Editor RobThey could be pretty close, though I may still give Miller the edge

The average guess is surprising. He looks same height as Ewan McGregor and he was like half inch shorter than Michael c hall. 5'9.5

i really dont know why ppl say he looked shorter than M.C.Hall in Dexter when they are exactly the same when the floor is even which you can see many times ... just watch season 5 again! I dont think Michael would edge him out they seem to be even in height. M.C.Hall is def in the 178 or 179 Area no more, no less.

I'd say he's 5'10, if he's listed at 5'9.75, he's probably 5'10 a good chunk of the day. If this is his low height, he's perfectly fine to go ahead and claim 5'10. He looks 5'10 in Elementary also.

At the end of the film 'Plunkett and MacLeane', you see Johnny walking down a tunnel with his co-stars Robert Carlisle and Liv Tyler. The fellas are one on each side of Liv and she is the tallest, at 5ft10!
For that reason, he gets 5ft9 from me! 🚶👩🚹

He looked a good amount shorter than Michael C. Hall. He even had a slight shoe advantage. I think a strong 5' 9" is good for him - 176 cm or 5ft 9.25. Average guy.

5'10 is too tall.
He's probably a tad shorter than me, that'd make him 175cm. Denfinitely not taller than that.Certainly far from 180 as he's listed on some sources.

If Jonny is 175 or under, then Michael C Hall should be downgraded. In Dexter, they look the same height and sometimes Jonny is shade over Hall.

I met him at JFK airport, I'm 5'5 and was wearing flats, he was 3 inches taller than me TOPS. Me and my mom, were very surprised on how small he looked. 5'7 MAYBE 5'8.

With 6ft Benedict Cumberbatch

Obviously not standing flat on the floor (haha) but regardless, drawing a line across the ankles they're pretty much at their relative heights. I'd say Benedict has a 2.5" advantage so 5'9" and possibly a half inch. 176cm seems more accurate.

Editor Rob he can look a weak 5ft 10 guy a lot of time, a fraction shy of 5ft 10 might turn out to be nearer.

This guy is hard to figure out. He looked shorter than 5'10 Michael C. Hall on Dexter, and he could even look shorter than 5'9.5 Ewan McGregor. But then he goes on to look only a tad shorter than Charlie Hunnam (however tall he really is). And next to Jude Law he can go from looking taller, the same height, a tad shorter, or WAY shorter... I doubt he is 5'10, maybe closer to 5'9 Rob?

Don't believe his footwear is clunky. Think the two-tone shoes he wears are by John Varvatos. He is very thin but believe that is because he does so much running. Looking taller or shorter than Ewan McGregor or Jude Law depends on the camera angle. Either way, he is a handsome package.

Jennifer Carpenter is over 5'10 in a 2" heel, maybe he's not the full 5'10 but 5'6-5'7 is a joke.

I saw him and Lucy Liu at ComicCon. No way in HELL is he anywhere in the neighborhood of 5'10. I'm 5'9 and was wearing flat sandals and I could have thrown him in my pocket. I would say 5'6 and if I was being really generous, I'd give him 5'7. My 5'2 friend and I were saying afterwards how shocked we were by how diminutive he is.

In Hackers with Angelina Jolie he seemed as tall as Angelina, also that was a while ago. But also in Aeon Flux he seemed a little shorter than Charlize Theron (but I think she was in heels)

This guy is very hard to judge. Miller was no more than 5'9 in Trainspotting beside 5'10 McGregor but when he stands beside Angelina you think that he's a solid 5'11. The explanation for this is that Angelina Jolie is just 5'4-5'5 tall.

If Angelina Jolie is really 5'7, I think that Jonny is near 6 foot. Just look at this pictures. Jolie in 3 inch heels, Jonny wearing normal shoes. He has 2.5 inches on her. I bet Jolie's smaller. I think Jonny is a legit 5'10, not smaller.

In the photos posted by ripbigkev, Angelina Jolie was wearing heels that night, so it's not really a fair comparison. In the Mansfield Park shot... that's not Jonny Lee Miller. He's just slightly taller than Click Here, so 5'9" or 5'10" is probably right.

The Spotlight directory for male actors says 5'10", and as an actor you or your agent puts your height in for that. Most male actors big their height up (as you know!), so maybe he's being honest for Spotlight, otherwise I'm sure it would say 6ft or more.

that would go with mcgregor maybe 177cm...they are close in height

Sorry Rob, can't agree - see Click Here or Click Here - both taken this year - this is no 6 footer. As I said we stood virtually eye to eye. And try this shot - Click Here - surely this rests my case for 5'8". If you don't believe me watch it.

Editor Rob actually I just realised I'd already added this guy a long time ago at 5ft 10.5, here is the first page, then added him again at 5ft 11. See my recent comment on the kevin mckidd page - after seeing trainspotting again, compared to mcgregor and carlyle he looks closer to 5ft 10...

No way in the world = i met jonny about eight years ago when i was stuck on a sidewalk with him for about five minutes waiting for something to happen at the Edinburgh Film Festival - I'm around 5'6 and he would be only one or two inches taller - 5'9 at the outside. This website's got me going now - i remember him in BBC's Mansfield Park and he seemed short compared to rest of cast there too. Maybe this is why angelina....ok i'm gonna have to check her height now...
