Nicholas Braun's Height
6ft 6 ½ (199.4 cm)
American actor known for roles in Sky High, said in moviehole interview: "Height has really taken me out of the running for a lot of roles. You know, I got this sort of baby face going on, the 6'5 lankiness maybe scares casting directors. They'll bring me back for producers and directors, but in the end I lose the roles because of the height". He also said in a video clip "I'm Six foot Six, about 210 pounds"

Six-seven is the real number. I used to make it shorter because most people hear 6’7″ or even 6’6″ and I think are a little spooked by it, like I’m going to be too tall. I’m just talking about in auditions or when I’m going for a part. So I used to sort of make it low, 6’4″, 6’5″. I’m really 6’7″ when I stand.

In this article the reporter describes Nicholas Braun as 6'7" and Matthew Macfadyen as 6'3". I'm tempted to agree. Click Here

Could be near 6'7". His posture on Succession is pretty horrible and still looks like a giant.

His father is an actor, Craig Braun, listed at 6 ft 1. My first thought was she was about 6 ft. Maybe she was 6'1 in her prime but can't see 6'2.

@Arch
How tall you think his mother is? I think around 5'11.5" based on pics, which would explain where her son got his height from. But we don't know his father's height though. Father could be around average or just tallish for all we know. Maybe similar to my situation, where my mom's 5'11" (very tall for a woman) but dad's also 5'11" (tallish for a man) and I'm a hair under 6'5.5". I inherited my height mostly from my mom.

His mother is hot! Very athletic and Slavic looking. Most be odd having a mother who's that tall and hot. This guy doesn't look an athletic type, he has some serious height though.

In this interview he actually claims that his mother is 6'2 (and father 6'1)! Click Here
With a bit less footwear and posture Click Here , she may well be at least 6', but 6'2 honestly looks a bit unbelievable though.

I think he deserved 1/4 upgrade. He look between 32-33cm taller than 5'6 Michael Angarano.

I can't vote. But i would have go with 6'6 3/4 since i estimate Conan O Brien is more a dead low 6'3 1/2 so 6'6 1/2 would be worst low for Braun.

Rob, i understand that you may have listed Nicholas at his low but to be fair he stack up a 3" with Conan O'Brien you still insisted given 6'4 (close to truth 6'3 1/2) so you should have consider either upgrade Nick to 6'7 or downgrade Conan by 1/2.

@Junior: maybe 6’6.25 lunchtime. 6’6.5 seems high for a lunch or afternoon. Rob had a decent listing before but if too low then maybe the extra 1/4” would’ve been enough not 1/2”

The upgrade is cool but Conan O'brien isn't 6'4 for sure. I still see Nicholas Braun could edge out Daniel Cudmore but stand lower than Stephen Merchant.

He can pull off 3" on Conan. I did give him 6'6 1/2 if Conan is 6'3 1/2 extreme low. But maybe 6'6 3/4 listing deserved for him.

He atually start to look 6'6 1/2 with Conan and Alan Ruck. I can see Alan Ruck converse look to be 1/2" less than Nicholas shoes Click Here look close to 6'7 with advantage shoes on a 5'10 guy like Alan. He could have gain a lucky 1/2 inch in his late 20s despite that he is 31 now. A full 6'7 or just weak 6'7 i don't think so.

I his weight quote. That is no way he was 210 pounds. Look at most 185 in Good Kids. Red State he looked kind of heavier maybe 200-205 max round up 210. Men actors will always claimed few pounds or more heavier and the female will quote their weight lower. In real was the opposite way.

Nicholas Braun, Tyler Perry, Christopher Lee, Joe Manganiello, and Howard Stern are all listed as 6 feet 5 inches according to another source, but I'm sure Nicholas is the tallest out of this group in reality.

Saw this guy for the first time in 'how to be single', thought he was probably in my range based upon how he looked beside the other actors, 6 4 - 6 5, quite surprised to see the consensus is so much taller. Guess it has a lot to do with how the movie was shot.

6'5.5 (197cm) is the absolute minimum. 6'6.5 would be the maximum. So 6'6 would be a decent listing.

As I've mentioned before, celeb women will never say they are over 5-10, even if they are like N. Kidman. Male celebs will rarely claim higher than 6-2, a few will go maybe 6-3, with very few daring to claim 6-4. Jared Padelicki is truly at least 6-5, but knew he could not get away with claiming 6-3 or shorter. After SN ends, he will still have to get acting roles.
