I'm 5-11 1/2, and I had to go down to 172 [pounds]
I wanted you to see a very large, muscled man. I mean, in the book it says he's the largest man in the LAPD. I called Curtis hanson and said, 'Look, I don't know what you've seen, but it must've been smoke and mirrors, mate, 'cause I ain't that big!' I'm 5-11 1/2 and a bit. In Australia, we call that a Collingwood Six-Footer.

Met him at a party about ten years ago. He’s a massive lift wearer. Charming guy, tells a great story, and he’s a fantastic actor. Anyway, he got pretty tipsy and took his shoes off. He wasn’t particularly tall before. But when those shoes came off he was probably 5’8”1/2, max 5’9”, I wasn’t that shocked because he has classic body proportions for a shorter man.

I would love to see a picture with rob but unfortunately that’s very unlikely especially with the pandemic and I think one of the comments above indicates that he’s indeed a lift wearer. I don’t think he particularly cares about his height but he probably does wear it because it fits the character he plays or to look more professional.

Crowe looked quite a bit taller than Connie Nielsen at events related to the movie they appeared in together, "Gladiator". She is 5'10, according to this site. I don't see him as a guy that would wear lifts, he seems too comfortable in his own skin to do that.
While I don't think he'd measure the full 5'11, I think he has pulled it off quite frequently throughout the years. Therefore, I'll give him 5'10¾.

I stood right next to Russell Crowe in a queue (in the first class cabin on a flight). He was shorter than my 5' 9", I was surprised by his height. I think he was barefoot and I may have had shoes but only a 1" heel and sole. So I think at best, 5' 9" allowing for my possible wearing of a shoe and his possible bare feet. I also worked for the airline so knew exactly who he was, it wasn't mistaken identity.

You notice in Unhinged, Viper, that none of the characters so much as hint that Crowe's character is fat. Which would be kind of unrealistic. There is a homicidal maniac on the loose, warnings are being broadcast over the airwaves to watch out for him, and nobody asks, could you describe him?
Incidentally, Viper, well done in going to a movie theatre during the pandemic. I love the movies, and miss seeing them in theatres. It's just that I'm old and I'm afraid of catching a disease that, at my age, really could kill me.

I have seen Unhinged, Alex, and there is nothing in the movie's plot that required Crowe's character to be fat. There is not even any reference in the movie's dialogue to the character's weight. Therefore, he didn't have to wear a fat suit, or even gain real weight to play the role. He did have to wear a fat suit to play Roger Ailes in The Loudest Voice. That story is legit.
Why am I talking about his weight? Well, because I'm the kind of guy who takes a malicious delight in rich, successful people getting fat. Well, except for Elvis, who was by all accounts a nice man, and whom I wished well.
Actually, I like Crowe as a performer. Very entertaining guy to watch and a terrific actor and excellent as the menacing psycho in Unhinged. He is still magnetic, even if he is obese.

I have now seen Unhinged (which is a pretty good movie) and Crowe has definitely become massively obese- 300 pounds is not out of the question. You can see him in Romper Stomper (a terrific movie, but much too violent and bleak for many people) when he was in his late twenties, and he was muscular and athletic, so he's been robbed by age of great good looks and physical strength.
The sudden onset of obesity in middle age is a little like cancer, in that it is lying in wait within the genetics of some people. Marlon Brando and Elvis Presley both got very fat as they aged, but it is said that they were both gluttonous eaters when they were young. In youth they had a protective immunity to obesity but, at a certain point in their lives, the warranty ran out, and they suddenly got fat. This is probably what has happened to Crowe.

Only seeing your query now, Slim. Honestly L.A Confidential/Gladiator years thought he could look a solid 5ft11. Today still looks 5ft10½ range, even still pulls off near 5ft11 with Ryan Gosling. His claim is quite bizarre. I think there is a strong case for giving him 5ft11 peak...but he may not have lost that much

If he's 5'10 1/2 he would be almost exactly average height. While he rarely comes off as tall in role, he never looks short either and can look on the tall side. He might be 5'10 1/2 today, but he was 5'11 or 5'11 1/2 in his prime. I believe his claim, but don't know if he is aware of morning/evening heights and all that. He's a husky guy with that Maori blood too, so while a rare person with the right proportions could pull off looking tall at under 5'11, most stocky guys couldn't. I'd say him and Oliver Reed had similar heights/builds. It's a nice height, you won't get referred to as the tall guy unless you are still in middle school or surrounded by pgymies but you certainly won't get made fun of for your height (possible exceptions in Holland and the Balkans?) and on dating aps I'm sure 90% of 5'11 guys go ahead and put 6' :D

20 years has changed a lot. 5’11 was considered a big joke in the early 2000s but now for some reason his 5’11 is a lot more acceptable. I guess because he’s more likeable , not as controversial , and lack of evidence of him wearing lifts. I could accept 5’10 peak at the most but personally I think 5’9.5 peak and 5’9 now. Comparing him with 5’11 or 6’ guys like Edward Norton, Christian bale, and Javier bardem confirms that for me.

Actually, Chaos, I googled up "Russell Crowe fat," which yielded a picture of Crowe in the suit. I have a morbid interest in once lithe movie guys who got fat. The champion? Gerard Depardieu. Then of course there are the usual favourites: Marlon Brando, Jack Nicholson and Val Kilmer.
I'll admit that this is a pretty mean-spirited hobby. I remember when Elizabeth Taylor became morbidly obese, and the joy this caused so many people was positively obscene. Well, I'm like that.

Crowe's latest movie is called Unhinged, and in it he plays a man who is whale-size obese. It is claimed that Crowe wore a fat suit in the making of the movie. I suspect (as it is in my nature to be suspicious) that Crowe's apparent size in the movie is actually his real size. I have seen pictures of Crowe in a bathing suit, taken years ago, and that man was fat. It is reasonable to suspect that he has since gained even more weight. And why would it be necessary for the plot of Unhinged that the serial killer that Crowe plays be morbidly obese? So I think the fat suit story is untrue.

All you guessers, especially those deriving your estimate from moving or static Hollywood-produced images: Check out the comment from Kelly on 2 Sep 2019 - the guy was actually standing next to him in close proximity in an elevator, and stated his own height was recently measured at a doctor's office. I would say that info, barring complete fabrication, probably gives him the most credibility in this entire Russell Crowe discussion.

Said in a very recent video he was "just under 6 ft". One of those "most googled questions" videos. He is older now, I can buy 5'11 and 3/4 peak, maybe closer to 5'11 barefoot now. Average guess of 5'10 seems a little too under.

Honestly, if Russell is/was near 5ft11, Martin looks like a big 6ft1er. Certainly looks more believable...6ft flat equals Russell struggling with 5ft10!

His late cousin Martin Crowe looked a legitimate 6ft guy, based on pictures with other cricketers on cricket ground (I have seen pics of Martin Crowe with Imran khan, for instance).

I am not sure if Russell crowe is in 5ft 10 in range, the height difference looks more.

To say that Crowe was close to 5ft 11 just look at him next to someone whom you, Rob, met in person. Here are some photos with Crowe next to Paul Bettana from 2003: Click Here Click Here Click Here Click Here Click Here Click Here Click Here Click Here Click Here Click Here Click Here Click Here Click Here Click Here Click Here Click Here
Even if we assume that Bettany often has a weak posture, Crowe next to him still does not look as short as 179 cm. I think Russell in his prime was at least 5ft 10.75.

@Pov sounds more reasonable as a shoe height. He's an above average guy, i think you have to be 6'0-6'0.5 in shoes to be considered tallish(6'1 in shoes generally tall, 6'2 in shoes solid tall) I can buy 5'10.75 peak for him though

Seeing as he said 181.75cm so accurately, I would take his word for it tbh, in his peak. maybe now he has shrunk a bit to 5'10.5. I would certainly buy a 5'11 prime for him.

I believe he's being honest heightwise. He's not the kind of actor who puts lots of money on his looks. He's more about acting skills and deep voice than anything else, not being in shape often times may contribute to misleading impressions; he's tallish.He looks a solid five eleven next to 6'2 Jackman and in terms of overall size and presence is no less than the taller Jackman. He's big with even bigger presence...

What evidence? Go watch blood oath and proof. If that's 5'11 then that's the shortest 5'11 I have ever seen and again there wouldn't be so much doubt about his height if he was really 5'11. Maybe if he looked 6'0 or taller I could see but he never looks that tall and he has only been reported 5'11ish at his tallest. I would give him 5'9.5-5'9.75 peak and 5'9-5'9.25 now.

I was surprised to see Russell's recent appearance on Stephen Colbert's show. Check out the greeting: Click Here Crowe looked shorter than 5'10.5" Colbert! I don't doubt Crowe was around 5'10.5", but could worsening posture and his weight gain have caused him to shrink now that he's about 55 years old? Like George Clooney, he seems like a guy who peaked at 5'10.5", but now might be 5'10" flat or 5'10.25".

I ran into Russell Crowe in an elevator in the Beverly Hills Hotel about 9 years ago after attending the Paul McCartney concert at the Hollywood Bowl. It was just Me, my wife, Russell, his two little sons (they looked about 2 and 4 at the time), and his bodyguard in the lift. I am 6'1/2" tall as recently measured in bare feet at a physical with my doctor. I can tell you that 5'10" is accurate for Mr. Crowe, maybe 5'10 1/2" as the site suggests. BTW he was cordial and friendly toward us in the elevator. Peace out

He has claimed 181.75 cm, I think that’s when he wakes up in the morning, but that height should come down minimum 2 cm during a normal day, or 2.5-3 cm after a really physically demanding working day so that brings the equation down to 179-180 cm, and that Russel totally is so he ain’t lying his height just relinquishing his morning height 😎

Editor RobThere are times when I think 5ft 10.75-11 might be possible, but other times I think 179 range is more likely...I can certainly understand 5ft 11 estimates, it's what I'd say would be the top-end of what I'd try to estimate him as, probably 5ft 10.5 is near the low end.

I would say a legit 5'10" these days. He appeared taller in Gladiator due to the filming techniques and him being leaner.
It's always being said how much weight he gained for this role and dropped weight for that role and so on.
So, does anyone know his weight for Gladiator? I am guessing 190-200. I know he stated in a interview that he weighed 205.
What do you think Rob? 5'10" and 190 for Gladiator?

Rob, hope you are well... I see mr Crowe very regularly in Woolloomooloo, Sydney... as he lives around there.
He is often in sports sneakers which are well insulated, but last time I got close to him and he appeared (unless he has lifts) 5'11" comfortably.
Funnily enough Jai Courtney was in the same pub and he is probably 184-185cm... not far off myself - very very stocky nowadays though...looked easily 100kg
Was digging through some photos of Russell, and I suppose you always have to question the footwear, but this photo stacks up better with what I saw recently

He looks pretty much like 178-179cm range. Maybe 180cm peak in his younger years.

Yeah, that's gotta cause bone loss for sure, in 2 years I'd give the half inch downgrade.
Btw @richard, are you @richardspain?
TBH crowes just in the 5'10 range, I agreed with big robs listing, but really, Russ McConaughey and Clooney are the same height, not sure who'd be taller by the mm. Yeah so I'd give russ 10.75 or Clooney+McConaughey the 10.5 downgrade.

RichardsPain, 😝Saw guy pearce recently(no bs) who's 178 max and russ is like the similar height as him, so strong 5'10 shouldn't be ruled out.
So basically Russ isn't under 178, may be 179 if he's lucky, and he most certainly isn't 180+, end of the mystery guys.
I agree with big robs listing, it's the truth, or its quarter inch away from it. 👏🏻 👍🏻

He looks classic guy 180cm in screen, but as we know in the real life is other history. Anyway to me he seems a good 179cm next to Jackman who is a solid 186/187 cm in this moments.

He's clearly shorter than bale even when he's closer to the camera and looked close to ray winstone's height. Winstone could have even shrunk to 5'8.5 since he was 57. I will admit that crowe could look 5'10.5. and maybe even 5'11 but that's probably because of lifts, camera angles , and posture. I think he's really 177 cm like brad Pitt.

Yeah, his claim sounds more like a shoe height likely making Crowe 5'10.5" barefoot as listed so he's probably somewhere from 180-181 cm in the morning. Mike, he may look near his claim in the above photo with Jackman, but Crowe looked noticeably shorter at the Australian premiere: Click Here He looks at least 3" shorter than a 6'1.5" Jackman at the Australian premiere and with better posture, so closer to 5'10" yet he looks a solid 181 cm in the above pic. What's more bizarre is 5'8" Ben Foster in cowboy boots looking near Crowe's height: Click Here yet at the same premiere, Crowe looks somewhere around his usual 179 range with 182 cm Christian Bale. At times, he can seem like a pretty big guy around 5'11", but he was shorter than a real 5'11" like Leonardo DiCaprio. It's been a while, but I think he was a bit taller than Guy Pearce in L.A. Confidential, and Guy is a solid 5'10" himself. Rob's listing seems to add up the best, but his height is a bit all over the place. I've never completely bought that old article that mentioned Crowe wore elevator shoes at Jerry Bruckheimer's insistence, but it's not impossible he sports the occasional lift in his shoes to make him look at least a solid 5'11" guy. Though I think Ben Foster might be more a guy to watch with his shoes after seeing him measure up at least as well to Crowe as he did to Jason Statham, who could be 2" shorter than Crowe.

I'm going to be a spoiler and give Crowe the benefit of the doubt, peak height was close to 6'. He edged Oliver Reed in Gladiator by 2 inches and Reed was a solid 5'10", so Crowe was definitely close to 6' during his prime. I do agree he has lost a little but is still close to 5'11" as recent photo with Hugh Jackman shows him around the 5'11" mark, with Jackman a legit 6'2".

I'd never have bought 6'0 for him, maybe fact he tends to play bulked up characters in earlier films made him look shorter so I'd buy into 5'10 maybe a touch over - I sort of see what Aza is saying about Jackman's shoes, the top lace area looks suspiciously high, as though accommodating the foot being lifted artificially higher than normal and he's definitely got a more noticeable heel so the photo with Jackman makes it hard to tell.

I don't think there was much between Crowe and Pearce in the scene where they face-off in the street but Crowe does edge Pearce. I understand Crowe's character in the book is supposed to be a huge guy so I'm sure they filmed him to seem bigger then reality.

Its interesting that you bring up lifts Rampage because I remember hearing a story about Crowe being caught with elevator shoes. He also seems abit insecure about his height in interviews as he brings it up quite often.
The story was : He was at a party and took his shoes off at the pool and apparently he was told to put them back on as it was ruining his image. I always thought he was around 5 ft 10.

hi rob is it possible he has lost height from when he was 182cm to 179 because he said he smoked from a very young age and after his school years smoked 40 cigarettes a day and 60 on bad days. He said this on a letterman show i think and do you think this could've caused height loss.

He does not come across like Hoffman, pacino, cruise etc because he is around minimum 5'10" where as they are around 5'6" to 5'8". 5'10" is not short considering his shoes bring him up to 5'11 to 6'...its obvious with Cruise, Hoffman, Pacino that they are below average height.

@Editor Rob: He looks no more than 8 cm shorter than Jackman, which looks the case in other pics as well. Jackman should surely be downgraded to 187 cm before Crowe gets upgraded to 180 cm. That Crowe was near 180 cm in his prime is quite possible though, and by 50 he looks to have lost a small fraction, perhaps similarly to Clooney. Think Jackman was never over a solid 187 cm, and now by mid/late 40's looks more like a strong 186 - flat/weak 187.

Russell Crowe might have been 5-11 in his prime, he was really fit in his younger years, but he has gotten fat and out of shape, and has lost height, I think he today he is slightly under 5'10". He was off to a good start in films like Gladiator but now he is fat old man, I think my best guess as to his height is that he is 5'9.5", definitely not 5'11", his Man of Steel co-star Henry Cavill just towers over him, Cavill is listed as 6'1", but is really 6'0.5", even so the difference between him and Crowe is very noticeable. The only legit 5'11" actor in Hollywood is Brad Pitt, and interestingly Pitt never claims to be taller than that.

Russell Crowe is no way 6 feet tall, I think he may have been 5-11 in his prime, but my most educated guess is that he is 5-10 or slightly less, but I think 5-10 is about right, standing next to Christian Bale who is 6 foot even, Bale seems to be about 2 inches taller. Also Crowe looks much smaller than Hugh Jackman who is 6-2.

This is Crowe next to 5'10 1/2" listed Andrew Johns- and Johns is not some obscure ex-player, he is one of the best ever. Again, for whatever reason Crowe looks 6 foot around rugby league players...either they're all overlisted by 2 inches or Crowe is a bit taller than listed here.

Actually, Russell generally looks a lot taller than listed when he is with his South Sydney Rabbitohs players. Look at him next to 6'5" Sam Burgess or 5'8 1/2" Issac Luke. He looks more like 6 foot.

No actor that is 5-11 in reality will actually say they are 5-11. I think Crow is about 5-9 because he seems to stand at the same height as Joseph Gordon Levitt, who is 5-9. There are many examples of so called 5-11 actors who are really shorter. George Clooney is one such actor, in Batman and Robin he stood roughly at equal height as 5-9 Chris O'Donnell, and he was 36 at the time.

Editor Rob a small fraction is possible, but to me he looks pretty similar over last 20 years, not enough for me to say 'that guy's lost half an inch easily' or something.
