Jason Isaacs Height
5ft 10 ¾ (179.7 cm)
English actor, best known for films like The Patriot, Harry Potter, Armageddon, Event Horizon, Blackhawk Down and Soldier. On TV he appeared in Star Trek: Discovery, Brotherhood and Awake. On his Spotlight resume he was listed: "Height: 5'11" (180cm), Weight: 12st. (76kg)". In this convention photo I had near 1/4 inch more sneaker than him.

I'm 5ft 10ins, so I'm hardly small, but everyone I speak to says, 'You're playing Mike [Steel]? Have you met him? He's huge!'

Played tennis with Jason last year when he visited this neck of the woods. Smashing guy and very funny. I'm 178.5 ish and I'd say he was about eye to eye with me, if not a tiny bit less. He did have special insoles in his shoes but I'm not sure if that really added a lot. But a genuinely nice guy regardless of his height

I'm watching the 'Inspector Morse' episode called 'Cherubim and Seraphim', in which Jason works in laboratory manufacturing a drug that, he claims, is going to benefit the elderly, slowing down ageing, with a particular emphasis on keeping the mind in shape, thus preventing dementia.
In reality, these pills are being sold to teenagers as ecstacy. Consequently, two teenagers die from suicide, one of whom is Inspector Morse's 16-year-old studious niece, Marilyn.
When questioned by Morse and Lewis about these drugs, and the possibility of kids getting hold of them, he says that they are harmless, 'nice' drugs. Morse retorts that there's no such thing as a nice drug, and I have something to add in the backing up of this statement.
When I was 18-25, I regularly drank down an East End heavy rock nightclub. Both my parents were appalled at this, suspecting that I'd be mixing with 'the wrong type' of people. I put it down to snobbery and went anyway. At 20 years of age, I wondered what had happened to one of the regulars. Some 6 months later, I met him again and found out where he'd been.
This guy was a very innocent looking, naïve boy of my age, around 5ft5 tops, and had been silly enough to accept the ecstasy that some evil ba$tard drug dealer had offered him. He bought a large quantity of them, took the lot and felt he could fly, so he jumped out of the window of a high rise flat, breaking bones in every part of his body except for his right arm. (He showed me the horrific scarring). The paramedics said the only thing that kept his heart beating was the ecstasy, so he boasted that it had saved his life - and continued taking it, amongst other stupid things.
I always think of him when I watch this Morse episode, and wonder if he gave up indulging, or rather, being victimised by the pushers, before it was too late.
Today I spotted that Jason Isaacs starred in it for the first time. He didn't seem quite as tall as Kevin Whately's Lewis, but the difference was minimal. He looked around 5ft10.5, so that's what he gets.

Is he dropping height here Rob? He looks 1.5 inches taller but you have .25 inch advantage. So, that would make him 1.75 inches taller than you which works out at 5'10.

@Miss Sandy Cowell you usually give a positive upgrade to the listings that Rob provides. It's a rare occurrence that you give a celebrity a downgrade from Rob's listing! XD

I'd say around 50/50. It depends on the celeb. She's not biased towards any height guess at all, unlike a few posters here.

@Greg
The photo on this page is odd, as Isaacs' waistline would suggest a greater difference... and he is leaning in with his head quite noticeably. I haven't seen the other photo. Anyway what I would guess was more like 176-178 cm, which I think is possible.

I have to agree needs downgrade to his claim, he often doesn't look full 5 10.
He just doesnt look that tall even in boots would have hard time looking tallish.

He looks 5'9 and a bit. 180 cm would look much, much taller next to 173 cm, you can't discard that large of a difference so easily with just slightly different sneakers.

Not sure anymore but I agree Isaacs did always look a good 5'11.
But camera plays tricks and he just may be one of those guys that looks taller on screen.
It's interesting because next to Phelps twins he looks about 3.5 to 4 shorter. Next to an elderly Richard Harris he looked barely an inch shorter.
I think he was a strong 5'10.5 20 years ago and now maybe 5'10.3 or something

If Rob thought that he looked 5'10.75", he wouldn't have written in the Youtube comments that he could have looked 5'10"-5'10.5". Either way, 5'10.75" is a bit too high of a listing for him. Anyone with functioning eyes can see that.

Rob, I always thought he was a good 5'11 but after this he looks 5'10 in the picture. I know he may be giving up a half inch maybe touch more, but is it possible he was 5'10.5 and never a full 5'11?
Actually if you look at your picture it looks like a 1.5-1.75 inch difference.
Which puts him at 5'9.75 maybe. Plus your 1/4 inch advantage so 5'10.
Add he's dropping .5 inch maybe .75 he is definitely 5'10.5 range
Look at him next to Arnie Hammer who we know is around a strong 6'4.

Looks about 5 inches maybe 5.5 shorter but no more.

Rob, i'm surprise with this listing of downgrade after you have met him. But consider of his age 56 now he might be already the case of losing height. From the past he look 1.5" taller than Matt Damon and look more 181cm range with Tom Felton and the Phelps Twins a decade back. If you are given him 5'10.75" then Matt Damon is 5'9.25". I think the problem is Jason should have a peak and current height.
Click Here Jason dropping height on one knee standing and still look easily 3cm taller than Damon.

To be honest, even considering his footwear disadvantage, he looks 5'9.5 MAX here, BUT he easily looks around this listing with Tom Felton, so I guess that he's either dropping more height than it seems... or a good inch got lost somewhere, again???

Editor RobJust from watching Jason in film and TV I'd have thought he was closer to 5ft 11 than 10.
But after seeing him a few times that day I wasn't so sure about that...in fact he's a trickier guy to estimate than I had thought.

Nice new picture, Rob? I'm going have to check out all the films of his that I possess - and I can't imagine that they'll all be as nasty as 'A Cure For Wellness'! If I had the luxury of a TV and I could choose any of his films to watch right now, I'd plump for the excellent 'Event Horizon'. My boyfriend was desperate for a copy, and one Christmas, I travelled to Croydon to find one - that and 'Con Air'. They cost me £10 a piece! I've since added them to my own collection, at a far more competitive price. 😝
5ft10.75.

If I had the luxury of a TV and I could choose any of his films to watch right now, I'd plump for the excellent 'Event Horizon'. My boyfriend was desperate for a copy, and one Christmas, I travelled to Croydon to find one - that and 'Con Air'. They cost me £10 a piece! I've since added them to my own collection, at a far more competitive price. 😝

He looks about 3 inch taller than his HP cast mates Tom Felton in some of Harry Potter promotional images in Goblet of Fire 2005 and Deathly Hallows 2010/2011 who isnt even solid 5ft 9 175 like I said last year... Tom Felton is in fact similar to my height.... So, 5ft 11 makes sense for this guy at least...

About all I liked watching him in 'A Cure For Wellness' yesterday was his convincing Swedish/Germanic accent! Oh, his acting was fantastic as always, but the character he played was mega-mean in the extreme!

I know the name, and I have seen Jason in 'Armageddon', 'Event Horizon' and more. Now I am going to watch him in the delightfully entitled 2017 film 'A Cure for Wellness', so I'll be able to decide for myself whether I think he's 5ft10 or 11!
The film, as the title might suggest, is 18-rated! Am I a glutton for punishment, or what?

Yeah I think 5'11" is accurate...I don't have a full knowledge of his filmography but from what I can see he's a tricky guy...in Harry potter for example he does look tall, at least 5'11", but in the patriot he had at least 2" less than Tom Wilkinson (6'1") and was defeated by Adam Baldwin who towered on him (he does look also very close to Mel Gibson, although I think wore lifts)...

But then he does look about an inch taller than Orlando Bloom, and the same height, if not a teensy bit taller than Viggo Mortensen. There's also every chance that Hartnett is a 190 cm guy as well. 180 cm is fine for Jason imo. Maybe 5'10.75 could be a good listing, but 5'10.5 feels a little low - unless Bloom is 5'9.5 and Mortensen is 5'10.25.

In the Jackie Chan movie The Tuxedo, Isaacs's character is credited with a height of 5'10". Maybe he is more of 5'10.5" than a full 5'11".

I think you should put 5'10.5 . I too thought he was 5'11 but he seems to be a weak 5'11 at best like 5'10.7. If he claimed 5'10 and 5'11 common sense is he's in between. Or 5'11 was a shoe height.

First pic he look close to 6'0. The other sacha baron Cohen pic is bad. Weird angle.even so Isaacs looks 5'10.

There are a few more photos around that time showing Isaacs taller, but it's because of footwear difference (he and Boots and Viggo in normal dress shoes). I think this listing is about right. Maybe a quarter-inch in either direction.

he's in a new movie "Good" with Viggo Mortensen, and in the released stills Isaacs is just a bit shorter, although Viggo could be wearing heels. Viggo is usually pegged at 5'11" -- maybe Isaacs is 10.75" and Mortensen 11.25" ?

It's sad that Frank2 has no histories on that kind of issue, i mean, they must earn something from appearing taller, otherwise is a lot of nuissances only to appear taller (or is vanity such an compelling force?)

This sounds pretty accurate. At the empire awards he towered over Daniel Radcliffe, who was most likely wearing some trusty elevator shoes. It leads me to believe that Radcliffe may be even shorter than 5'4".
