The two Michael’s also costarred in Boardwalk Empire though seldom shared a scene, in The Shape of Water, a Best Picture winner but far from Guillermo del Toros best, you’ll see the tall Michael being not very nice to the short Michael, every story has to have a villain and Shannon plays a lot of them.

I have just ordered a film called 'The Shape of Water', starring Michaels Stuhlbarg and Shannon, together again just like they were in 'Boardwalk Empire'. It's a Guillermo del Toro movie with some very good write-ups, starring one short Michael and one very tall one. Michael Shannon is a strong 6ft3.5, if I remember correctly.

Two guys by the same name, with a huge 10" height difference should make for interesting viewing - and then there will be the added bonus of del Toro's knockout special effects!

Michael Stuhlbarg gets 5ft6.5.

I am going to go with just 5ft6.25 for Michael Stuhlbarg. He's another example of a shorter man who holds lot of power in 'Boardwalk Empire'!

Sometimes I've been mixing him up with Shea Whigham; there've been so many new stars for me to take in and these two do look fairly similar! There IS, however, a noticeable height difference! I've thought before when I've been mixing them up, "I reckoned Nucky Thompson's brother was the same height as him, or thereabouts!"

Then I realise I'm staring at Arnold Rothstein, the shorter of the two! They do look cagily alike!

Definitely 5ft6/6.5, so my shout will be a loud 5ft6.25!
I've also taken into account the comment from Mr R, from 6th December, 2015, who saw him at a Premiere and rated him to be 5ft6!

This guy managed to be in 3 of the Best Picture nominees from last year, so might be worth mentioning in the credits: Call Me By Your Name, The Shape of Water and The Post (which he has the smallest role in of these 3).

Does indeed look like Edward G Robinson. 5'7. Same height and built. Did a good job in Trumbo despite inaccurate potrayal.

I saw him one night at a premiere. For sure 5-6. Nowhere near the 5-8 listed elsewhere.

An upload of Katherine Waterston's height needs to be done, she looks tall AF

Also seems close to 5 inches shorter than Michael Fassbender.

Yeah, having seen him only in A Serious Man (where he didn't have many well-known co-stars) and Boardwalk I thought he might have been 5'7"-5'8" but then when you see him in stills and other films like Blue Jasmine by Cate Blanchett, who is clearly taller, this listing is closer to the mark.

He looked much taller than this on Boardwalk Empire.
Sam said on 20/Nov/15
He's a really good actor, so pathetic yet relatable in Serious Man, then chilling and terrifying while doing very little as Rothstein.
Sam said on 20/Nov/15
Thanks for adding him too, yeah good shout this would probably be dead-even with big G.
