?
no doubt he's lift wearer
Louis said on 20/Oct/12
risingforce

so Downey is always in lifts, but he wasn't when took picture with McDowell LOL
Downey 171-173 just fits your estimate but he really is just 167


how do you explain Jude looks shorter than Daniel craig on photo where both are in sneakers, but on high profile events Jude looks same height or even taller, good proof he is wearing lifts
and there is enough evidence that craig is NO way 178

about his claim 5'9, he says he is 5'9 but depending on his mood he can say 6'

there is photo of him and Ed Westwick and he looks few cm taller with better posture and Westwick is no more than 170

Jude is not big guy, i'm sure, and you can think what you want
Louis said on 20/Oct/12
whoever think that Jude downgrades himself is just ignorant..
Louis said on 20/Oct/12
@the shredder
i'm really interested in your opinion about Jude's height, 184,191,204??
RisingForce said on 18/Oct/12
Since when does Jude Law force his posture? That's the exact opposite of reality. Jude actually slouches a lot, plus I've seen nothing to suggest he's always wearing lifts. It's funny you bring up lifts and then state that Jude is barely shorter than Robert Downey Jr. The irony of the statement is that Downey wears enormous lifts and elevator shoes to the point it's excessive. Downey has literally worn external heels of around 3 inches, actual platform shoes and shoes packed with lifts to the point they look swollen and his foot is pretty much falling out. The fact that Jude is still taller than Downey in that type of footwear when Downey is likely in the 5'7.5"-5'8" range suggests that Jude is over 5'10", possibly 5'11". 170-173 cm for Jude is not even close to realistic.

I can understand the confusion with Jude Law's height to some extent, though. His quote is unclear, but I'm not sure he's seriously claiming 5'9" in the quote. If you read it, he says his height "depends on his mood."
Louis said on 11/Oct/12
in talented Mr. Ripley he looked little bit shorter or same height as Jude Law(I'M 175)
he is 173 MAX
i don't see a chance that Jude downgrades himself, he is alwaay forcing posture, definitely wearing lifts, no way Jude over 175, he is not much taller than Downey Jr.
Jude is more likely 170-173
Ka said on 10/Oct/12
Mackie is closer to 5'11, look at him in flat sneakers w/ 6 ft Bigelow page, wearing 3 in heel, and 174 cm Renner. Damon is, I think, 3 cm under 180 cm Mackie,so 177 cm. His build is making him shorter, but I doubt he's same height as Rob. Min 175 cm
Hullywood said on 10/Oct/12
I really think 5foot10 is to much. A 5foot11 guy is has a really good height, for me tall looking. But Damon doesnt look tall to me, and believe me, i seldom think: oh, this guy isnt tall. I´ve got a bad heightcomplex, a really big problem and all other people looks tall to me, BUT Damon not. And with 5foot10 a Thomas Jane did it to me.

Here is a german actor, i dont like this guy, plays in daily soaps. But his height 1.77m is known since years. Now compare this guy, with the 1cm taller Matt Damon. Damon will lose it.

I see Damon at 1.74-1.76m. And maybe i have a feeling for that, cause thats my own height. I always can compare myself with guys at my height.

But ok, Rob is god here and a like this website, so it doenst matter what i say and think.

Sorry for bad english, i´m working on it. ^^
Hullywood said on 10/Oct/12
Hey Rob,

Michael said here: "In The Bourne Supremacy, the CIA details say he is between 5'7" & 5'9"

pleas tell me, makes it sense, to list a "strong, dangerous agent" at a lower height as the actor of that role?

Why did they list the dangerous Bourne at 5foot7 - 5foot9, when even the friendly Matt Damon ist 5foot10? So Bourne should be tall as Damon, or taller.


Sorry for my bad english.

I´m verry surprised, Matt Damon is not my height (1.76m), cause he looks it to me. But i must say, in Good Will Hunting, he looks an inch taller then Casey Affleck.
Editor Rob
sometimes small details in movie computer screens aren't given that much care.
jtm said on 9/Oct/12
mackie was listed 5'10 in here before and that is more accurate imo. either way i thought mackie was 2 inches taller than damon.
Ka said on 9/Oct/12
Anthony Mackie is 5'11 though, the update is good. And Damon looks 177-178 cm next to Mackie. If anyone got clear shot of Damon wearing elevator, bring it out, stop conjecturing
jtm said on 8/Oct/12
he never really looked 5'10 except with edward norton but norton had terrible posture and damon had a footwear advantage. he could look 5'9 sometimes but that is probably because of the footwear he wears or his posture. he was clearly shorter than anthony mackie who is 5'10.
RisingForce said on 6/Oct/12
I have absolutely no idea where the 5'8" stuff comes from. He really never looks it, and there's very little evidence to suggest he's a lift guy. His height doesn't even look to vary much in videos/movies and photos. He pretty much always looks either in the 5'9" or 5'10" range.
Brad said on 5/Oct/12
Strong 5 feet 8, he's fooled people for years. He's the guy looking up at Clooney & Pitt in each film.
Dmeyer said on 3/Oct/12
Rob are those evening height possible damon 5'9.75 Clooney 5'10.5 Pitt 5'10.75
Dejavu said on 1/Oct/12
I think he is a little above 5'9.
leonari said on 26/Sep/12
I agree with Rising: Damon is a solid 177 cm. 100 % average height with a somehow stocky built that gives a shorter impression.
GP said on 23/Sep/12
I wonder why nobody is mentioning the fact that he was about the same height as Billy Crudup in The Good Shepherd. He is no way 5'10". The most he could be is 5'9", which i even doubt that.
Chameleon said on 22/Sep/12
Damon is about 5'8 he is noway near 5'10
RisingForce said on 22/Sep/12
Yeah, there were 3 pictures from that day where Mel looked taller, but none of them were good for comparing, imo.

But I did think Damon looked a good 2 inches shorter than Bruce Willis in Oceans 12. Click Here
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 19/Sep/12
I think his official height is 5ft9.75(177cm). Roughly 5in shorter than Ben Affleck and 2in taller than Robin Williams in Good Will Hunting.
RisingForce said on 17/Sep/12
I think 5'9.5" is the best guess for Damon. I use to have him at 5'10", but I went by morning height then, which I've stopped doing on this site because it gets too confusing.

I see a good 5 inches here between Damon and Affleck
Click Here
Click Here
Click Here

So if Affleck is 6'2.5" then 5'9.5" seems accurate, though some have thought Affleck was more a flat 6'2". I don't see where the 5'8" stuff comes from for Damon, he'd have to be a constant lift wearer, and there's no evidence to support that. But I'd guess there's more than an inch between Damon and Pitt. Also, I think Clooney is about 5'10.5" and even with his bad posture, he still usually looks taller than Damon, which wouldn't be the case, imo with just a half inch difference.
Michael said on 16/Sep/12
In The Bourne Supremacy, the CIA details say he is between 5'7" & 5'9"

He looks totally 5'8" to be honest.
Harvard? said on 11/Sep/12
I'm assuming Susan S only visited Harvard and didn't attend. I say this as I doubt a Harvard grad would misspell heels. I'm guessing her math isn't too hot either :)
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 11/Sep/12
I think he'd be down to 5ft9.5(177cm) by the end of the day but no lower than that. Morning height? probably just over 5ft10.

I think back to back he'd be roughly 1in shorter than someone like George Clooney or Brad Pitt despite the fact that he could look as much as 2in shorter than both in Oceans 11.
Dmeyer said on 11/Sep/12
To me damon dosnt measure under 5'9.75 in even after a long day do you agree Rob , he wakes 179-179.5 5'10.5-10.75
Editor Rob
he may drop to 177, at times he can look that range
RisingForce said on 9/Sep/12
Some pretty good pictures of Damon and De Niro who I think is about 5'8" as listed here. 5'10" seems quite possible for Damon next to De Niro, although Damon's posture generally seems better, but the the first picture looks to be the best for comparing. Lowest I can see for Damon there considering posture is 5'9.5".

5 foot 10. he was taller by 2 inches then 5 foot 8 jack nicholson in departed.
jtm said on 7/Sep/12
either way damon is not 5'10.
bodwaya said on 6/Sep/12
baldwin has claimed 6 foot in the past his profile even says 6 foot. In bourne unltimatum he was an inch shorter then paddy consideine who is 5 foot 11. Therefore 5 foot 10 is accurate.
jtm said on 6/Sep/12
he was shorter than chris cooper and i thought damon was 3 inches shorter than baldwin and i don't remember him claiming 6'0 before but i think he is 5'11 anyways and if he was wearing lifts damon probably was also wearing lifts.
Voiceless Dental Fricative said on 6/Sep/12
Rob, you've said for a while that Damon is somewhere 5'9-5'10. Don't you think it's reasonable then to put him at 5'9.5, as that's right in the middle of that spectrum?
Editor Rob
until I was more sure of 5ft 9.5 I don't want to change, sometimes if I think 5ft 9.5 or 10 for someone was possible, I might go in between or just leave 5ft 10
bodwaya said on 5/Sep/12
he equal height to 5 foot 10 chris copper . second of all baldwin claimed 6 foot in the past and damon was only 2 inches shorter. Pkus baldwin is know to wear big lifts. Baldwin is 5 foot 10 barefoot.
jtm said on 5/Sep/12
he was 3 inches shorter than alec baldwin. baldwin has claimed 5'11 in the past.
leonari said on 4/Sep/12
Damon is an average guy with a somehow "short" quality to him. You just somehow think he is short. I can't explain it. Very strange. Could be 177 but nothing below. Not even a mm.
Chameleon said on 3/Sep/12
No effing way is he 5'10. he is like 5'8 max.
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 27/Aug/12
Anything between 5"9-5"10 is accurate for Damon.
In Ocean's 11 he's 1.5in shorter than Brad Pitt and George Clooney.
Louis said on 21/Aug/12
On Jude Law page i posted a pic with Daniel Craig and it's obvious that Jude is 173 absolute max, and yet some of you think that Damon is 178
the shredder said on 20/Aug/12
Rob , 5'9 is closer as Thomas Haden Church had 2 " on him in the Zoo movie !
joe joe said on 17/Aug/12
@KN dicaprio is around 182 i think in the vid the seems to be about a 4cm difference betweem himself and Damon so i think a 178 listing isn't wrong. that's if dicaprio is 182. But the video does not look like a 6'1 man next to a 5'10 man in any way shape or form
jtm said on 8/Aug/12
yeah but i doubt dicaprio is even 5'11.
the shredder said on 7/Aug/12
That is not 3 inches and matt is losing posture ... 5'9 !
KN said on 4/Aug/12
Click Here
Watch it please. He can't be 1.78cms unless Dicaprio is around 6ft1.
Any thoughts?
BigT said on 4/Aug/12
With 6'1.5ish Ben Affleck he looks 5'9 or shorter. I think he's 175 cm flat first thing in the morning, and 174 cm rest of the day.
bodwaya said on 3/Aug/12
in informant he was 2 inches shorter then 6 foot scott bakula. So 5 foot 10 is right
KN said on 30/Jul/12
I have just watched the Departed and it seems there is about 6 cms differences with him and Dicaprio. So if Dicaprio is really 180 Matt Damon is sure as hell between 5ft8 and 5ft9 range.
BigT said on 27/Jul/12
If he claims 5´10" he is most likely in the 5´8" range, like Paul Rudd, Steve Carell and Zach Efron.
Dave618 said on 27/Jul/12
If Affleck is about 6'2" then Damon is about 5'8" to 5'9" based on the pictures I've seen of them standing together.
The Bourne Series Fan said on 13/Feb/12
Ok here's something interesting for you guys. I watched The Bourne Supremacy more than 5 times and at some point in the movie the CIA get their hands on Jason Bourne's identity informations and about his height, it says: 5'7" to 5'9". Careful if you want to see this you'll have to pay attention and Pause the movie in order to be able to clearly see this.

Now i DO NOT know if this was Matt Damon's true height back in the day but he looks around 5'8" really.
jtm said on 13/Feb/12
he was shorter than 5'9 guys. that will tell you if he is 5'10 or not.
Silent d said on 24/Jan/12
Who is lisa snowden? Actress? Solid 5 foot 9. It will be interesting if he does a movie with johnny depp. They should be the same height. We'll know who wears lifts.
JohnnyRB said on 23/Jan/12
cant you see that he is tiptoeing :))
dennis said on 22/Jan/12
guys can we explain this photo/ (8th picture down): Click Here .

Matt Damon: 5 ft 10
Lisa Snowdown: 5 ft 10

Lisa is wearing 4inch plus heels there. And theres less than an inch between them. Either matt's wearing lifts.. or lisa isn't 5 ft 10.
Chris said on 21/Jan/12
5'9.5 (176,5 cms) for Damon sounds perfect.
jtm said on 21/Jan/12
didn't he claim 5'11 in the past?
Attila_194cm. said on 20/Jan/12
I thought that he was 5'11(180)...so 178 is possible.
178 said on 15/Jan/12
Classic 5' 9" (175 cm)... not below that!
Silent d said on 12/Jan/12
solid 5 foot 9.
T said on 10/Jan/12
Somewhere between 5'9 and 5'11 and certainly not "real short" or "rather short". The guy is average.
Logan Hedlund said on 9/Jan/12
M. Damon:
5ft9 1/2 (solid) - 5ft 10 1/2
miko said on 9/Jan/12
I've always seen 5'9.5/5'9.75 for Damon.

Anything under 5'9 is a joke.
Silent d said on 8/Jan/12
Maybe but even if the fan is 5 foot 7 than matt damon would at least be 5 foot 9.
Mr-KILLER-SHRIMP said on 8/Jan/12
174cm MAX, possibly even 172cm.
ANDREA[ITA] said on 8/Jan/12
Rob, is 5'9 possible?
Editor Rob
you could probably form an argument from 5ft 9,9.5 or 10 for him I'm sure. I'm not as convinced on the 9 as the near 10 at the moment.
jtm said on 8/Jan/12
maybe because that fan is not 5'8?
Silent d said on 7/Jan/12
Y is everyone ignorin the fan's remark above. The fan said he is a few inches taller than the fan who is 5 foot 8. 176cm.
therealtruth said on 7/Jan/12
ikbob he looked 2 inches shorter in that particular scene, so if dicaprio is 5ft11 he is 5ft9.
nice guy said on 5/Jan/12
classic weak 5'9 strong 5'8 FLAT guy...no need to argue bout that or discuss this....his 5'10 claim is only true in 4-5 cm shoes
Jazmine said on 3/Jan/12
Definatly 5'9-5'10.
Some people LOOK taller than other because of their build. damon has more of an athletic build therefore making him appear shorter than others.
If you took someone short and skinny and someone tall but muscular and photographed them separately, i can guarentee that most would think the skinny guy was taller.
It also depends on the camera angle. not all of us were there qwhen these pics were shot so noone can really say they know his or anybodys height for that matter.
besides, height isn't everything!
Damon has a LOT of talent so who cares what he looks like or how tall he is.....he's VERY talented. :)
Mr-KILLER-SHRIMP said on 3/Jan/12
He's 174cm MAX, I could even see this guy as low as 172, he looked it next to Emily Blunt.
jtm said on 2/Jan/12
he looked 5'8 in the rainmaker.
the real truth said on 2/Jan/12
I think that he is about 5ft9.75/5ft10 in the morning and shrinks to 5ft9 at the end of the day. So list him at 5ft9 please! Most celebs here are an inch off.
2nd truth said on 25/Dec/11
i can spot a 5 foot 10 guy
from 1 mile and damon is not 5 10

see pitt is hard to tell you
cant really put a guess on his
height because he is a ectomorph

but damon is your average joe
with a average body so you can tell
he cant be passed
5 9 and half in the morning
prolly shrinks down to 5 foot 8 75
at the end of the day


no way can he be 5 foot 10

if he were 5 foot 10
with 2 inch shoes
he would be 6 with
a average bulky build

he would look huge kind of like
jame gondolph phinny from sopranoes

but with shoes on he loosk at best 5 foot 10 and half
with shoes
Chameleon said on 24/Dec/11
Wrong, there is no way Damon is over 5'9 if even that, 174cm I can buy.
Bakura said on 23/Dec/11
Exactly Chameleon, Ka is right. Mohr is closer to the camera, your picture proves nothing.
Mr-KILLER-SHRIMP said on 22/Dec/11
174-175cm MAX
Ka said on 22/Dec/11
I don't know, Mr. Mohr has a bit extra hair, is closer to the camera by a bit, and looks the same height as Damon. Everyone's entitled to their opinion, but side by side Damon I bet would be at least same height as Mohr, most likely a little bit taller. 5'9.5 guy rounding up 1/2 in, fair enough
Chameleon said on 21/Dec/11

Whats that? Smaller than 5'9 Jay Mohr in the whole movie? He is 5'8.
Bakura said on 19/Dec/11
5'9 is acceptable, 5'8 is bull.

In we bought a zoo he looks 177cm next to scar jo who is 160cm.

Adeli said on 5/Dec/11
Hey Drew, i would not call 5'9" guy "real short", but in my opinion, he's 5'9". He says he is 5'10", but... for example, go to NHL- players page.. they all add about an inch or so to their height.
drew said on 3/Dec/11
Real short guy. Met him in vegas once with andy garcia
the shredder said on 3/Dec/11
I'd buy 5'9 before 5'8 flat
Adeli said on 3/Dec/11
jtm: I'm 179cm.. which is like 5'10" and some more. We shook hands.. both wearing "summer shoes" = read low heels. He was shorter by just an inch or so. Just wanted to shake his hand cos' i like his acting, and we come from same scandinavian backround.
Ikbob said on 3/Dec/11
Just watch the movie "The Departed" once again. Throughout the whole movie Matt Damon had some really suspicious footware. There is a scene in particular where he is standing in the elevator with Leonardo DiCaprio and even with some thick shoes looks a few inches shorter. If I would say, I think Dicaprio is a solid 6feet tall guy and Matt Damon is around 5'9-5'9.5.
Michelle Martin said on 3/Dec/11
I saw Matt in the store I work at. I'm 5'3.5" and he seemed like he was a half of a foot taller than I was. I would say he is around 5'10"
jtm said on 3/Dec/11
was he measured at 5'9?
Adeli said on 2/Dec/11
Known fact! Matt Damon is 175cm (5'9")..

Thats funny, I remember pics from the past where Blunt in heels owned him, other people can confirm.

174cm I stick with.
Silent d said on 29/Nov/11
He was taller than emily blunt even when she had huge heels on. I'll stick with 5 foot 10 now because the fan above said he was a few inches taller than 5 foot 8. 5 foot 10 is about right.

Josef your claims are outraqeous. Clooney is 179cm, pitt is 180cm and damon is at least 175cm. If clooney was 170, he wouldn't be taller than michelle pfifer and he stands tall next to his girlfriend in high heels who is 180cm or at least 187cm with heels on. In brother's grimm next to 6 foot 1 heath ledger, he looks just 5 foot 10. I saw some other photos in real life with him and heath ledger and he is about 176cm. 176cm.
Chameleon said on 20/Nov/11
Agreed TruebloodFan this guy is 174cm at best.
TruebloodFan said on 19/Nov/11
~5'8.5 guy. standing next to Emily Blunt on the top of that building in her completely flat sandals and Damon in normal shoes being 4cm(at most taller) puts him in the 5'8 range. he isn't 5'7 but he could be 5ft9 in the morning.
dmeyer, you are wrong as usual. 5ft10.5 morning?
wang shihuan said on 18/Nov/11
matt damon-5'8-5'9
Anthony Mackie is 5'10

Dural said on 4/Nov/11
Dural, could you tell me how on earth can you be sure on the height marking of the tool? IMO 5'8 range is a bit too low for Van Damme, look at him next to
Ka says on 3/Nov/11

peak 5'6 Regis, no way is he in the same range as the editor. The question is flat 5'9 or a fraction higher.

-------

Because a folding ruler has a hinge every 20cm. I have 3 at home and they are all identical.

Click Here

Van Damme is 100% between 160cm and 180cm, so it's opened to the 180cm hinge. If he was 177cm he should be closer to the top.

Please watch the episode and tell me why Van Damme reacts as if he was never measured as high as 177cm in his life. He was the one who says 177cm and she repeated it. His mom became suspect and tries to measure him again, but he's running away until he was far enough from the camera.
Chameleon said on 4/Nov/11
Cheers Lara I agree with that.
Lara said on 3/Nov/11
Not sure if this helps, but totally true: I stood next to Matt Damon at a Springsteen concert two years ago at Giants Stadium in NJ. I am 5'8" (barely) and he was almost exactly my height. It shocked me a bit - always thought he was a bit taller than that. And for the record, he's extremely good looking in person. More than on film, even. Anyway, hope this helps. I was looking for info on Clooney's height and somehow found this thread :)

Remember also that Jean Claude Van Damme also screamed 5'8" in his films and he actually measured at 177cm.

----------

Don't tell me you believe that measurement Shaun.
The folding tool his mother tries to measure him with is opened to the 180cm hinge. The top of it is 2cm higher, in other words, it reads 182cm..... Van Damme just wanted to end the rumors he's short.

I think Van Damme could have been 5'9" though.

------------
Dural, could you tell me how on earth can you be sure on the height marking of the tool? IMO 5'8 range is a bit too low for Van Damme, look at him next to peak 5'6 Regis, no way is he in the same range as the editor. The question is flat 5'9 or a fraction higher.

Yes Shaun, Damon, like Van Damme, CAN give impression 5'8ish, but they are 5'9-5'10 range. To me Van Damme is 175-176 cm range, Damon 176-177 cm, but their build made them shorter

That height measurement for van damme was strongly suspect.

Thats he max billed height. Cheadle was not taller then robert downey jnr whose around 5'7 - 5'7.5 and looked often a little shorter.

He's closer to 1.5 inches taller cheadle but don looks nothing over 5'7

Damon 5'8.5
don cheadle 5'7

the perception of actors are taller on stage on screen than they are in reality. matt damon is shorter than clooney is shorter than brad pitt who deads on 5'9.5 but a crowd of fans would't accept the fact in mind , so no way damon came the dote at 5'9. but his between 5'8.25-5'8.5 thats a fact.

I can't see Clooney under 5'10" though. Damon could be 5'9.5" but I almost certainly can't see him under 5'9". His build does scream 5'8" I'll give you that but he is clearly taller than Cheadle by at least an inch. I think 177cm would be a good estimate for Damon actually.

I was measured at 5'9.5 exactly at my last physical, and it was a few hours after I woke up. I'm guessing Damon is around a similar height, he might barely scrape 5'10 after a really good night's sleep, but never gets over 5'9.5 most of the time.

Sorry, i like to revise that to weak 5'8. Gwenyth paltrow is not 5'9 and i don't believe she is 5'8 either as i stated on her page. She doesn't seem to tower robert downey jnr in her 4 inch heels a 5'9 should ie 6'1. RDJ only has 2 inches less then her and he's wearing his beloved sneakers thus, he would have to be 5'11 in footwear for paltrow to be 5'9. And as everybody knows and generally agrees, RDJ is not above 5'8, most likely a tad below it

This is the photo where he looks 5'8.5 MAX by his proportions, although Affleck is a little closer to the camera.

Proportional-wise, yeah, but @ the top of Damon's head is on the eyebrow of Affleck, which is ~4.5 in of difference. A 6'2-6'2.5 Affleck would put Damon at 5'9.5-5'10. Well Affleck is a little bit closer to the camera, but I guess it won't distort things too much. Lifts/elevators? I don't know, their shin & leg lengths look normal to me. Besides, the image is a low shot, so it's hard to tell. But trust me, it's very easy to be fool height with body types. There are many body type proportions, and yes some of them can give the shorter impression of that person (IMO, Damon)

I want to add that 5'8-5'10 male actors can be play MORE roles than their taller peers. If the female lead is cast, and she's 5'1, then a 5'8 lead would be perfect. Also if the male lead was to play a nerdy, or smaller guy, AGAIN it would be easier to cast a larger supporting cast of males above 5'8 than 6'. Lifts and think shoes can ALSO make a 5'8 actor LOOK 6' on a movie set. Overall for a male actor 5'8 can make you versatile enough to be cast with the smaller girls, and (via lifts) cast with the taller guys, and guys. Also it opens up a substantial amount of roles and characters that would normally be tended for smaller/average guys. My guess for Damon is 5'9 and change out of bed, and 5'8.5 at his lowest, a GREAT height for movies.

Alec Baldwin and Christian Bale have never been nor will they ever be Jack Nicholson, Mel Gibson and Don Johnson. It hasn't happened once that a 5ft11-6ft guy has looked better in a movie than a 5ft8-5ft10 guy. Just look at the scene in 'Collateral' when Tom Cruise meets Jason Statham. That's some fine camera work by Michael Mann's crew. Ed Harris is also ideal height for movies. There's a reason those guys are not tall.

He's an inch and a half taller than 5'7" (listed at 5'8" but clearly 5'7") Mark Wahlberg. That puts him at 5'8.5". 5'9" max is Wahlberg is 5'7.5".
Not 5'10" though.
ACG said on 12/Aug/11
James says on 9/Aug/11
Right ACG and is that why he looked around the size of Mark Walberg in the Departed and was a few inches shorter than Adam Baldwin who Frank2 said was not over 5'11.

He's not really that short anyway at 5'8 1/2 he's just not as tall as his 5'10 pals clooney and pitt.

--------

1. Look at the basketball court shots with Marky Mark. Damon is clearly taller than 5'9" min Wahlberg.

2. And if F2 really said that Adam Baldwin wasn't over 5'11.....wow, I don't even know how to respond to that. I guess that makes F2 far more of a nutcase than I had originally imagined. Go to Adam's page and check out the pic of him with Rob and Jenny. He's every bit of the 6'4" he's listed as. Now, if Damon was really only "a few" inches shorter than Baldwin, perhaps even *I'm* listing Damon too low.

I still think Matt is in the 5'10-5'11 range, certainly not under that.


3. Both Brad Pitt and George Clooney are minimum 5'11ers. And Damon appears to not even be a full inch shorter than either of them. In fact, he can look every bit as tall as Pitt in normal-looking shoes.

5'8" believers, go take a hike.
TruebloodFan said on 12/Aug/11
5ft8.5 is hardly short for a male movie star. actually ~5ft9 is perfect for the movie set. Damon is certainly in the 5ft8 range but by all means a superior actor to both Pitt and Clooney. and I'm not talking Bourne and Ocean movies. I'm talking 'Good Will Hunting' and 'The Talented Mr. Ripley'. Clooney is an excellent director though.

Looks 5'9" to me. Saw him on "The Tonight Show," with Jay Leno, and he looked about an inch shorter. Leno looks about 5'10".
James said on 10/Aug/11
Yep Brad is right out of the three he is the short one. Even without his lifts i am sure he might pull of looking taller than 5'8 with his posture etc....
Legend said on 10/Aug/11
Damon is not over 5'9 flat certainly. I peg him to be 5'8.5 max right now.
Brad said on 10/Aug/11
He's 5 feet 8, he never can catch Pitt & Clooney who are 5' 10".
James said on 9/Aug/11
Right ACG and is that why he looked around the size of Mark Walberg in the Departed and was a few inches shorter than Adam Baldwin who Frank2 said was not over 5'11.

He's not really that short anyway at 5'8 1/2 he's just not as tall as his 5'10 pals clooney and pitt.
ACG said on 9/Aug/11
And the 5'8" claims are laughable, needless to say.

He's taller than Wahlberg: Click Here
Dominic said on 8/Aug/11
Not convinced he's a full 5'10 but nothing under 5'9. He had close to 3 inches on Ellen today. Very slight footwear advantage, I think he's 176-177cm.

Matt Damon wishes he was 5'10 like his buddys brad pitt and george clooney.

strange here how damon looks 6ft next too jude law

he must have either borrowed a pair of robert downeys elevators or its a very very dodgy camera angle.

He looks strangely taller than you'd think at times. I mean he looked 5'11" next to Freeman and Eastwood at the premiere. ANy proof he is a lift wearer? I must admit from what I've seen his shoes look normal, unlike Pitt's which are usually sus.

Nah i think he does wear lifts and tries too stand at his tallest. he seems like the type of guy who is self conciouss about his height. he looked 2.5 inches shorter than jude law in 1 photo further down the page.

Matt Damon is slightly under average height for a guy at between 5'8-5'9 like sly and would do anything too look taller than he is. Brad Pitt is average height at a solid 5'10 and would probably want too look 6'1 which is why he wears big lifts.

George Clooney again average height bloke at 5'10 but does not really give a ratts ass about his height lol.

lol at damon looking 5'11. how much is damon paying you shaun?
Antonio said on 6/Aug/11
My apologies everyone. The movie was called "Hereafter."
Chameleon said on 6/Aug/11
Antonio: I cant find a movie called Forever After with Matt Damon... :S
Antonio said on 5/Aug/11
Rob, do you compare Damon,by using your perceived Pitt & Clooney heights?

Did you see "Forever After?" W/o coming down on you, I honestly don't know how you rationalize many celeb heights. I think you are regularly 1" too generous to most. I think all you need to do is meet one of these high level actors to change things. For example, if you were to meet Pitt and came away with 5-10, instead of 5-11, you would than have to subtract an inch from all those you have compared him to in the past. Right?

One other question. How many celebs were downgraded after you found out that Glenn was nearly an inch shorter than what you previously believed?
Editor Rob
only a handful of music names, damon can look five nine up to five ten

Remember mostly every name on this site has stood beside someone else I or mamun may have met
Brad said on 5/Aug/11
Correct Antonio, yes Carter, he gets nailed without the footwear which is Bieber & Stallone height lying destroyers. He wears lifts. He can't get up to Pitt & Clooney which speaks volumes how 5' 10" is lunacy.
adz said on 5/Aug/11
I reckon 177-178.

Just watched him in "Forever After" with Jay Mohr (listed at 5-9 on this site). Jay was an 1"+ taller that Matt.
fuzzblaster said on 4/Aug/11
I think Damon is 5'9 1/2" REASON: Dicaprio is just slightly taller than him.

Rich Hall said on 2/Aug/11
yeah I've revised my opinion about Matt. Scott at 5'5" and Matt at 5'8" makes sense. I used to think he was shorter probably because of 1st impression seeing him next to Big Ben haha
also his body proportions make him look smaller than he really is (big head, short arms, thick torso, waist and lower back) specially standing next to the more ectomorphic Brad and Clooney...
He was hilarious in his last appearance on Leno! what a great story teller :-)
jtm said on 1/Aug/11
he had 3 inches on scott caan.
Carter said on 31/Jul/11
That barefoot picture of him in a bathing suit in the informer movie...someone posted it here last month, I think. Wow. That did it for me. NO WAY does he look 5'10. I now think he's under 5'9.
adz said on 31/Jul/11
@Rich Hall if you truly think Damon is 5ft 6 theres no point changing your mind. Scott Caan is 5ft 5 and Damon has much more than a inch on him. And no Caan is not 5ft 2.

jude law has claimed 5'9" before.
