In recent years, Ewan McGregor has become ''height aware'' and often wears thicker heeled shoes or boots around Hayden Christensen at events to appear taller:

He's 5'9.5 as listed, though you can make an argument for Hayden being a little taller than 6'0.

hi, i believe that ewan is 177cm tall aka 5 9.75 just from seeing the latest kenobi show would even seem that he was standing a bit taller in it, obviously theres no official way to know how tall but an image right here:
Click Here shows me that he is id say just over two inches taller than 5 7.5 temeura morrison as jango fett.
5 foot 9.75 im giving him in the morning - barefoot.
Andy Cash said on 28/Jun/22
I actually think he is 5 10. Rather than nearer 5 9. When a woman says he is a tad short, I do question that woman. Men and women have no actual height requirements. Ewan is a great actor and lovely guy. At 5 10 ish he is taller than some of the greatest actors of all time.

Rob Iโm telling you man this listing is seriously downgrading him even looking in the new Kenobi show next to OโShea Jackson who you have at 181 cm him and ewan look the same height in a scene where he walks past ewan so Iโm sorry but Iโm not willing to believe anything less than 5โ10 1/2 for ewan and nothing above 5โ11 3/4 but you have to remember that heโs hunched over a lot because his posture isnโt that great plus next to Hayden he look about an inch and a half shorter and Hayden could easily be 6โ0 1/2 or even 6โ1
Editor Rob
I think we can rule out 5ft 11.75, that's the height of Chris Eccleston and
In Shallow Grave he was shorter.
Keyten DeGraef said on 3/Jun/22
Rob Ewan is taller than 5โ9 and a half. On his net worth site it says he is (1.79m) 5โ10 1/2 and Hayden Christiansenโs says (1.87m) 6โ2 and even if Hayden was only 6โ0 ewan doesnโt look anything more than 1 1/2 inches shorter than him.

Willis Christian Macaraig said on 16/Apr/22
Ewan McGregor kinda looks 174 cm to me and he looks the same height as Alec Guinness since he and Guinness both played Obi-Wan Kenobi in the entire Star Wars saga. So I would say that he is around 5'8 1/2" or 1.74 m.
MaskDeMasque 5'9.5 said on 20/Mar/22
Lol at people saying 5'11. If that were true, he wouldn't be much shorter than Hayden Christensen when there was easy 2.5 inches between them.
Ian Omom said on 6/Mar/22
i agree with some comments that 176 range is a low are of Ewan, i think he's a solid 177 cm guy, weak 5'10 overall

Would be interesting would have the edge between he and Matt Damon, Damon maybe but both can vary in how they appear on screen.
Keyten DeGraef said on 21/Dec/21
Def a 5โ11 guy heโs pretty tall he just slouches heโs a lot and nothing below 5โ10 is valid he is the same height as Harrison Ford who is a legit 5โ11
Keyten said on 12/Oct/21
He is 180.5 cm tall or 5'11 when he stands up straight remember he slouches a lot making him look shorter but compare him to jimmy fallon and when he stands up straight they are very similar height and fallon is about 182 cm give him a back brace and he'd be a tall person so him claiming 6'0 isn't out of the ordinary considering 5'11 and 6'0 are very close. I'd recommend changing his height to 180.5 cm. not to mention emily blunt is 5'6-7 flat and close to 6'1 in those heels making ewan 5'11 180.5

Hey rob what do you think about his absolute lowest and highest at morning is there any chance of him being measured 5'10 ?

9.25 might be the lowest I'd go and 9.75 the highest...however if we are talking earlier in the day like 8am then he may well be 9.75-10 zone

I would say Ewan might still edge you out, though if you met him, you would probably feel kinda similar.
Miss Sandy Cowell said on 23/Feb/21
How can Ewan sit drinking lager and stuffing his face with Pringles, while his poor old mucker, Christopher Eccleston, has to chop a corpse up, purely for financial gain? The body is that of a prospective flat sharer, but he dies of an overdose. Then the trio discover that he's monied! (Re: The movie 'Shallow Grave').

ZTF0808 said on 26/Dec/20
@Cjcjcj Evaโs husband is nowhere near 5โ8, first of all. And second of all, 5โ8 is just below average and 5โ9 is smack-dab average. Ewan is just slightly up above that, could pass for 5โ10. You put him next to a 6 footer, and heโd look pretty close, so I hope that puts that silly assertion of yours to bed.
Cjcjcj said on 13/Dec/20

If he is really 5-8 or even 5-9 he is a little short though. Not real short but a little:P

๐๐๐๐ Happy Birthday Ewan! ๐๐๐๐
A Very Happy 49th Birthday to Ewan McGregor! Yes, I've seen his film 'Doctor Sleep' now, all apart from the end. I was too tired to have been able to enjoy it properly, so I will see it presently. They go back to the Overlook Hotel...
That hotel really does exist, except it's not called the Overlook. I knew someone, who knew plenty of stars because he worked in TV but was never big-headed about it, and he stayed there. He directed an Elton John video. His name is Peter.
Anyway, have a great Birthday, Ewan!

@T.N.T
I doubt you and your girlfriend saw Ewan McGregor at Edingburgh. First of all, it's absolutely impossible that he is 2.5 inches shorter than the listing that Rob gave him. Second of all, cases of mistaken identity happen quite often, so I really doubt the man you saw was even Ewan McGregor and likely only resembled him to an uncanny degree. Finally, I seriously question how somebody with the wealth and lifestyle of a celebrity could look so "knackered" at 50 years of age. So, no, I don't believe you, and you're not the first person to claim meeting a celebrity and then downgrading them considerably.
Bobby 5ft 10in (178cm) said on 18/Dec/19
I don't see how someone who is almost 10 inches taller than someone can be described as "a little short". That's a towering difference. I thought he looked 5'10 as Obi-Wan Kenobi though. He seemed around 2 inches shorter than Hayden Christensen.

He looks to be about the same height as me and thereโs no way in hell I would claim 6โ considering people think Iโm MUCH shorter than I am. 5โ10.25 morning, 5โ9.5 - 5โ9.75 at night. I canโt get a good grip on what my height is because my posture is awful. Doctors get 5โ9.5 but Iโm self conscious and donโt stand completely erect. Anyways no, 5โ8 and up is not short. Itโs amazing what peopleโs perceptions are. 6โ sounds pretty to say so itโs automatically tall or even average (LOL) to people but then 5โ11 is waaaay off? No the difference is minuscule. Claiming an inch or less taller than you are is perfectly fine.
Zeke said on 20/Sep/19
@Philip S I do it to be a bit shallow of Eva to consider him short, though. Now I know sheโs full of BS if she consider Ewan (who mind you, towers over her) โshortโ.
Philip S said on 18/Sep/19
@Zeke Exactly! I mean every height is great, but 5'9" and beyond isn't "short" in any context. Hell, that's the average height in certain Scandinavian countries. I wouldn't be reticent to claim it which is, I suppose, more the point I was initially trying to make in the first place. Especially for a man as admittedly handsome and talented as Ewan is.
PS - Though I'm not angry at Eva's comments, or her, it is decidedly odd to me that she would think to single out that he is "short," specifically. I've heard people call 5'11" short even, which boggles my mind. I suppose 5'9" and 5'11" aren't enormous, but it seems sort of crazy to specifically feel the need to point them out as "short."
Zeke said on 14/Sep/19
@Philip S Well, when you think about it, the difference between 5โ9 and 6โ is only 3 inches, so anyone who fibs about could totally get away with claiming 6โ since the discrepancy is barely visible (especially in heels or boots). That being said though, I agree with you that people should own up to. Ewan is relatively average in height, so I donโt see why he needs to lie or be ashamed about it either. Heโs not short by any means.
Philip S said on 12/Sep/19
Genuinely, and without condescension, I really don't understand how a man who is 5'9" can really truly think he'll get away with saying he's six foot tall. Like, people WILL look it up, measure you against others, etc. Why bother with the lie? As a man who's himself either a weak 6' or a tall 5'11," I suppose I could mess around with the truth in that regard and evade notice. But 5'9," dude.. Just own up to it or at least go an inch higher at most. Seems a silly, impractical thing to have lied about.
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 6/Sep/19

Where are people getting 5'7" from???? Clearly 5'9" flat at worse. Likely a bit above. I think the listing is fine as is. He may be 176 cm.
Miss Sandy Cowell said on 25/Mar/19
Ewan came over as quite tall next to the cardinals dressed in red in 'Angels and Demons'. What a fantastic film that is - so full of surprises! I would have estimated Ewan as 5ft10.25 in that film.
Hasn't this guy come a long way since his 'Trainspotting' days, not that that film wasn't the ideal platform to launch his career. When I first saw it, with two lads, we laughed and laughed in disbelief that a film could go that far!
Then in 'Angels and Demons', we see a well-spoken 'English' Ewan playing a man of the cloth, and so very well at that!
Is there anything this guy can't do, acting-wise? Bravo to Ewan McGregor -love him!
He can have 5ft9.75, based on the aforementioned movie I saw him in last, where I could compare him to Tom Hanks.

Ewan can look 5'9" up to 5'10". Thats the range he can vary amidst.
Tall Sam said on 19/Aug/18
176-177 cm is a good fit for him but in some films he can seem taller than off screen. Favorable camera angle in Christopher Robbin make him look barely shorter at times with the considerably taller Mark Gatiss.
Rising - 174 cm said on 11/Aug/18
@Gracian: If anything, he should have a quarter inch taken off. How do you see 177 in this photo with Billy Dee?
Click Here That's more than a half inch difference. I'm not sure why you posted this one either:
Click Here You can see Ewan is shorter even though Billy has old man posture and Ewan is wearing motorcycle boots. Don't get me wrong, I appreciate the effort you make to try to support your positions, but some of your own photos suggest Ewan isn't much over 5'9", imo. If he were a weak 5'10" then motorcycle boots should make him at least as tall as a solid 5'10" man like Billy in shoes 1" or less and taller when you consider Billy often hunches.
Lapinux said on 8/Aug/18

Ewan is at a footwear advantage with Billy Dee Williams and both are slouchung a lot in those pics. Not that good for judging height.

Rising - 174 cm said on 17/Jun/18
He certainly doesn't need an upgrade and is more likely 176 cm than 177, imo. 5'9" Grant Heslov is pretty much identical and an aged Billy Dee Williams was noticeably taller. Completely average height so I can't find words remotely adequate to describe the absurdity of Eva Longoria calling him short, but he may have hit 5'10.5" in shoes. I know lies on resumes are nothing new, but putting 6' puts him in Yul Brynner territory.

I thought McGregor looked a good 2.5 inches shorter than Hayden Christensen in the link above?
And at least half an inch shorter than Colin Farrell in a lot of pictures on Google?
5'10 is too much for McGregor imo. I doubt he wears lifts but he does wear thick footwear from time to time. Dont know if he slips in a half incher but who knows.
Jason9009 said on 15/Jun/18
Interesting. I thought he looked clearly at least half an inch shorter than Colin Farrell, who can look sligthly under 5'10 at times.

5ft 9.25 absolute lowest I'd ever argue, 10 absolute highest, I feel anywhere in between that range is possible.

T.N.T. said on 8/Jan/18
Rob, he's not even 5ft7. My g/f and I had seen Ewan in Edinburgh and the guy is small. My 5ft7 g/f was wearing flats and she edged him out a bit. I'm 6ft4 and apparently I towered over him. We almost didn't recognise him because he looked so knackered. He is near 50 years old though so of-course he's ageing. Middle-aged and elderly folk do tend to lose some height.
What is it with these celebs? The tall ones claim shorter heights and the shorter ones (like Ewan) claim greater heights. But see them up close and you get to see the truth.

I also would like to add from my last comment that in the movie The island Ewan Mcgregor looked almost a whole head shorter than 6'1 1/2 Djimon Hounsou. The walking scene shows Ewan looking way up at his eyes while talking. This supports my 5'5 or 5'6 for Ewan McGregor.
Charlie said on 1/Jun/17
Ewan looks 5 inches shorter than Tom Hanks. I blew the photo up and measured his head at eye level to Tom Hanks.Tom Hanks was listed 6'0 years ago since the early 1980s. Today Tom hanks os most likely 5'10.5. Ewan McGregor is anywhere between 5'6 and 5'7. No more than 5'7. He looks tiny next to Tom Hanks and Hanks is most likely 5'10.5.Furthermore his female costar in the movie the Island is about 5'2 and she was almost his height through out the movie. The photo's here you can see the females are te same height as he is. Ewan Mcgregor has got to be within 5'6 and 5'7.
RisingForce said on 23/May/17
176 cm is very possible, but I don't see any taller than that. Certainly if Grant Heslov is 175 then Ewan seems the same, but also I see Colin Farrell as 176.5 cm and I think he seems taller than Ewan even without his boots and big heels.
delancey said on 22/May/17
@RisingForce Those latest photos you posted are quite interesting. However, I still wouldn't go as far as 175 cm/5'9 flat for Ewan. 176/177 cm range seems okay to me.
I'm 175 cm (flat 5'9) in the day and I don't think I'd be as tall as Ewan.
RisingForce said on 18/May/17
Grant Heslov is listed 5'9" here and Ewan is no taller:
Click Here Ewan in 0.6" Converse at a few events looked shorter:
Click Here Click Here I don't know Grant's shoes, but they don't look like much either. They look about the same height here in similar shoes:
Click Here Sometimes one is slightly taller than the other, it can go either way depending on posture, shoes or the angle, but these 2 regularly look almost identical in height. I definitely don't see a half inch and certainly not the full inch. The more I look at Ewan standing next to others, the more I see a well proportioned flat 5'9".
RisingForce said on 7/May/17
No way he's 5'10", except in shoes. 5'6" George Lucas in heeled boots may not even be a full 2" shorter:
Click Here Click Here Ewan at 178 cm would look as tall as an aged Billy Dee Williams rather than at least an inch shorter. Similarly, 5'9" flat guys Jamie Foxx and Jared Leto actually measured up better to Colin Farrell than Ewan did. I agree he can look taller at times, but I see Ewan at 176 cm max.

Looking at the pics with Billy again, I noticed the difference is bigger in the full body shot then the other pic, perhaps it's a matter of camera angles and placement? But I also just realized Ewan has boots on that look at least a fraction thicker than Billy's shoes. I think there's at least an inch difference, but even if I did see Ewan at about 177 cm, if you factor in Ewan's boots, I can't see him above 176 cm compared to a legit 178 cm like Billy.
RisingForce said on 16/Mar/17
2-3 cm taller, imo. I didn't say they looked the same, but Ewan's eyes seem just above Billy's nose and Rob's just below. Now that
Jude Law admitted to 5'10" I think 175-176 cm fits Ewan better as well.
delancey said on 16/Mar/17
@RisingForce Really? Just checked out those pics and then checked out the one with Rob, Ewan looks comfortably taller with Billy compared to Rob's pic with him.
I think those pics prove this listing at 177cm is correct more than anything.
RisingForce said on 15/Mar/17
Really doesn't look over 175 cm to me with 178 cm Billy Dee Williams:
Click Here Click Here He's taller than Rob was with Billy, but not that much. 176 cm is equally likely though.
delancey said on 14/Mar/17
Looked surprisingly shortish on Colbert recently, even with the big boots he was wearing.
Still think he's definitely 5'9 range.
RisingForce said on 25/Feb/17
I actually think he is 5'9" exactly. Pretty average and still ridiculous for Eva Longoria of all people to call him short!
Sandy Cowell said on 19/Feb/17
Ha ha! I got his height right last night while watching 'Shallow Grave'! Ewan has come so far since his 'Trainspotting' days and it isn't an unfounded boast! I think he does behind-the-scenes work now, perhaps in a directing capacity.
I'm very excited about the follow-up to 'Trainspotting' - 'T2' - nice one! I'm going to pounce on a copy when it comes out! I don't know whether I'll have the patience to wait for the price to halve!
And now for something silly! Wasn't Mr McGregor the formidable character from the Beatrix Potter books? The one from whose garden all the bunnies would pinch their vegetable supplies? Yes, I used to love those books and was always on the side of the thieving little bunnies! ๐๐๐๐๐
Gilberg said on 28/Jan/17
Met him when working on a show. He was wearing built up "creepers" but was still an inch or so shorter than I. I'm 5'11.75 morning height, and was wearing converse. He is 5"9.5 dead on.
Mark(5'9.25 said on 11/Jan/17
I wouldn't go low as a mere 5'9", Rob. He is taller than Johnny Depp and isn't towered by Paul Bettany (granted his posture is just junk, but still. I'm usually towered by guys who are 6'4"+ or 6'5".) I don't doubt a good 5'10" in the morning. I measured myself just barely right on 5'10" flat in the morning while McGregor can be a good 178 cm much more so than I in the morning.
*Edit: What I'm saying is that there is a huge chance that McGregor is taller than me despite his loose posture.
Mark(5'9.25 said on 10/Jan/17
Rob, as much as I would measure 177.8/177.9 in the morning and 175.7/175.8 both on a solid floor, I think McgGregor would edge me out even if he isn't standing straight.
Editor Rob
Mark, from all I've seen of McGregor, I think he's got to clear 5ft 9 comfortably, but I could see how at times he looks a mere 5ft 9...I wouldn't dismiss it entirely, but feel he can pull off looking right between 5ft 9 and 10.
CS said on 6/Dec/16
Listing seems right. Never really appeared short to me.
Heylo said on 6/Dec/16
He is the same height as me. To me he never had a short build by himself, looked very average but could look short in movies due to much taller co stars.
I'm from Sweden and must say with honesty that 177cm(4-5cm from average) in Sweden is on the border of too short, but it could have been worse of course, I'm not gonna whine :)
Josh Jeffords said on 19/Nov/16
Why would a near 5 10 guy get called short?
He is under bloom, law and looked short in island next to legit 510 plus bean.
I've heard he's more 5 7.5 but looks close to me 5 8 .5 to weak 5 9.
Good actor but will do anything so tends to get crap roles too.
Giorgi said on 18/Nov/16
Rob, I don't get this. If Julia Roberts is 173 cm and is standing on at least 9 cm heels, shouldn't she look more considerably taller than McGregor with about an inch footwear?
Editor Rob
Giorgi, there are photos out there of Julia in heels looking taller than Ewan.
She is at an age though, where a little fraction loss can go unnoticed by many women in late 40's.

@Johan Yeah and it is pretty pathetic don't you think? I mean calling a man a dwarf when she is very short and he is pretty average for a male (if we exclude northern Europe/Netherlands and the Balkans of course). Petite women must be really insecure with their height so they date usually date standout tall 6'2+ guys.
James B said on 25/Jul/16
Rob perhaps Ewan is not as nice as we thought since he called Boris Johnson the "C" word on twitter.
You wouldn't find Hugh Jackman doing that would you?
Editor Rob
he's entitled to his opinion, but sometimes the choice of words could be better thought out...
Johan said on 31/May/16
She is 5'0" or a little more , Eva is not 5'1" and yes that is very short for a woman. Not a dwarf or anything but its 4-5 inches under average height.
Even with heels that give 5 inches she would still be 5'5" tops and Ewan would stand 5'10.5" so yes he would still tower over her. Small people forget that the taller individual slouches near them and/or tilts their head forward to make eye contact.
Summary- Ewan was being friendly and for that gets called Short guy.
Arch Stanton said on 28/May/16

James C said on 28/Dec/15
Like the ones on top. Talking built wise. He looks as listed though he could 5'9 a lot too. Though in some pictures he seems more 5'10 5'10 1/2. Though comparing him to other actors he actually can seem more 5'9-5'9 1/2 easily

Thought he was shorter...
Cowell88 said on 12/Oct/15
Like I said, he is an inch shorter than 5'10.5" Nicole Kidman in Moulin Rouge. So he must be at least 5'10. Why do people on here underestimate celebrities 5'10 or below yet overestimate 5'11+ celebrities? I've noticed it...

Ewan McGregor height: 5ft 9.75in (177 cm)
Ron said on 27/Apr/15
In the photo with Hanks he looks to be losing at least an inch through posture. 5'9 seems on the money to me, but I wouldn't discount 5'10 if he really straightens. Often times next to Christiensen they looked very close, which I don't think would be the case of he were a flat 5'9, whereas in action sequences when both are in a ready stance? A 5'10 could pull that off. So I think he probably STANDS at around 5'9 but if he stretches could really be 10 or a little over - he always seems to have his shoulders bent in a little and head thrust forward or tilting out to the side accounting for this.
And, likewise I'd also like to add my derision at Longoria's comment, 5'9 is pretty average but easily able to hold its own against "short", 5'10 by comparison, if he can stand that, is nicely above average. Heck, in good boots, with reasonable hair and strong posture 5'10 can look tall, my father is this height and everyone believes he's tall at 6' because of the way he stands and dresses. I think McGregor could pull that off too if he straightened up

Paul177 said on 20/Dec/13
Rob, something seriously doesn't add up with Mo Farah! Have you seen him stood with Gary Lineker and Boris Johnson on separate occasions? I've met both of them and they are 5' 9.5" men. Mo looked very similar in height to both of those two - certainly no less than his common 5' 9" listing!
Either Mo had lifts on those occasions - or Ewan's somehow gaining height in the photo MD posted, because he should be no more than half an inch taller than Farah!
What do you think?
MD said on 20/Dec/13
A 5'7" listing seems most common for Mo, now, but I don't think he's even looking that with Ewan. That's more than 2.5", especially were Ewan to straighten up/unbend his knees in that shot. Anyway, just thought I'd ask.
MD said on 19/Dec/13
Kind of off topic, but how tall does Olympic long-distance runner Mo Farah look with Ewan, here?
Click Here
It's funny, because it was not unusual to see Mo listed as high as 5'9" all over the internet during the Olympics.

Mo might be 5ft 7, I think it's safe to rule out 5ft 9.

Funny as he can also look tallish at times. I mean he looks tall compared to guys like Eli Wallach and short Chinese guys/ Actually looks easily 5'10" next to Wallach. He's one of those men who can both look short and tallish depending on the circumstance.

Guys as skinny as Ewan and at that height can give a shorter impression...But his far from short or shortish in any way. He is a true average guy.
--------------------------------------------------------------------
I am glad you pointed this out. Because many believe that if a person thin, that they automatically look taller.
Not always the case is it. A tall, skinny guy, yes, but a small boned/framed 5'9" guy like Ewan can really look quite small a lot when he's bang on average.
Arch Stanton said on 4/Sep/13
He's a perfect example of a 5'9" guy. Nowhere near 180-2 Roger, you lost your money.. He has quite a small frame. Watching the Ghost Writer and he frequently looks quite short, but at other times looks average. Because he has a small frame and light features he can look shorter than he is I think. He's not a short guy but can look smallish a lot.
Powerhouse said on 3/Sep/13
There is a video of Ewan and Nicole Kidman practicing dance choreography for Moulin Rouge both barefoot. Nicole is a solid inch taller than ewan.
Roger H said on 4/Jul/13
Sounds too small for him. I'd rather bet on 180-182.
cole said on 21/Jun/13
He does have a bad posture, but still I wouldn't say he's taller than listed. He looks 5'9 or less a lot because of the slouching. With Sean Bean, which could be more 5'10.25 than 5'10.5, he looks an inch shorter in similar footwear and similar posture, maybe Bean's is a bit better. 176 or 177 cm for McGregor and 178 or 179 cm for Bean.

@mr sensible
5'6.5" average as the worldwide average height for men, but 5'5" as the girl's worldwide height average? Well, you may not be too far off with the male average height (which is more like 5'7.5"-maybe a hair less, thereabouts), but girl's average worldwide is definitely not 5'5", way too tall. Women's worldwide average is more like 5'2", there are countries in the world (such as the Philippines) where women around 4'10" are very common, while other countries (such as the Netherlands) where women above 5'7" is very common. But in both places, they are still 5 inches shorter than males on average.
Lo sgozzatore said on 11/Feb/13

172 is a joke Oreo. That's Charlie Boorman's range and Ewan is easily 2 inches taller. I'd say spot on as its a height which can not look short at all but can look short next to guys over 6ft and uh 5'0 Hispanic Americans...

mr sensible said on 19/Jan/12
interesting the range of remarks on height, what is short and tall is not really much open to interpretation, the overall average size of a man in the world is aprox 5',6.5" and about 145 lbs., woman 5' 5" 135 lbs, so as one can see that there is huge range in size of both sexes, geography and ethnicity does obviously have some bearing, for instance if Mr McGregor was riding a bus in China he may very well be the tallest person on the bus, but there are plenty of 6'5" 250 pound Chinamen, they have there own basketball league! Being involved in the film industry myself, to all of you unobservant people, 5,9 tends to be toward the taller end of actors, the camera likes people within a few inches of height, working with huge people such as Craig Nelson, Dan Akroyd, Chevy Chase to name a few is actually somewhat probelmatic, although the differences are apreciated for some roles, it is often neccesary to make adjustments for height as actors,(like one of them standing on a platform) (anyone on camera, newsanchors) have to generally work in very close proximity, when shooting scenes people are practically standing on top of each other, it's just the way film works,
space between people is grossly distorted on camera

In Star Wars, he looked way shorter than both Hayden Christensen and Liam Neeson. Even in Deception where he stars alongside Hugh Jackman (who's 6'2'')he does not look to be 5'10''.5'8''to 5'9'' would be my guess.

He looked tall next to craig ferguson and they both were wearing shoes with extra lift but i think ewan had half an inch extra. He looked 181cm on the late late show with craig. 177cm is about right.
Why would a man near 6'2" need to wears shoes with a lift? I'd laugh to high heaven if I found out somebody was wearing a pair of elevator shoes (as I'm sure most would if you take your shoes of in the home!!). Trust me, Ferguson does not wear lifts.

when you are looking for somone speical
you dont look for height

you like someone for who they are
and a midgit like eva even opening her mouth about height should be a crime
ewan is my favorite actor i dont care if he was 5 foot 2 or 5 foot 11
he is amazing he can really act
but my guess is that he is a skinny 5 foot 8 guy
i mean its harder to find this guys height out than brad pitts
see brad pitt is muscular so it is kind of easy to figure pitss height
but ewan is so skinny that you just cant put a height on him

So untrue!!!!! I met Ewan a number of years ago when he was in 'Little Malcolm And His Struggle Against The Eunuchs' playing at Hampstead Theatre. I'm 5'9" and he was at least 5'11 (very similar height & build to my own brother actually). Forget all this 5'9" even 5'8" b@llsh*t!!! He's a really nice guy too by the way....

definitely small like 5'9" or something, looks tiny compared to Liam Neeson in Phantom Menace

I say Ewan is 5'8-5'8.5 pictures of him and sean bean from the island reveals the sean is taller than him, maybe 3 or 4 centimeters and also in some parts of the movie sean who's listed 5'10 does not look as short as mcgregor.

I doubt he is more than 5'9" barefoot, his costar Hayden Christensen had four inches on him. I met Hayden, and he is 6'1" in shoes, probably 6 feet even barefoot.

Stood waiting at Glasgow Airport one time, and Ewan walked past with this wife.
This was in the late 90's.
I'm 6' 1" barefoot and no way is he taller than 5' 9".
he is though very very lean, so with with a thick heeled shoe on it's easy to see why folk could think him taller.
But he looked 5' 9" max to me.

He's 5'8.25 in my opinion.

Yeah 11 and a half stone or 160 pounds would seem about right for Ewan. I'd estimate him at 176cm in his barefeet.

How is 5'10 a little short? Screw her.
Madi said on 24/Mar/11
5'9 seems about right to me...He didn't seem much taller than Robert Carlyle in Trainspotting and from what I've seen he is around 5'8

he looks more like a guy with 5ft9
Mot said on 1/Mar/11
5'9.5 is ok for McGregor, his weight? 160lbs is ok for you?

Same height as Alec Guinness, how appropriate!
Shaun said on 26/Feb/11
Its strange but 5'9" or 5'10" guys like Mcgregor and Daniel Craig at times can look short asses but at other times can look a decent height.
Shaun said on 26/Feb/11
looks about two inches taller than Emily Blunt
5'8 said on 8/Feb/11
Ewan might be a weak 5'9, some tall ladies could look much taller than him, but maybe they claiming to be shorter, so who knows...
Shaun said on 6/Feb/11
176cm would be spot on. He's a tad over 5'9" but nearer 5'9" than 5'10". Bang on average height I think.

Grant Heslov with Ewan Mcgregor pics. Ewan is a bit shorter so if Heslov is 1,75 then Mcgregor is about 1,73/1,74. Honestly is my opinion. Althought Hayden towered him some times in SW. Letยดs say 5,9 at the best (1,75). Average.

Sorry but Ewan is NOT a lift wearer. I've seen him barefoot next to 5'7" Charlie Boorman and he's minimum 5'9".
Agreed. 5ft9. The only movies he was lifted were Star Wars, because of Liam Neeson's height, and he had to be a bit shorter than Christensen...

Take a good look at Ewan and his co-star Cameron Diaz in "A Life Less Ordinary". I say 5'8" tops.
Canopus said on 24/Nov/10
Also, in Moulin Rouge, he's at least 2" shorter than Nicole Kidman, 5'10.5" on here - though she may be 6'. That is with them trying to hiding the height difference.
Canopus said on 24/Nov/10
He was on Ellen Degeneres and I couldn't believe how short he was. Probably 5'8ish, 5'9 at the tallest.

He looks 5'9" flat next to 6'1.5" Pierce Brosnan. Between 4 and 5 inches shorter. Looks 5'9.5" next to 6'1.5" Jim Carrey.
