Dombnall plays an excellent Alan A Milne in Goodbye Christopher Robin. It’s a perfectly delightful film, which depicts that the child, Christopher, did suffer as a result of being typecast.
I noticed how tall Dombnall was when he stood with the actresses Margot Robbie and Kelly McDonald. Alan Milne seemed quite a strict father and unpleasantly serious.
6ft1.

6'1" looks right.
It's strange. Brendan Gleeson is known for being rather portly. Yet his sons are skinny.

always look legit 6´1 could look just 1 inch under 189 cm adam driver in most photos. His claim is hones. I think he and his dad at peak was identical. 185,5-186

Rob, how much do you think he weighs? He looks pretty thin specially in the film "About Time".
As for his height, he is the perfect example of a legit 6ft1 without no doubt.

I estimate that he’s about 6’0 7/8”, rather than the full 6’1”.

No its not, he is not over 6'1. If Anything he is slightly under it. Relax yourself.

Not a Full 6'1, But close.
CHristie has an inch more shoe than Gleason but has him by 3-1/2" , so Do the Math. CHristie is 6'3 ( TOPS) , SHe has Gleason by 2-1/2, putting him at a respectable 6'0.5"
Of cOurse People seem to think Christie is Taller than 6'3 but Rob's Picture with her disproves that theory. However Gleason, at 6'0.5" I feel is accurate.
Gleason has the least amount of FOotwear of the Cast members there, Benicio has Cowboy Boots and Gwen has a high shoe.
People realize of course this puts Benicio under 6 foot. Gwen Has nearly 4" on Benecio, and her sho advantage is not much more than his. She is 6'3, Gleason is 6'0-1/2", and Del Toro Now is 5'11.5.

6'1.25 absolute minimum for this height. Just a bit shorter than strong 6'2 Adam Driver and he made 5'4 Rachel McAdams look like a child.

Weird, I thought General Hux, KylobRen, and Capatain Phasma were all the same height. It turns out Gwendoline Christie is the tallest, then Adam Driver and then Domhnall Gleeson.

I'd say taller unless Brenda Gleeson and Bill Nighy have shrunk from peak height I'd say he's 6'2 as he's taller than both of them.

Jay, you need your eyes tested, he looks nothing more than 2 cm shorter than Poulter! And compare his height to DiCaprio and Hardy, that's easily 6'1.

Can he look 184? I never see it myself, whenever I see him he looks a strong 6'1. Scroll down and see him inline with Idris Elba, they look comparable, though his posture is better than Gleeson's Click Here

Editor Rob when he stands properly he does look 6ft 1 range, but at times I suppose anybody has potential to look less with looser posture.

Any chance of 6'0.5", Rob? I really can't see him as a full 6'1" next to Poulter.

This really does seem too tall. Not the best angle (he actually may be slightly advantaged in the shot), but here he is directly next to 6'2" Will Poulter:

Looks in the 184 - weak 185 cm range most of the time. 6'0.5 or 6'0.75.

Harrison Ford at 5'11.5? No He is lucky to be 5'11 standing next to Proven 5'10 Billy Dee Williams ( See above Pic). Ford is hardly taller than that Solid 5'10 guy in williams.
Id Say Ford is 5'10.5 nowadays .Gleason is about 6'0 in their pics together.

Ford does have a footwear advantage being in gymshoes, but it's minimal. It's not as if Ford's in boots. So, Not only is 6'1" the most he could be, I'm not sure if he's a full 6'1". His thinness really adds to the impression of height.

In Ex-Machina he looked to be taller than 6'1", I pegged him as a 6'3" guy, it must be because of how skinny he is, it gave the illusion of more height.
