Richard Madden's Height
5ft 9 ¼ (175.9 cm)
Scottish actor, best known for playing Robb Stark on Game of Thrones and Mason Kane in Citadel. In film he appears in Cinderella, Rocket Man and Bastille Day. In this photo, Richard is wearing Converse whilst I'm in 1 inch Nike's, giving me about 1/3rd of an inch extra footwear. He once said "I'm sure people are constantly disappointed when they meet me in person. I'm not as tall as they expect and I probably don't look as imposing."

Hi Rob. Given that you stand near 5'8.5" midday, when this picture was likely taken, I can see Richard being 5'9". Not sure if I'd go as high as 9.25" though.

Is he too short in stature to be in the running to play Bond? that’s if he is in the running .

Editor RobA question the producers are probably mulling over. What height would be the cutoff for a James Bond? 5ft 10?

I’m going to say 174-175 in this photo, haven’t seen much of his filmography but definitely seems like a guy around that range with Rob.
As a side note, this is a remarkably bad photo of him compared to how he usually looks.

Editor RobYeah, we look more handsome in person 😃 I remember the photographer was struggling at the start of the day trying to get his lighting right with the white background...

@Cerdicc they look pretty much exactly the same to me, I would say 5’8.5 to 5’8.75 imo.

Rob, Richard looks about half an inch shorter than you here. Is 5'8 a possibility for him?

No way is this guy 5'9 even if he was barefoot next to Rob. Also too short to play James Bond as Bond has to be 5'10+ and even Craig was borderline, this guy No way!

@Rob- Let's say you were 5'8.1" when that picture was taken, and assuimg he hadbad posture.
You height 5'8.1" + 0.33" shoe disadvanatge + 0.5" bad posture = 5'8.93" ~ 5'9"
@Rob- Isn't Richard more like 5'8.75"-5'9" person?

5 ft 8.5 100%
Rob, do you think this guy would be the best looking and coolest James Bond to date? I think he fits everything. Handsome, womaniser, SCOTTISH, great actor and just all around cool guy.
I can't help but think people will say his height would be an issue if he's 5'8, because Daniel Craig is around 5'10 and considers himself short for the role. But I think times are changing, and Tom Cruise in Mission Impossible and Jack Reacher proved it doesn't matter.
Look at this dude, he has James Bond written all over him:

If you look at the bottom of the pic it looks like his knees look a little slanted so I don't think he's standing perfectly straight. I think he might be 5ft 8.5 not taking into account the footwear advantage Rob has. Since Rob has seen him in person his 5ft 9.25 listing can't be too far off but I don't think he looks 5ft 9.25 even taking into account the footwear advantage and posture. So I give him 5ft 9 flat

His hairs are looking thiker than Rob's hair here.Both are standing in around the same posture.Then even by considering Rob has 0.3 0.4 inch more shoe I hardly see Richard taller than Rob here.I even see him a slim fraction shorter than Rob here.

He needs to lose the quarter inch. Rob saw him as "a bit taller" in person, but based on the photo I can only see that as being 5ft 8.5 range, rather than near 5ft 9. But if you add on the fraction less in footwear I can buy that he measures somewhere in the 5ft 8.75-9 range..

Rob's estimate is right. Seems that the photo was taken from a lower perspective making it difficult to see the true height difference. Raise the level up a bit and there would be a near 2cm difference, account for the 1cm footwear disadvantage and Madden is standing around 176. Nothing under 5'9.

Looks 5'8.25" with Rob but Rob has a major footwear advantage. 5'9.25" I believe is legit.

Rob, is a 1 cm difference in footwear advantage really enough for you to be eye-to-eye with Richard (who's supposed to be an inch taller)?
Or frankly, is a 1 cm difference in footwear really enough for anyone to edge another person in general?

Madden looks more of a flat 174 cm to weak 5’9” guy (similar to me) when looking at some photos of him with Kit and even Sophie (her in heels most likely). However, I do trust your judgment that he may be taller than he looks in the photo since sometimes we all have looked that way before. Where was Grey Wind for the photo :)?

Even considering his footwear disadvantage, he looks 174 MAX here, though I doubt he's that short. Even in Bodyguard (which you should probably add to his credits, Rob), I think he could pull off looking a decent enough 5'9, and in fact I wonder how he managed to look barely shorter than someone like Keeley Hawes in heels, the same Keeley, who, funnily enough, doesn't look much different than him next to Rob. I mean, even in premiere photos, he holds his own quite well next to her: Click Here

At most 176 range, a chance of 175, but 177 is too much.

I wonder if there is anything in the Bond rumours. Traditionally they go for a 6'1'' to 6'2'' guy for Bond but Daniel Craig has shown that you don't need to be physically imposing in real life to have the big screen presence for the role.

Editor RobI think it's more likely he dropped a fraction in height, although it's not impossible for a guy with a smaller head to appear taller - it can be a benefit to appearing taller.

Most 5'9" / 5'10 guys on this site look shorter than they claim. Madden' case is quite opposite: The more pics I see, the more I believe he could well pass for a 5'10" guy.

Rob - perhaps you are fondly remembering the Converse sneakers of old, because these days Nike owned Converse provide all of their sneakers with Nike Lunarlon insoles which give significantly more cushioning (and elevation) than the flimsy flat insoles of days gone by. I think you are underestimating the lift gained from modern Converse despite the fact they look the same externally. Whatever this guy’s real height is, it is far too low to play 007.......

Rob, even with a slightly bigger shoe, i dont see how he appears taller than you by 2 or 3 centimeters. I watched Bodyguard on netflix and he didnt appear small next to his tall co-star. Of course he didnt appear tall either, but since you stood next to him and it looks like THAT i dont know why you give him that height.

@Rick1 we do read, even if he does have less footwear he’d still edge rob out if he was this listed height...rob is probably 5’8 1/8-25 in this photo and with the inch shoe he’d be 5’9 1/8-.25 range so let’s say 175.75cm. Do that to Madden and he’d get 178.4cm in shoes, subtract 0.4inches which gets 177.4cm in shoes so he’s not even 5’10 in shoes, he’s a mm off 5’9 7/8. To me, Madden doesn’t look 1.65cm taller in this photo with Rob but I’m sure he’s taller in person. Photos are deceiving for height.

Average guess is fair, based on the photo. Looks a weak 5'9 to me however he has a solid 2 inches over Kit Harrington, so I'll peg him at 5'9 flat, nothing more.

Don't know how anyone could say he's above 5'8.5 now that the photo with Rob is out. Clearly looks shorter than Rob in the photo and most likely no taller than Rob when taking into consideration the hairstyle and footwear differences.
Richard only appears taller than he is because of good proportions and puffy hair but when standing next to Rob, it becomes definite he's below 5'9.

@ Nik - Can you imagine having a school teacher called 'Mr Madden'? I don't think many kids would want to mess with him, do you, but now that they don't allow corporal punishment in schools, (they did in my day - and then some!), I wonder if the youngsters would be put off by a bad-tempered Mr Madden... who measures in at almost 6ft9!
I will go for a foot less for this Mr Madden!
5ft8.75!

@rob, do you tell people you're 5'9 or 5'8.25?
Editor RobIf anybody ever asked me in the past - and we are talking a handful of occasions since launching this site - I would just say 5ft 8, or 173cm...but strangely, many Brits aren't as clued up on metric as feet/inches.
Even Jenny is very unaware when I mention an actor is 170cm, she's no clue what that is 'Feet and inches Rob!' she tells me 😂
She falls into the category of somebody who would never look up the height of an actor on a search engine. 😮

In that photo Rob and Richard look exactly the same height to me, so given Rob's footwear advantage that would make Richard no more than 5'8.5. To be 5'9.25 he would have to have at least three quarters of an inch over Rob in that photo but he just doesn't!

I'm really not seeing over an inch here. Taking into account the footwear advantage he looks 173.4 at a first glance. I suppose with the camera angle he could just about edge out 175 but I don't see where the extra cm comes from.

Don't you think he should be downgraded to 5'8.75" (175 cm)? Based on all the comments below, it appears that almost everyone agrees that he is only half-inch taller than you, which would put him in the weak 5'9" territory. You both look the same height in the picture, and if you are to take into account the difference in shoes, that would mean he's only half-inch taller than you at most. Since you're 5'8.25", he'd be 5'8.75".

175cm Max maybe even 174.5cm
Never thought he was a shortish guy on Game Of Thrones always bought his 1.8m listed height. Just goes to show the difference of heights on and off screen

Well, if he looked similar to Gemma-who's like 174.2- with a cm less footwear then that puts him at 5'9 flat; maybe a little more than if this was done at night.
With this and him with other celebs, I'd say 9.25 is a good estimate for Richard. Although Rob has observed that he's tucked somewhere between 175-176; he can pass for 177 in some pics with celebs.
Also seems to be a pleasant fellow but look more average in person; a short beard wouldn't hurt him.

You two look bang-on the same height in that picture. I literally see no difference at all in that picture. Now, if you are to take into account your 1 cm shoe advantage, then he is exactly 1 cm taller than you. 174-175 cm would be his height. I don't see 176 cm for him.

Yeah, it is quite "clear" he isn't over 174 in the picture... Maybe the fact he's got a small(er) head fooled you into believing he's slightly taller when he really isn't (or at least it looks like that)! That or a couple of cms went lost, again...

Editor Rob it is always possible I thought he was a fraction taller, but overall he can look a decent 5ft 9 with other people.

Looks same height as Rob in this picture looking at the top of their heads.
Shoulderheight is also equal.
Judging by this pic and adding the footweardisadvantage he´s 174-174,5cm 5´8.5"-5´8.75".

Even factoring out the height gain from your shoes, how on earth is he 5'9 in that picture? I know he's looked generally 176-177 but hes legit tiny in this picture. looks strong 171-172

Rob, I'm very confused. In that picture you both are EXACTLY the same height. And, if we are to take into account footwear, then he is at the very most 0.4 inches taller than you. If you are 5'8.25", then Richard is at most 5'8.75". So, why is his height overstated by half an inch?

well you are the height authority here, but you are the very same height as him in the picture
so take the 0.4, let's make it 0.5 inch to round up and you have him at 5'8.5
you can put 5'9 if you are unsure about it, but i don't see the 3cm difference between you two

Rob you look exactly the same height, did he drop some posture in the pic?? Because even considering footwear, i can't see anything over 174 for this guy...Maybe 176 in sneakers?

Editor Rob the closer someone is, it actually can be trickier at times - I thought he was a fraction taller than me plus 0.4 inch less sneaker and so nearer 5ft 9...

Great picture, again, Rob!
But honestly? You guys look very similar (if anything, you do look a hair taller)... Add 1 cm for less footwear and he looks more 174 range than anywhere over 5'9!
And, even if i didn't look that much at him, i thought 5'9.5 was quite a good guess, so i'm a bit suprised he looks so short with you!

Editor Rob I did feel Richard was a bit taller, probably very similar to the girl I measured just over 5ft 8.5 (Gemma in youtube video), so add on shoes and probably right around 5ft 9...5ft 9.25 is the most I'd guess.
Sam said on 25/Jul/16
I always had the impression for this guy being a weak 5'9, and this photo proves it. Heck even Rob looks a bit taller and yes I have noted Rob having the advantage in shoe but still think if he was over 5'9 would have to look taller than Rob.

All you have to do is look at how short Madden's arms and legs are to know he is nowhere near 5'11''. That heavy armour, high heeled boots (GOT) and the illusion that TV and movies make by using platform sets to convince people that an actor appears much taller than he really is. I've seen both Kit Harrington and Richard Madden in personal appearances and they are short So, why the big lies. It's their acting talents that count NOT their height.

Rob, how can you explain this picture: Click Here
I mean, if Sam Claflin is 1.80m, than Madden is no taller than 1.73m in this picture. Anyway, it practically confirms that madden 100% isn't taller than 1.75. So why not 5'9?

Wow, his height is listed elsewhere at 5'11! I knew he didn't look near that (says Harry Lloyd is, and he's much taller in pictures) but I didn't know he was that far from 1.80.. He is so handsome so why do I really prefer tall men so much? Love when a guy is over 6'3.. (I'm 5'3) My grandpa was 6'8, I always wonder if that's where the height worship thing comes in..?
King Robb is still my favorite though! Those eyes and cheekbones, wow.

Who says Prince Charming needs to be 6'3. Times are changing, Cinderella (Lilly James) is 5'7. And this guy is only about 2.25-2.5 inches taller than her. In 1800s when the tale was written, i think a 5'6-7 guy could have easily passed as Prince Charming and Cinderella would have been 5'1-2. As for Richard 5'9.5 currently seems fine, but i would not rule out 5'9.25 though.

Strach that. He's actually dropping a good inch, but Jenna's footwear is not as thick as I had originally though.

Has a good 4 inches on Jenna in the pic, and she has at least 2.5 inches more footwear. And he's not even standing straight; I believe he's dropping about 0.5 inches here. Could be 5'10, but he isn't lower than listed.

He looks a solid 2-2.5 inches shorter than Sam Claflin who's listed on this site at 5'11, with a number of users arguing he's a weak 5'11 to 5'10 . I think a round 5'9 for Richard is more accurate, maybe even a hair under without sneakers on.
