He's way shorter than 5'9". He's shorter than Shailene Woodley in Killer Heat and she's apparently 5' 7" and some change.

Gotta be 5 9.25 which is taller then I thought for him , but I’m watching killer jest with a guy you met rob The Mr robot guy and he has him by .25-35 of an inch so You have him at 5 9 so I give Joseph definitely being the taller one 5 ft 9.25

9am - 30 mins out of bed I'm 175.3 to 175.4
Most of the day - Hovering at 174
At midnight - 15 hours awake - I'm 173 or 172.9 (worst case, bad posture, sitting, lifting etc)
You reckon I'd edge JGL out? Is it fair I claim 5'9"? Thanks.

There's at least one in every discussion. 5'6" max is preposterous.
But I do want to know how Tony Danza, who's at least 2 inches shorter than JGL, still gets a 5'9" listing.

PLEASE READ!
I was told on two different occasions from extras who met him in person and stood next to him on set that he wasn't much taller than them even though he was wearing platforms. The extras were both 5'3-5'4 and told me he was just about an inch taller than them and DEFINITELY 5'6 at the MAX.
P.S: I still love him but the truth needs to be heard.

A happy 40th birthday to Joseph Gordon-Levitt! 🎉🎂 he's birthday twins with Paris Hilton and that means 2 more from 1981 turns the 4th decade today. Gosh they're getting into grandparent territory.

I'm only 5'6" (maybe a little over 5' 6.5" in the morning) and over 5'7" with regular shoes on. I was a little shorter than Jamie Foxx who did NOT look 5'9" in person (unless we're counting shoes). JGL is shorter than Foxx so I'll let you do the math.

Christian: "I've noticed that male child actors tend to grow up shorter, compared to female child actresses."
Filmmakers can present shorter guy as a younger guy, even as a child or an adolescent. That way they get someone who looks young, but has more acting experience, is more capable.

5'9 is not short. 5'7 isn't short too. Somewhere start from 168cm and below for men consider short.

He doesn't look as low as 5'9 with 5'11 Seth Rogen. I think a little over 5'9 like 5'9.25" is possible.

I have never seen him like a regular 5'9 guy, he always seems to edge out guys like tony danza or even tom hardy when both are on equal ground,next to anthony mackie he doesn't look a full inch shorter mor like half inch or even 3/4 i think his former listing was really acurate 5'9.25 he doos look like a 1.76 guy next to seth rogen and anthony mackie , i am pretty sure that if he stood next to kurt russell they would both be the exact same height.

This kid is a great actor just avoid some of the really low budget ones..
He looked 5 10 in shoes in the batman he was in also about that in inception but he looked smaller than hardy.
He has looked quite small and frail up against big 5 11 guys maybe as small as 5 8 .5.
But hey if he gets to count his hair like gylenhall he could squeeze out a strong 5 9 barefoot.

He looks short because of his abnormally small shoulders. Compare his shoulders with Dwight Howard; even without knowing the latter is an athlete, the shoulders alone make the latter look taller and bigger.

Joseph 5’8.75/5’9
Tom Hardy 5’9/5’9.25
I feel as though in photos where one of them is taller than the other it’s a posture plus lifts and/or shoe type situation (more so referring to Joseph here who I think is a lot more “height aware"). I totally agree with your Hardy 5’9 listing Rob but I feel like Joseph needs a downgrade, I just can’t see him at 176cm (there are photos where he is holding immaculate posture next to Hardy who is either slightly slouching or holding a more average looking posture and Joseph is either around the same height or a bit shorter looking).
In the photos where Joseph is taller or around the same height I honestly believe it’s a mixture of his great posture (against Hardy’s more looser stance) plus a mixture of lifts/shoe type.
Tom and Joseph could at least have a swap of heights on here.
Feel like you may disagree Rob but just my two cents ;)
Interested to hear your thoughts :)

I find it hilarious people are arguing over a quarter inch. So many factors go into height such as posture, footwear, time of day, slope of floor etc. The quarter inch is indiscernible except in controlled environments. That being said I always thought he looked around 5'10" but he has a lanky lean frame which always gives a favorable lengthier appearance.

JGL is leaning in with Kingsley in that photo. Anyway, he looks the listed height. Not tall, not short. Comfortably average. He's small-framed though which might make people think he's "smaller."
Here he is with 5'11 Seth Rogen.

Even if you're not ready to downgrade him to a weak 5ft 9, at least remove that quarter inch Rob, he rarely looks it. He certainly isn't taller than Tom Hardy and might actually be edged out by him in all likelihood.

Editor Rob I think 176 is probably the most I would guess him after the more I saw of him, not convinced on the 177cm mark.

Speaking of claiming your shoe height as Joseph did when he claimed five ten, I think 90% of the world population claims the shoe height. Simply not many people are bothered to take a tape, make a mark on the wall and not many people needs to be measured at the doctor office. So what many do is going over a wall lineup or scale with height measuring at the mall and of course they measure with whatever shoes they have on. Talking with many people about this, most of them claimed they never had a chance to measure without shoes and this applies to actors as well.

Funny how here Click Here he can look near 5ft 11 because all the other guys are dropping a couple inches and he's stood up straight. On the subject Rob, what would you guess for Jonathan Nolan (the guy on the far right)? TO me he looks about 6ft 1.5, about an inch and a half taller or so than his brother.

He looks the same height as Hardy, surely no taller. 5'11 Seth Rogen and 5'10 Seth McFarlane also makes it pretty obvious that he's a 5'9 flat guy at the very best.

If Rogen is 5'11 as claimed then JGL must be a bit less than 5'9, he looks more than 2 inches shorter than Rogen in some of the scenes in "50/50" - although you couldn't really see shoe advantage in those photos.

My opinion on this guy's height has shrunk the more I see of him. There's a JGL photo retrospective because of his new (badly reviewed) directorial debut. I think he's 5'9" barefoot with good posture and that maybe only in the morning...I doubt he's anything over it. There's literally only one photo in the bunch, with Lynn Collins, where he looks a little taller than that mark.

That makes no sense; If someone's built narrower, they would look taller than they are.

I'd say his height was about right! I'm more or less the same but only I'm a quarter of an inch away from 5"10'

Does look slightly taller than Tom Hardy but Tom never seems to force his posture and JGL always seems to. i think 5'9.25 is his exact height.

He looks only an inch under Rogan here, but is really forcing his posture. He does force his posture a lot. He might only be 5'9.

He is around 5-6 to 5-7.5 people must not make their judgements until they have thoroughly analysed their subject. He is a true short+ss but seems he won't come out and admit it.

looked more like 5'8 in the full body shots with seth rogan in 50/50, which is perplexing because in some scenes where they are side by side and filmed from the chest up they look almost the same height.

He was easily taller than anne hathaway at the hollywood awards. If he is 177cm, why is he shorter than seth rogen who i think is 5 foot 9. Weird! In that 70's show he was shorter than 178cm topher grace by a bit. I always thought he was 5 foot 8.5 at most but i can live with 5 foot 9.

It's hard to tell with his body frame. Not to mention that he's fairly skinny. Someone with his body proportions automatically looks shorter. My guess is about about 5'7". Maybe 5'8", I doubt it though.

I was at Ameoba Music in Hollywood in the Soundtrack section right before Joseph Gordon Levitt's HitRecord event. I saw Celeb Actor Director Liam Stone 6ft discreetly (they somewhat resemble each other in the face) walk behind the counter and talk to JGL the back room door was open. JGL's top of his head only came up to Liam Stone's nose from what I saw. That would make JGL around five foot FIve inches at most. JGL was considerably smaller framed than Stone's lanky six foot frame. They both were pleasant and smiled to each other and Stone left and the closed the door. Later on stage when JGL was singing and performing he looked considerably taller. I don't know if it's on stage or maybe he put lifts on for the stage.

And yes, footwear can easily give you 2.5 inches. Regular Nike Air Maxes can give someone 2 inches in height. Between 2:27 and 3:03 in this clip it gives a faraway shot of him standing. Heavy heeled footwear.

Um, there's no way footwear would give him a 2.5 inches boost and I highly doubt (unless you have proof) that he was wearing lifts. I think both he and Gary Oldman are right around 5'9" on the nose.

There's no way he's 5'9.5''. He was just at the Spike TV Scream Awards with HEAVY FOOTWEAR (2 inch heels plus) and he was eye to eye with Mark Wahlberg. If he was 5'9.5'' in those heavy heeled dress shoes then he'd be right at 6 foot and would tower Wahlberg, as well as Gary Oldman and Anne Hathaway who stood beside him.

@ Richard T. That wasn't a great photo you used as proof of his height. You can't see their legs/feet in the photo. Based on the body mass of Jimmy and the thinness and posture of Joseph it looks like Joseph is standing on something so he can be in the same frame area as Jimmy. Like most people are saying, this dude is short 5'9" at best. But I'm guessing more so 5'8".

177 cm is 5´10", 178 cm is a flat-strong 5´10". But Joseph Gordon-Levitt is neither, he wears lifts alot, and barefoot height can therefor be anything from 173-175 cm, 5´9" flat would be my guess.

(Other Sam) He actually never looked as tall as DiCaprio in Inception. I highly doubt he or other people in that movie were wearing any lifts. I agree 175 cm (maybe 176 cm) is probably pretty accurate as Gordon-Levitt's barefoot height.

he seems about the same height as Cillian Murphy and Tom Hardy, maybbe a little taller so I guess between 5'9 to 5'10 is about right. His face makes up for a lack of height anyway :P

The only reason why Gordon-Levitt looks like he can pass up to 5'10'' or 5'9'' is because he's a thin person. Remember, most thin people tend to look taller then they really are just cause they contain a slim physique.

I do think this guy might be only about 5'9" even but can appear taller because of his thin frame and upright posture. He just looks too short compared to other guys, including Leonardo Di Caprio, Seth Rogen & most guys in (500) Days of Summer. Doesn't matter, though, he could be near the top of the actors in our generation

joe really is in the 5-9 to 5-10 range. but he has the long neck and slope shoulders you see on adrian brody as well. gives the illusion of being shorter, since the shoulder height is an inch or two less than it would be on a normal man with a longer torso and shorter neck in relative proportion to actual full height.

I think each actor adds one inch to their height (unless they're very small or significantly over six foot) so I guess he's probably 5'9

No way. I saw him in real life he seems about 5'8. If I'd guess though he'd probably stand at about 5'8 1/2. That seems about right. I think actors add an inch to their heights because anybody can get away with adding an inch to their height.

Okay, people. Think about this. I'm 5'8 1/2. If I really wanted to I could tell people I'm 5'10 and it would pass EASILY. And judging by a bunch of different pics with me wearing a bunch of different types of shoes you people would argue all day about me being 5'7 to 5'11 which is what happens hear. So the truth just isn't a sure thing but it always seems as though height is added. I'd say ALL actors are at least 1 to 2 inches shorter than what they are given just because they need to be perceived that way for their profession. Got it?
