John Leguizamo's Height
5ft 6 ½ (168.9 cm)
Colombian actor, from Moulin Rouge and appearin in Assault on Precinct 13. He claims in the Daily Bruin when playing the part Clown in the film Spawn, "I had to bend over, like crouch down so I could be 4 foot 11. I'm 5 foot 8. I'm very tall"

During 'Die Hard 2.' It wasn't race discrimination. It was height discrimination. I'm 5 feet 8. I was cast as Terrorist No. 2, but I was the shortest one there and they demoted me to Terrorist No. 7. AND they had me die earlier than I had to. AND they made me die with a hood over my head. And THEN they dubbed my voice.
-- 1993

a 5'6 flat guy definitely shouldn't be towering over a 5'4 1/2 guy like that and they're wearing the same exact shoes. if he was 5'5.5-5'6.0 then freddy would have to be 5'2.5-5'3 flat.
i agree that he's definitely short but he's not that short, he's gotta be in the 5'6 1/2-5'7 flat range.

I saw him once in front of a theater on Broadway talking to reporters (I guess he was doing a play). He was with Cedric the Entertainer. I was surprised at how short both of them were. I would say 5'5 or 5'6 for both men.

Anywhere in that 5’6-5’6.5 range is plausible for him. Definitely looks legit short in everything he is in.

Might need a peak height he really did look low average younger days now he looks shorter and heavier.
Could pass for a weak 5 8 back in the day better than pacino ever did he never fooled me once.
He could be 5 .5 now and as listed peak, he was often not the star so i doubt they gave him any wardrobe upgrades..
Id give him an upgrade just for messing with seagal back in the day funny story "he runs like a fat woman but hits like a big muthafu"
He is hilarious and actually does a decent bit of acting.

5'11 barefoot said on 7/Jun/15
You people are losers. I worked the American Latin Movie Awards. ALMA in 2002. I'm barely over 6 foot in shoes. I'm 5'11" barefoot. I personally had to escort the actors and give them event guides for the show. I will name and tell you the actors I met that night's heights. Leguizamo was small about 5'5" or maybe 5'6" or shorter. Hector Elizondo was about 5'9". Antonio Banderas wears lifts he was about 5'8" to 5'9" in lifts. Esai Morales was close to 5'8" than 5'9". The boxer Fernando Vargas was there wearing lifts he was not even close the 5'11" listing. He was closer to 5'8" barefoot probably now that I think about that day. Some of the actors from resurrection boulevard were there Nicholas Gonzalez was there he was about 5'8" maybe on the show he tried to be a boxer so he looked taller. Um Jay Lo was there but I stared at her booty and didn't care about her height. Arnold Shwarznegger was there to I have no idea why. He was about close to my height which was cool I thought. Cause I've seen him at 6'2" and 6'1". Anyway as stated My height is 5'11" barefoot all these actors were wearing obviously some more padded than others. Oh and Mark Whalberg is 1 inch taller than Leguizamo by 1 inch by the way give or take some centimeters of course.

5'6 seems perfect, watching him in the Babysitters now and he's much shorter than Alexandra Daddario who is a genuine 5'8. Possibly smaller but movies make it hard to tell

Saw John walking through Washington Square Park today in NYC and was within 10 feet of him. He was wearing boots but regardless thought he would be shorter. I am 6'3" and to me he looked a little over 5'10". I would give him a little over 5'8" in bare feet.

Looked to be at least three inches shorter than the 5'10" listed Donnie Wahlberg in "Righteous Kill". No way he is taller than 5'7". More likely he is closer to 5'6" - 5'6.5".

In 1991 he claimed 5'7"
At 5 feet 7 inches tall and 147 pounds, "I'd make a good junior welterweight," he said.

I doubt he's any taller but since he's tried claiming 5'8" and even 5'9" in recent years I doubt he's any shorter.
5'7", no more, no less I'd say.

Here is a hilarious quote about his height.
"John Leguizamo in "Spawn" (1997). Leguizamo is 5 feet, 10 inches tall and thin, which may come as a surprise to those who know him only through his performance as the squat, rotund and flamboyantly evil Clown."
Here's the link Click Here
5'10"????? A guy who admitted to being 5'7" being described as 5'10" is laughable to say the least.

I had to come back and peek in on the JL discussion. Please tell me if I am wrong but I always assumed the strength of this site was it's reliance on empirical information, and not the claims of the person who stands (pardon the pun) to benefit from said claims. Can we really rely on JL's statements of stature even if he seems to be close to consistent? I think we are ignoring the the smirk rule of height that short guys have employed. The oath goes " I will claim any height I can say with a straight face and people don't smirk when the words come out of my mouth."

A few years ago I saw JL at a Spanish theatre in NYC. I was a teenager then, but already 5'3 as I am now. I was wearing 1 1/2 to 2 inch shoes and my jaw literally dropped when I saw how short he was. I walked right by him and we were eye to eye. Trust me, I dated a guy who is 5'4 (short but cute, just like John) and JL is the same. I def. think he wears lifts when he's at premieres and on camera. I guess that day he left them at home!

Yeah, 5'8" in heels, to me, implies at the very least a 1" difference. I'm still thinking somewhere in the 5'6" range, for him.

Seagal's maybe six-five, and i'm just under six feet tall... well, way under. Five Eight. In Heels.
therefore he has to be an inch or so below five eight. 5'6 and a half maybe?

oh , if Glennjamin saw him at 5'7 minimum ... then Lawrence is a lift wearer .
really though , he is not that much taller then 5'4 max Bob hoskins .
maybe John is a 5'6ish guy that just leves a 5'7-5'8ish impression ?

I agree MD , 5'8 seems to high for him ... Martin Lawrence claims only 5'7 ( once pushing it to 5'8 ) and he had a clear 1'-1.5 on John in that movie !
also Martin can't be anymore then 5'7 because Mr.T had a good 4 inches on him in his tv sitcom ! ... all i can think of is that John is shorter then his claims or Martin was just wearing lifts for movie ??? i personally think a shade under 5'7 !

Yeah, 5'7" seems like the very, very top of the scale. This is one where I'd definitely think he's taking claim to the 2 inch rule. I'm actually think he could be a full inch under 5'7".

In the April 2003 Men's Health, Johnny-boy claimed, before training for his boxing flick, to be 5'9" and 162, and I quote "that's a lot of fat" until trimming and muscling his way to 147, saying "I gained muscle I never had... I was diesel!" Am I the only one that finds these "stats" and his perspective of them delusional? The only way I see "diesel" at 147 is if the height is off by more than a couple of inches. BTW did anyone see "To Wong Foo..." ? Next to average height actors, Snipes and Swayze, he looked less than average in stature. Please tell me if I am wrong.

well in one of the R1DVD extras, Leguizamo hosted a featurette in which he remarked that Romero was like a NBA basketball player; pretty funny

I'd bet BOTH of them wear lifts, because Johnny can look much taller at premiers and such. He likes to wear a lot of boots. I just don't see how his old boxing profile can have him at 5'5" and him being much taller than that. Boxing shoes are very then soled and heeled.

I'd say less than 5'7". Here he is with 5'7" Dennis Hopper (far left). If you trace a line over, Dennis is taller, even if you take into account Leguizamo's stance:

Editor Rob yes, I've seen their scenes together, hopper I would be very surprised if he didn't have lifts to make himself (the boss) look a bit taller

c'mon, he's a solid 5-8er, looks it in all of his films especially
then again, MD's link looks real, especially if it was taken during atheletic training. And in Assault on Precinct 13, Ja Rule was was the same height. STill he looks 5-8 in all his other films

Plus, I found this page listing him at 5'5" and 155lbs. I'd think this would probably be more accurate seeing as how boxing shoes are really thin soled, and possibly taken in barefeet:

Ok with that Super Mario movie i don't think it's a proper chart. I watched the film and the space in-between what looks to be 5'6" and 6' could fit John Leguizamo's head within it two times or maybe more. Remember they are meant to be in another dimension so with that mind I think they put in the chart to show they have a slightly different measuring system in Koopa Kingdom. Also with the fact pointed out below that they are hanging by chains it doesn't show anything unfortunately.

Hmm, I would have thought 173–175 cm/5'8"–5'9" next to Jay Leno. But if he says 173 cm, that's got to be the max... Oh well, I suppose I didn't get that good a look anyway :/

Not too sure he's this tall. In the film Summer of Sam, Leguizamo has on high heeled platforms and has his hair coiffed up and still is one of the shortest people in the club scenes. Mira Sorvino with heels on was a smidgen taller than him while he had HEELS on as well! Not too long ago, he was also on Nickeloden News. When he came onto the stage, he had on some HUGE mountain climbing boots and still was a bit shorter than the average height-looking guess. I heavily doubt he's 5'8", let alone 5'7.5". In Hollywood, usually when the stars state their height, they bunk it by 2 inches and I think that's what is going on here.

They both have chunky shoes on.. especially Baker. If Baker is 5'10", then 5'7.5" for John sounds right.
