Hey Rob, do you think James most of the time is closer to 5'10 or 5'11?

Editor RobI went with bang in the middle, because at times I feel he has looked anywhere within the 5ft 10 up to 11 zone.

Perfect person to compare James to is Bryan Cranston in Why Him? They looked neck and neck at times. I still think Bryan held up by half an inch more than Franco. For that reason I give James 5'10 1/4 while Bryan Cranston seemed closer to 5'11. He still holds up pretty well for his age.

He looks slightly shorter than Seth Rogan. Seth is 5'10.5-5'10.75 range so James is 5'10.25-5'10.5 range. I'll settle with 5'10.25 for Franco.

Seth Rogan has an inch on him this puts Franco in 5-10 range. I think Franco is slightly taller than 5-10 maybe 1.79
And Rogan is more of a strong 5-11 maybe 181cm 182cm just under 6ft that's what I think

He's just over 5'10 My tallest height I ever measured myself was 5'10.2 I am usually just under 5'10 but working a strenuous job often can make you lose 1.5 cms easily I seen him in this movie Burn Country and he looked barely 5'10

He's not below 179cm, in my opinion. I see 179-179½cm as more likely than 178½-179cm. He is probably not quite 180cm later in the day, but roughly 179½cm is quite possible. I certainly think the average guess is too low currently.

Rob, how can you make a case for Franco being 5'11? He is obviously a tad shorter than Seth Rogen who you've said isn't over 5'11 and might even drop to 5'10.75

Editor Robas with any celebrity, there is a range you might be able to make a case for...though I give franco 5ft 10.5 as I think the odds are greater he's around that.

Look at his movie Why Him with Bryan Cranston who’s 5’10-5’10.5. His photos with his good friend Seth Rogen who’s a flat 5’11 and his photo with Brad Pitt. You can see the difference with Cranston in every scene. 5’11 is exactly 1.80 cm and 5’10 is exactly 1.78 cm. When you guys say Seth Rogen is 2 cm taller than Franco, you agree that Franco is a 5’10 guy. Brad Pitt constantly wears heels but that huge gap in their photo will explain if you see it. Plus, most of the websites still list him as 5’10. But at the end, it’s really hard to understand that 1-2 cm differences in the photos. It’s a little detail and nobody can estimate it for certain, especially the height of celebrities. You should consider their posture, footwear, camera angles too.

5'11 Seth Rogen is 2cm taller than Franco and how can he be guess at 5'10.75-5'11? People are funny. 5'10.25" is a low for James Franco although i have suspect 5'10 1/8 from a longtime ago.

I saw James Franco last night in the fun take on the apocalypse 'This Is The End'. I realised that he wasn't exactly small when Emma Watson made a guest appearance and looked tiny next to James and Seth Rogan. Until then, I had no idea!
I agree with the above-average 5ft10.5.

Watching The Disaster Artist again, and i understand you should never go with onscreen comparisons etc... But, i never see 5 inches between the Franco brothers!? I know Dave is under 5ft6 but I'm yet to be convinced that James struggles to hit 5ft10 (morning height).

In Disaster Artist he looks 5ft 11. I actually think he is 5ft 10.75, Seth Rogen is 5ft 11 flat, like same height almost, these two are hard to tell. Tommy Wiseau seems to be about 1.5-2 inch shorter with boots.

Others have correctly stated that he looked similar to Bryan Cranston in "Why Him". However, I seem to recall that he had smaller footwear. He could pull off looking 5'10¾-5'11 in that movie, considering footwear. He looked quite a bit shorter than Keegan Michael Key, who is apparently 6'0 (looks closer to 184cm, in my opinion), but Key had more footwear again than Franco.
Franco is hard to figure out. If I had to guess whether is he is more likely to be fractionally closer to 5'11 or 5'10, I'd say the former. 5'10½ is acceptable, though.

5'10½ for Franco seems fair. He can be careless with his posture, which is why he can look closer to 5'10. When standing tall, though, he can pull off 5'11 once in a while.

I went to school with him. With boots he's easily 6'1. I think 5'11 is right at least 5'10. He looks about 185 in person. He's really thick actually which makes him look bigger. I know he looks thin on screen buts he's bulky in the upper body. He may just be working out as I've seen him look fairly slim. I hear Leo is also deceptively tall too. He's definitely taller than 5'9 though.

I think he is the height around 5'10.5 but at 185 he must be working out to build muscle because he looks 170-175 max at 95% of the time.

I'd say Tom Franco is around 5'11½". I'd say with fairly high confidence that he's below 6'.
Yes, I misspoke. When I said 5'11" I meant upper 5'11", between 5'11" and 6 ft.

In the Spider-Man movies, he gave the impression of being like 6'1, but that's to do that he looks a good 3-4 inches taller than Tobey Maguire who is I think is 5'7ish

I met Franco years ago and I remember he was surprisingly a lot shorter than I expected. I'm 5'5", he wasn't much taller than me. It was so much of a shock that his height was the first thing my friend and I commented on after Franco left. 5'11" in his dreams, but it's hard to say how tall. His whole frame was smaller I would have thought too.

@Celebheights 6'1.75
You are not taking into account perspective at all my friend. Franco is a foot closer to the camera hence he appears bigger, and he still looks a couple inches sorter than Brad(James' eye level is at Brad's nose). Now he may be losing a lot in posture, so this picture is garbage in terms of judjing their height. I don't know about Pitt and his lifts, but I'm sure Franco is nearer 5'10 than 5'11 in the afternoon. 5'10-5'10.5 somewhere there.

Have to agree with Charlie as I know for a fact Brad Pitt is 5'9 tops and he's a good 2 inches taller than Franco. My friend was the stuntman and Key Grip for Brad on several films and he's 5.8.5 and looked the exact same height in all the pictures he showed me.A lot of posters on here seem to be plants from production companies, for example, the person who claimed to be Franco's double and was measured with him in bare feet and he was 5'11! Total rubbish!!

He's heavier than he looks. The only way I know this is that it was all in the entertainment news a few years back that he'd sent a half-nude photo to an under-aged girl and he is quite a bit thicker in the waist than he comes across when fully clothed. He's not a skinny guy.

I think Franco is 5'10.25"-5'10.5" and Pitt is 5'10.75"-5'11", and what you are seeing is about a 0.5" difference, exaggerated by external factors.

In Pineapple Express James Franko looks like dwarf next to some actors, perhaps they are 195cm+, yet i think that he looks 174-175cm(5ft8.5-5ft9) range there because of a TERRIBLE POSTURE but if he stay straight, can be strong 177-178cm(5ft10) like Set Rogen (sometimes 2 inches taller because James barefeet in some scenes).
For me its OBVIOUS that Franko is 177 in the midday and Set is 178(where the hell you see strong 5ft11???)

Next to David Oyelowo in rise of the appes he looked 5cm taller. And it makes sense about Franco's height, consider that David is not legit 5-8... So Franco is about 176-177. I also think that hes exactly same height as Orlando Bloom, they look pretty similar in that way to me.

I have a 5'9 friend who's 151 and has a thin-average build. James here is 1-1.5 inches taller than he is so he could be at least 165 lbs. James is also a little stocky so he could be like 175-180 lbs, so 185 lbs isn't impossible.

It's weird, because he was on Saturday Night Live as a surprise guest with Seth Rogan, and they've been looking almost identical in height, lately. It makes me think Rogan is more likely somewhere between 5'10" and 5'11" than a solid 5'11".

He's a 5'10 guy who can look pull off 5'11. His natural build is 160 -165 pounds, so unless he built some major muscle for certain roles, I doubt 185 would be his typical weight.

@NorthernEurope, while I still think it's possible that he could be 5'10", that is not really his personal website (if even he has one).

he looked less than the listed height in "knocked up" compared to Katherine Heigl. I do think he is a bit over 5'10 however. i know this is a height site but I feel compelled to comment on his 185 lbs claim. No chance he is 185 lbs. 5'10.5" and 185 at a low bodyfat is pretty jacked....

He's so cool that you just can't see him as below 5'10. When i see him and think he might be under 5'10, my brain immediately says NO and forbids me to think in these terms. It's a physics thing i think.

A 5'9" or 5'10" (at absolute most) guy trying to claim 5'11".
Also does the 'poofy hair on top' thing to try to look taller. All the classic tricks.

FA, here's the thing - and it's shocking enough that it may surprise some - there is a category and range between short and tall: it's called average. Under no circumstance is James Franco "tiny" as it concerns his height, and definitely not at his current listed height, so it wasn't even close to appropriate a word to describe James.

Wow! He's pretty short. Him and his brother Dave are tiny. Maybe because he's also rather scrawny I always thought he looked taller. But he's basically the same height as me.

Looks 177cm in This is the End next to Danny McBride imo. I would give him 5ft 10 flat. 185 pounds (84KG) though? He's pushing it there, in This is the End he did look to have a fair bit of muscle though he has a slightly broad frame imo. I could buy 185lbs/84kg if he was actually 5ft 11 with his frame and build, id say he's probably 175-180lbs, around 80kg flat. Remember some guys have heavier bone mass, I for one do, people guess me to be lighter than I am quite substantially so the only logical explanation is heavy bones due to my broad frame.
Anyway, James Franco, 177/178cm and 175-180lbs.

IMHO,Franco is a solid 5'11" guy. He has somewhat short legs and a longer torso,small head and thin build. He's a smidge under 6foot and is the same height as Seth Rogen and Jay Baruchel,as he is standing between them in 'This is the End'. Craig Robinson is the tallest at 6'1 so Franco,Rogen,Baruchel,McBride are 5'11" easily

Not even 3 inches between him and Maguire. Franco can be 5'10.25, that may be better than either 5'10 flat or 5'10.5. He is just not the 5'11 he claims.

I stood next to James for the camera during auditions to see if our heights were compatible.. I'm EXACTLY 5'10 1/2 barefooted and he was a tad taller than me.. I noticed the shoes too.. We were wearing similar heels.. His high hair made him seems way taller than me, but the eyes were about 1/2 above mine.. Debate settled: James Franco is 5'11 barefooted.. He tends to slouch in pictures, so he can appear shorter..

solid 179cm is accurate from what ive seen in pics and movies. To tell the truth in the spiderman movies he gives the impression of being tall, like no less than 6foot when he stands alone, but standing next to Tobey Maguire he looked 3-3.5 inches taller, so i would say 179cm is right for franco

in one of the oscars promo anne and james was in sneakers and james was not much taller than anne. maybe 2-3 inches but not more. that puts franco somewhere in the 5ft9 - 5ft10 area. i think he usualy wears lifts on movies and on diffrent ocassions.

He is 5-10 like he lists on his I m d b profile. He seems an open minded, educated guy so he tells the truth.

If he's this height then all female stars are wayyy shorter!!! Anne Hathaway had platforms throughout the whole night, giving her about 10 or more in heels (I should know, I wear shoes like that and the heel is never what you actually get in height grrr) and yet was shorter when she stood next to him in the Oscars. Even with lifts, well then it still didn't makes sense!

Franco might have been 5´10.5" when he was younger. He`s 5´9.5 - 5´10" (176-178cm)now.

I went to UCLA with him and saw him quite often. Super cool guy. I'm not even six feet and I was noticeably taller than him. He was realistically 5'9.

This guy has a tall look to him,though on Freaks and Geeks he was a couple of inches under Jason Segel,who is listed here as 6'4,and about the same height as Seth Rogen(5'11).To be fair,he did have some good inches over Linda Cardellini and Busy Philipps,so overall he's,IMO,a solid 5'11 guy.

i thought he was taller, but after watching 30 rock, standing next to tina fey who is 5'4.5 i think he's 5'9~5'10.

from the pick posted the top of Franco's brow is perfectly in line with the tip of Tom Hanks nose --this suggests at least a 4-5inch decrease in Franco's height from 6 feet. He's 5'9, maybe, weak 5'10. I'd take money on this one. He just has a small head with lean body that gives a good proportion and attractiveness --but he ain't anywhere close to 5'10. 5(and by close, I mean 1.5 inches).

sorry folks but it's MAJOR DOWNGRADE time for James Franco and I have definitive proof. If Tom Hanks is 6'0-6'1, James is at least 4 inches shorter as these photos at the most recent Globes demonstrate. I'd say he's 5'8.

In freaks and geeks he looked the same height as Rogen b/c he was always wearing boots. In Pineapple Express he was at least 2 inches shorter than Rogen and he was barefoot the entire movie (Rogen wasn't wearing big shoes at all). There was even a line in the movie where an old lady described him as "good looking but short as ****".
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
That old lady in Pineapple Express was talking about Budlofsky, the short white dude who was after Franco's character. Lol. She wasn't talking about Franco.

I'm thinking he's actually around 5'9.5.

I'd buy 5'11 for Franco.He looked the same height as Seth Rogen in both Freaks and Geeks/Pineapple Express.5'10.5 seems fair,though.
