5'10 is nonsense but he could be a weak six footer. Can look in that 5'11.5-6' range.

I would say that he would measure 6’0” out of bed and be 5’11.5 at a low perhaps. But no less than 5’11.25 from the looks of it

He’s close to 6 foot, but that’s the most he could be. He looks around 5’11.5-.75 in this pic with Sterling Brown (5’11) who rob has met before. Maybe he just has horrible posture but that Looks like a clear example of a half inch difference to me

Ice-T's height is listed as 5'11". Terrence Howard looks a lot taller than him on a Law & Order episode.

Very good actor he looks kinda tall but not much over 6 ft.
He does often act with short people so tough to tell.
No less than 5 10.5 no more than 6 and a few hairs.

He may carry himself like a 5'11 guy, but standing tall he looks every bit of 6ft. Maybe he could measure 5'11.75, but nothing under that.

At least 6' (but prob 6'1")...
He lives in my building, and I see him all the time. I am 5'10" without shoes, and he's at least a few inches taller. Definitely not less than 6'.

I think he's 5'11.
In "Fighting," he consistently looked 2-3 inches shorter than his co-star Channing Tatum (Who's listed on this site as 6'1.)

I'm going to say he is 5'11...looked about an inch shorter than Hayden Christensen who is listed here as being 6'...either that or Hayden Christensen is 6'1. And their footwear was similar in the scenes where they were standing side by side-regular dress shoes.

Ahahahahaha! This guy who runs the site is always way off. Watch an american movie instead of those british movies for once lol. This man is 5'10. Watch big momas house. My mug shot from 2006 says I'm 5'9 and I'm assuming because my of shoes were still on during the mug shot, but I'm only 5'7. Once you've been listed as a height in the computer, it will forever be in your police records. Lol this whole this cracks me up ahaha 6'0 SUURE guy.

Remember guys, Robert Downey Jr apparently wears lifts, so Terrence Howard's height does seem right at 184cms.

What scene are you looking at? I was looking at the scene in the beginning of the movie where they are walking down the hospital corridor side by side after they come from fishing. Howard still looks slightly shorter to me.

Looks a bit taller than Christensen in Awake.
So 6'0.25 (184 cm) for him,and 6'0 (183 cm) for Christensen.

I just watched Awake with Terrence and Hayden Christensen. Standing shoulder to shoulder in one scene, Hayden is taller than Terrence. I would guess that since Hayden supposed to be 6'1", Terrence is 5'11". There wasn't a huge difference but noticeable.

It was mentioned by 'Rubz' that Terrence has got to be at least 6'1 because he's taller than Tyra Banks, who was said to be 6'0. I just wanted to mention that Tyra banks is NOT 6'0. She's about 5'9 or 5'10.

I really didn't think he was that tall, but if you watch the most recent BET Awards, once he presents Chris Brown the "Best Male" category award, it would seem that he is only SLIGHTLY shorter than him. So, I'm still not really sure on this guy.

I used to think a strong 6'1". After watching Iron Man, I really can buy the 5'11" that Glenn saw. There is very, very little difference between him and Downey and while Downey's lifts were blatant, Howard was also wearing rather thick millitary boots in a few scenes as well. If he is 6', he's a weak one.

I just saw Terrance Howard and James Earl Jones on Broadway in "Cat On a Hot Tin Roof". I was surprised to see Howard was as tall as he is. He's got long legs-- 32 or 33 inseam I'd guess. During the second act, he and Jones had to stand next to each other, and there wasn't much more than a .5 or 1 inch difference. Jones was wearing low-heeled dress shoes; Howard wore one slipper and a fake leg cast. I'd say their heights are pretty accurate to what's listed here on Celebheights.

Glenn and DMeyer, both of you say that you mer him, do you think that it can be his slim body that makes you believe that he is more than 6 feet? Glenn, was wearing a hat? because if he was then that's another way to look tall, I know he's tall, I met him few times and had a nice conversation, first time i met him he was wearing normal dress shoes and he looked 185, 6-1 no questions asked, but when next time i talked to him he had cowboy boots that had 5cm or almost 2 inches and of course stood very tall, but after investigating, I believe he's 182-183 more like 6 foot.

Actually, this seems very close, after more research. Here he is with 5'11.5" Famke Janssen and 5'10.5" Ethan Hawke, and this photo is even giving him the advantage over the rest of the two because of the angle:

And with 5'8.5" Jeremy Piven (is that right?):

I can't see him as anything under 6'0"
