he looks to have similar proportions to Lamonica Garrett, I think he's 6'2 5/8.

Editor RobBoth look solid 6ft 3 guys, I think it's hard to pick one who might have an edge.

Mahershala more arguable to be a full 187cm guy.

Actually if Mahershala is 6ft2 this guy could arguably be a little over 6ft3

Rob, Lets say you meet Mike at a comic con and he bang on 190cm impression would you still listed him 6'3 or downgrade 0.25"? Since 6'2.75" is atually 189.9cm and i know its difficult to gauge out 0.9cm rather than 0.5-0.6cm so i was wondering many 6'2.75" listed guys maybe gave you the deep impression of fraction over 189cm so you just round up 6'2.75" or if i'm wrong is it you see them 190cm on the dot and just go with 1mm round down at 6'2.75" instate of round up 6'3.

Editor RobGiven I've met Finn, Krysten and Charlie, I cannot for the life of me see Mike less than a 6ft 3, as he never looked less than it with those actors.

I think he does a good job as Luke Cage. He looks tall enough to be 6'3.

Have you seen the second season of Luke Cage, Rob? A little better than the first IMO, but the guy as Bushmaster, Mustafa Shakir I suggested before, there's a change of a strong inch difference with Colter, I'm not sure he could anywhere in the 6'1.5"-6'2" zone.

Editor RobHe rarely seems less than 6ft 3, sometimes falls into strong 6ft 3 category.

Slightly smaller frame than mine so I figured he must be in the 6'2"+ range. Not fully convinced he's a full 6'3" or a full 235 but it's possible.

A good listing. In "Luke cage" He does look tall and commanding in close-ups, but in public crowd scenes he looks tall but not towering (as comics luke cage is supposed to be 6'6")

@Grizz,
I've seen him and others who've interviewed him claim anything from 30 to 35 pounds as the amoutn of weight he'd gained for this role. How that relates to the amount he gained for his most recent previous role I imagine some of that is included in the current number. What's fairly consistent is that he claims a weight of 235 pounds most recently, which with his height seems totally believable.
I think he looks shorter than his actual height in solo pictures because he's not particularly lanky and is just thick all throughout.

He still doesn't look quite this tall in Luke Cage, but maybe they do it intentionally. He has a great frame though, lots of torso muscles to support his spine and a wide stance.

It's funny how he doesn't look tall on his own. In the picture above he could pass for a flat 6 footer. Of course once you see him next to other people you realise he's tall.
