Depp looks shorter compared to Dicaprio than Tom Hardy these days.
There’s a 0% chance he’s 5’9 anymore. 5’8 is fairer.
The 5’11 claim is bizarre to say the least.
Realist said on 19/Sep/23
I seen Johnny Depp barefoot in The Tourist running he looked 5'8 140-150 max definitely not a big guy. When he was younger he was probably somewhere around 130 in scissorhands.

Well considering Depp was a fraction over 5ft 9 at his peak and is now turning 60 a fraction over 5ft 8, I'd say close to 5ft 8 flat evening height.

You had said "174 is argument though".
And secondly
How tall do you see Depp with Tom and the other man in first pic although he worn thick heel boots
5'7 and a fraction said on 23/Feb/23
I think in general Depp looks about 5'9. Can understand why some would guess him a fraction under or so but just 5'8 is lowballing him.

@iLogic7
I think when I say “match,” it’s more of a perception thing (I feel like I’m on level with them, if that makes sense). That doesn’t necessarily mean I’m dead on even as a measure of height.
Though they are a weak 5’11 and I can manage a strong 5’9 at times so maybe that accounts for something.
iLogic7 said on 21/Jan/23
@Malcom Oliver I have 5'9 friends I am like 5'11 and half (+/- 0.5cm) i agree 5'9 guys can look shorter and taller but to match your 5'11 friends seems kinda impossible. You sure they are 5'11 or you are taller than 5'9.
Malcolm Oliver said on 20/Jan/23
Yeah I can attest to this, am the same height as him and sometimes I feel as short as my 5’7 friends while at times, I can match other 5’11 guys on a good day.
5’9 is dead on average and it really makes for confusing yourself as shorter or taller. Depp seems no stranger to this.
Alanna said on 16/Jan/23
No way 5’7. He’s at least 5’9.
Sandy Cowell said on 12/Jan/23
Elene - If you haven’t seen it already, check out the ‘Johnny Depp Fast Show - Suit You Sir’ sketch on YouTube. I’ve just looked and yes, they sure do have it! It’s very funny and somewhat rude, and shows beautifully Johnny’s height. He looks 1” taller than Paul Whitehouse, who is 5ft8, and quite a bit shorter than Mark Williams’ 6ft.
Johnny wears an appealing white floppy hat, but it doesn’t interfere with our viewing of his height, and don’t forget to check those shoulders.
Cheers Elene! 😁👍🏼🥂
⭐️ Another fantastic film of Johnny’s is ‘Secret Window’, which is based on a Stephen King story. As is so typical of King, it’s about a writer, just the same as ‘The Shining’, ‘Room 1408’ and ‘Misery’.
It’s well worth seeing. 📺

JOhnny is hard ti guess. Beside orlando bloom he could pull of 176 alot But Orlando did look more than 2 cm shorter than DIcpario, eaisly 3 cm. Bhut i have dicaprio at 181,5 that makes Orlando around 178,5 ( listed at 179) thats a good listing but i think he falls a little under that in the afternoon. And that makes Depp 175,5. At worst depp have looked 174 and at best 176,5 if we go by the middle as usual he is a legit 175 guy. pretty mutch bang on 5´9
Sh0ckeh said on 4/Dec/22
I am 5'8 and I met Johnny Depp 5 years back, and he was legit 5'8.5, I could not tell any difference between his height and mine, nor in our photo, we look exactly the same height. I was wearing boots with a slight heel and so was he. So I assume he'd be 5'8.5 max. If it wasnt for all the votes saying he's 5'9, I'd have guessed 5'8.25.

He can look 5'8.5 in some movies, others like Donnie brasco he can pull off 5'9.5. 5'9 is fair.

He was never 5-10
Most Legit 6'3 said on 14/Aug/22
He was a weak 5’10 back in his prime. Now at almost 60, he’s looking about 5’9 or a little under it. I remember someone saying that he was 5’9.5 during the production of one of the Pirates movies so he was probably tgat height at one point.
John Ernesto said on 14/Aug/22
I think Johnny Depp is 5'5 and I will explain why. Stephen Smyer proved how Tom Cruise is 5'4.5.
Johnny Depp and Tom Cruise look close in height in photos. Johnny Depp also wears enhanced footwear to try to appear taller than he is.
I have seen photos of him with Connor McGregor and Johnny wearing enhanced footwear still looks a couple inches shorter than McGregor.

5’9 flat is spot on, in his prime he probably didn’t go below it.Absolute lowest I’d guess is 5’8.75 but I think the full 5’9 is more likely.

Johnny with 5'8 Anthony Kiedis and 5'9.5 David Bowie, giving a strong 5'10 impression here: tinyurl.com/2p5w3a2t ... He truly is an enigma, can look anything between 5'8 and 5'10.
I think he might have been around 5'9.5 to 5'9.75 peak morning height in his twenties and probably lost half an inch up until now...

To think that I once had Al Pacino at 5’7” and hence, Johnny Depp three inches taller at 5’10”! It’s unthinkable today for me but a common trap others have probably fallen for too. I also believe 5’8.75” is more likely than 5’9.25” for Depp. Definitely 175 range.

Rob, johhny doesn't seem to look 5'9" because he clearly looks 3.2 inches taller than his ex wife Amber Heard who used to wear 2 Inches heels that makes her close to johhny's height that means he may not be 5'9 but definitely he is 5'9.25 but 5'9.25 seems bit fair johhny depp is at least 5'9.25 as i mentioned. Rob, can you please upgrade him to 5'9.25 he clearly 3.25 inches taller than Amber Heard who is 5'7" please do it for me buddy
Vibram said on 7/Jun/22
I doubt a man of 59 has lost an inch! Only very tall or heavy men like Dolph Lundgren, Schwarzenegger and Eastwood look like they had lost an inch at 60.
Men under 6feet start losing 1 millimetre a year at around 55. He's probably lost half a centimeter. To me Depp is 174-175cm.
My dad was 176.5cm prime and 175cm today age 71.

Depp's thick soled shoes in the photos with 5'11.5" Cumberbatch give him 1/2" advantage. That said, Depp would be 3" shorter than Cumberbatch, so 5'8.5 for Depp. He might have hit 5'9 at his peak.

Perhaps he's grown in stature since the court verdict yesterday.
On the other hand, when asked in court by Amber Heard's barrister that it was true that he is quite a lot bigger than Amber, isn't he? he said he didn't think so, which rather contradicts his 'monstrous' quote above, doesn't it?
I'm a fan nonetheless and I'm happy with the verdict, and I reckon 5 ft 9 exactly
MaskDeMasque 5'9.5 said on 20/May/22

The average does seem a little harsh. Having seen a lot of his early stuff I struggle to see him below 5'9. 5'8.75 at absolute worst but 5'9 seems more likely to me.

No it's not. Clearly you have never studied height charts of men over time. One inch (2.5 cm) is the average height loss by age 58. You read that correctly. Average! Some lose a little more and some lose a little less.
STUDY FACTS BEFORE FORMING OPINIONS.

@Danman1
I’d actually argue that Depp has average proportions; definitely strikes me as a 5’8-5’9 guy just based on his frame. You are right though when it comes to face; a slimmer face like his carries a proportional illusion. Longer, more defined face. He hit the genetic lottery jackpot in this regard lol.

TorontoWoman said on 2/May/22
I’d say 5’8”. Beautiful man, no matter his height. I’m going by what he looks like standing next to other people whose heights are known. Responding to a couple comments…people in their late 50s have not shrunk much, unless they have serious arthritis or some other illness. I’m mid 50s, with osteopenia, and have only lost 1/4 inch. Otherwise, noticeable shrinking doesn’t happen until advanced old age. And, at most, it’s only about an inch, maybe and inch and a half, according to two doctors I’ve spoken with. And to Scott, who says women over 45 are almost never attractive….I can think of several (even if they’ve had help) JLO, almost 53, J. Aniston, 53, A. Jolie, 47. And that’s just a tiny sampling. It’s not that older women can’t be beautiful. YOU just think

5-8 barefoot, 5-10 in boots. Slim figure with really good proportions is what keeps him from appearing short. He also has one of those movie star long faces with huge bone structure.
Meltdown said on 28/Apr/22
I agree with a lot of people here. Depp is turning 59 and already at the age where most men have lost their first inch or at least 2 cm.
Here's my professional estimation...
Peak height: 5ft 9 ¼ (176 cm)
Current height: 5ft 8 ½ (174 cm)

@Rob I saw you're Johnny Depp video, sometimes you seem satisfied after downgrading the height claims of these celebrities, heheh.

JD seems a legit 5’9 to me. Not sure about now, but definitely was in his prime. Edges out Cruise by an inch in that first picture and has the frame of a 5’9 guy.

Depp is pushing 60 now, he's certainly at the age where he's likely lost a little bit.
Possibly 5'9 peak down to 5'8.5 range.
Rising174cm said on 20/Nov/21
I have to go lower than viper's guess with Depp. I have a friend who has a side by photo with Johnny from the 90s and Johnny looks maybe 5'8" flat with him. I say this because I saw a photo of myself and my friend from a few years ago where we're positioned similarly side by side and Johnny definitely doesn't look taller than me in comparison. If anything, he's shorter, but I'll grant that I appear to be standing a bit better. Fwiw, my friend said Johnny was a very nice guy.
Also, Johnny and 5'3.5" Heather Langenkamp both wore sneakers in Nightmare' and Johnny did not look more than 5" taller:
Click Here Similarly, here's a full photo with Al Pacino who was very lucky if he ever scraped 5'6":
Click Here
Also, Jerry Bruckheimer is listed at 5'7.25" and was 70 in the above photo. Johnny has cowboy boots giving him more than half an inch footwear advantage, yet he only looked 2" taller at that event. Btw, based on the angle and height of knees, Cruise has elevator boots that add more than Depp's cowboy boots casting doubt on whether Cruise was much taller than Bruckheimer barefoot, if at all. Cruise looks to have about 1.25" more footwear yet he's definitely not more than 1.25" taller. If Bruckheimer is about 173 cm in those dress shoes then Depp is only about 178 cm in those cowboy boots which should add at least 4 cm actual height.
Also, honest 5'9.25" Casper Van Dien looked clearly taller:
Click Here He does not look taller with Casper than Stephen Baldwin did and I know Stephen is about 5'8.5". Btw, Johnny had those Apollo Creeper platforms he often wears at the event with Casper.
I think people are fooled by his build and thick footwear. He's probably a 5'8.5" guy claiming 5'11" like Mario Lopez. I'll even give him a better chance of 5'8.75" than Lopez, but I don't think he's any taller than that.

Johnny does tend to look little short of 5ft10.5/11 at times, but I'm fully aware that he's partial to Cuban heels, which obviously are going to up his height; check out his 'Suit You Sir' sketch in 'The Last Fast Show Ever', Part One. It's part of his look and I find it a whole lot more appealing than secretly built-in height boosters! Women wear high heels 👠👠 and can even be considered dowdy if they don't. It's high time that guys have the same option, without being judged.
I find Johnny's statement eye make-up attractive too, though my opinion is doubtless influenced by growing up in the Glam Rock era. 🎧

Elene said on 5/Aug/21
Judging by his body proportions,looks like 176 cm.
syam said on 29/Jul/21
What I think is Depp is 178-179.I belive he is no lesser than 177cm .I his fan and maybe i cant accept he is 175.3cm .
MaskDeMasque 5'9.5 said on 21/Jul/21
I think 5'8.75 is the shortest he could be.
177cm said on 19/Jul/21
Weak 5’9” IMO. 5’8.5” - 5’8.75”
J welling said on 12/Jul/21
I'd say now he's 5'8 Max if you look at him and Donnie Brasco he's not too much taller than Al Pacino Al Pacino and maybe 5'6 and Weight Wise I would say he's probably about a hundred and sixty pounds
viper said on 26/May/21
I'd bet a decent amount of money there is only about an inch difference between Depp and Pitt
MaskDeMasque said on 25/May/21
Does Johnny Depp have a big heel in the first pic Rob? He makes Tom Cruise look like a flat 5'7 there.
Editor Rob
It's a style that could be 1.3-1.4 range
MaskDeMasque said on 25/May/21
@Slim 6'1.5
Sometimes he can look around that 5'8.75 mark but have you seen his earlier films like ed wood and dead man, he looks full 5'9 in those.
Miss Sandy Cowell said on 25/May/21
In the TOP picture only, I reckon Johnny could actually pass for a strong 5ft10, if not 5ft10.5.
I'll never forget the sketch on The Last Fast Show Ever, when Johnny walks into the gentleman's outfitters to be measured up for a suit, and Paul Whitehouse and Mark Williams simply can't embarrass him, as he joins in! 👏
It was then that I came to the statistics as written above.
Today he can have 5ft9.25. He says he's 5ft11, but I find it difficult to believe that a guy like him would give his shoe height! He has everything going for him so why wish for more height? 🤔
Miss Sandy Cowell said on 24/May/21
There was a girl on 'Who Wants To Be A Millionaire?' last night who wanted to travel round the World and take with her Johnny Depp.... and someone else for conversational purposes.
Chris Tarrant said to the 26-year-old, "Wouldn't you talk to Johnny?" "Eh, I'd save him for other things....!" she replied. 😯
Chris replied, "Be careful - Mummy's watching!"
Don't underestimate Johnny Depp in the interlect department. He's fluent in French and very amusing and clever, AND he plays in the Alice Cooper band. Decorative he may be, but I think he'd make a great conversation buddy.

Median height in many country, not only in usa
Depend on regions, in Italy in North Italy or Nord est average is likely to 5 ft 10-5 ft 11, but in 16 regions, as Liguria or Tuscany average is more reastocally for younger 1 75-1 76
In French, Spain, Portugal I think exactly the same
In Svizerland a bit more taller
Only in Nord Europe or in Jugoslavia average is very high

Depp has honestly managed to look anywhere from 5ft8-5ft11 in the same way Pitt has managed to appear 5ft10-6ft1 and Cruise 5ft7-5ft10...

I doubt he’s shrunk a full inch, more a quarter to half an inch, but I do agree he kinda deserves a peak & current. So does Brad Pitt

He's pushing 60 and definitely lost an inch by now. Time for an update! I'd say 176 cm peak, now 174 cm. Possibly 173.

Jakey is right...5'7 was average in 19th, and lower in countries where wars were on...

In the 19th to begging of 20th century the averege male height in the Europe and North America was 5.7 so nowadays 5.9 is considered tall!

Rising174cm said on 30/Dec/20
@Rob: I think on 21 Jump Street, he looked anywhere in that range. I became convinced of the 174 cm after seeing my friend's picture. I noticed that in a picture of me standing side by side with this same friend a few years ago, Depp was definitely not taller than me. Prior to that and the Bruckheimer pics/videos, I did think Depp was a full 5'9". Likewise, I'm considering your picture with Langenkamp, but that depends on what you weigh more significantly.
Rising174cm said on 28/Dec/20
That 21 photo is one more reason I think he's 5'8.5" max. He did not look more than 5" taller than 5'3.5" Heather Langenkamp with both in sneakers back in Nightmare on Elm Street:
Click Here Also looked more 5'8" than 5'9" (in boots) with Al Pacino, whom I doubt was a full 5'6":
Click Here I became convinced after seeing Depp look 5'8" in a side by side pic with my friend in the 90s. He simply developed a fondness for boots, though Depp in cowboy boots is only about 2" taller than 5'7" Bruckheimer above.
Editor Rob
I did watch 21 Jump Street and overall still felt Depp was pretty near 5ft 9, I can see at times 174 argument though
Slim 6'1" said on 18/Dec/20

The talented actor is on again tonight, starring in 'The Ninth Gate', which is being shown on the Horror Channel at 9, just in case anyone is interested. It's directed by Roman Polanski and is well worth a watch, of that I promise you. Six years separate the two movies.

Johnny Depp appears to be all of 5'10" in A Nightmare On Elm Street and 21 Jump Street. He was likely a solid 5'10" for all of the 1980s, 1990s, and 2000s.

tom cruise is 5ft6 3/4 depp is 5ft8 1/2 maybe 5ft9 flat
Morgan Kaye said on 4/Dec/20
Tom is around 5'8, and Johnny only looks an inch taller than him in this photo. Johnny also has slightly more heel height than Tom, so I'm going with Johnny being around 3/4 of an inch taller than Tom, which is much closer to 5'9 than 5'8. I predict him to be 174.5cm or so.
I think he can legitimately call himself 5'9.
BenSolooo said on 30/Nov/20
Saw a picture of him next to Andrew Scott and they looked quite similar in height. I don’t think that Depp is taller than 175cm. I would go with 174cm or maybe 174 and 1/2 cm. Cause I believe Scott is 172-173cm.

@Khaled @Canson
Even more, the 5'8.75" is not short for an US male. Personally I think a short man would be someone that is towered (a difference of more than 3 inches or 8 cm) by and average one. The US average is between 175-177 on the internet, so a short (in the US) would be 169 and below. Between 170-173 is medium short (or below the average) and 174-177 average.

@David G, Depp never was the full 5'9" , he was 5'8.75" at his peak and these days he is probably shorter.

174 not actually the full 5’9” time for a slight downgrade just a quarter inch
cmillz said on 19/Oct/20
1 standard deviation from normal is where short starts, so 5’6.5” would be the start of short in the US, assuming 50th percentile is a solid 176cm.
Anyone saying 5’8 is short is
trolling.

No way 5'7''. He could be anywhere between 5'8.5" to 5'9.25" I think. I think 5'9'' is about right. His 5'11'' claim is laughable. I didn't have him down as someone who would exaggerate their height as much as that.
Sean95 said on 7/Jul/20
People sometimes underestimate someone's height either intentionally or just judging by a quick glance. For example a mystery shopper guessed a colleagues height 'around 5'9"' when he was actually 5'10.5-5'11 (he claimed 6'). Solid 5'9 for Depp

It can depend on whether it's attached to the wall or if it's been used and abused.
Also you are relying on the person taking the measurement to do it right. I've witnessed a nurse take a reading of somebody before they stood tall, and it was almost 3/4 inch less than what i measured them...

I once worked with Johnny Depp on a film in Hollywood, as an actor, on a film called "Private Resort". Depp was a very casual, modest guy who stood a shade under 5'9", with a great sense of humour about himself. A real gentleman.

I can't remember thinking he seemed much taller than he normally does, but then maybe I was paying more attention to the film than height 😲 There were a couple of shorter than 5ft 7 male cast members I remember though!

Xoxo56 said on 21/Apr/20
wouldn’t be shocked if he’s like 5’8. I really don’t trust his footwear in a lot of pictures. I think he is a REALLY small guy. Camera angels and footwear can make you look 2-3 inches taller. He is using elevators and has got a frame which makes him look taller than he is, because he is a small guy in terms of build. I wouldn’t be surprised if he struggles for 5’8 on a stadiometer in the middle of the day, for instance 2pm. Would guess him at
top morning height: 173,9 cm
after 2 hours: 172,6 cm
Absolute low height: 170,8 cm / a bit over 5’7

I don't think he ever looked as tall as his 5ft 11 claim, but 5ft 10? On the odd occasion he might have looked it, but I'd still go with him typically looking nearer 5ft 9 than 10 through his career.

Hello @Rob, i think he is a little bit shorter than 5 ft 9. If you compare him to Cillian Murphy in the movie Transcendence they are almost the same height. Cillian is listed here as 5 ft 8 so i guess Depp is like 5 ft 8 1/4. What do you think?

Chris Junior Hernandez 1990 said on 18/Nov/19
I still can't absorb the "only 5'7" Depp by the quote from random interviewer mention. That would leave Tom Cruise down to 5'5 and 3/4 base on Rob listing. The worst low i wouldn't think of under 5'8 for Depp and not below 5'6 3/4 for Tom.
