I don't think he was too short for bane tbh. Big shoes and clever cameras made him look fine. Why do people say he's too short and never mention Bale? Batman was 6'2 in the comics and Bale is 5'11-6' range.
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Maybe because 6f2 is alot closer to 6ft, then 6f8 is to 5f9.
I think Hardy did a good job as Bane. But they should've reallty cast someone taller (6ft2+), the casting didn't make sense.

In the Batman encyclopedia it says:
Tom Hardy stands around 5ft9 where Christian Bale is over 6ft. Since Bane towers over Batman in height in the comics, special film techniques were used to make Hardy's stature and figure appear larger and imposing. In particular, three-inch lifts were added to Hardy's boots to make him equal in height to other tall characters.
Bane is 6'8 in the comics, Hardy is 5'9 but was awesome in the TDKR, Nolan made him look a lot taller in the movie.

@just a question
you can't use base 10 when using feet and inches. this is a common mistake with people. 2.54cm in an inch,30.48 inches in a foot. therefore 176cm is 5'9.29. Obviously no one can tell spot on whether someone is 175 or 176cm but we can make good assumptions based on their height next to others and from observing many heights.

one feet is how much in centimeter?
when I read here 5ft9 is 176cm?
I thought one feet is 30.48 cm.
If thats true, 176cm is only 5ft8 (or more likely a 5ft7.x)
BTW how can you guys say a person is 5ft8 or "clearly" a 5ft9.25 etc.?
I can not tell if a person I do see on the screen is one or two centimeter larger than another one.
Hell, even if I'm 176cm tall (or small) when I woke up I will be smaller, easily 1cm in the evening...

I really don't understand how some people think he's 5'8 range. He's clearly a 5'9 guy(possibly even 5'9.25-5 range).

well for me Bale did look a little short to play Batman.Him walking next to Morgan Freeman .I thought to myself "man Bale looks short". Bruce Wayne in comics is a really tall & handsome guy,the batman is described as "huge" his size intimidates his opponents. In comics hes the same height as superman for crying out loud(6'2-6'3 range).So that bothered me.Bale in the Batsuit looked taller though like 6'2(maybe lifts) so it fits him.

Dean 5ft 9.25 said on 20/Sep/12
he doesnt appear short to me but he appears on the low average side so hes not a full 5'10.
Hes not even as high as 177cm flat, if were talking at night. IMO the possible range for him is 175.5cm -176.5cm at night and probably just says 5'9 for that reason.
If he was like 175.5-176cm then a guy who doesnt care would probably round down as hes much closer to 5'9 but if he was 176.5cm+ at night(meaning 177cm ish in the afternoon) he would claim 5'10 without a doubt, even if he isnt bothered about height.

5'9 I dont understand?! Hes the same height as batman in the dark knight rises and it says here christian bale is 6'0 and in the Dark knight rises database the Bane character is 6'1.He was way too short to play Bane. Good actor though didnt know he was 5'9.

Not true Bane is actually very intelligent character and has the accent Th did a very good job he must've worked his butt off to get that physique for the movie. That role took lot of talent and he was a large part of the movie.

Everyone keeps using Bane as a reference. Look at the premier photos and how much shorter he is than the rest of the cast 5'9" seems pretty generous. It's almost like thinking Mark Whalburg is 6' when he's like 5'6"

I've managed to see his live Bane costume full figure display in e shopping mall few weeks back, the figure's height was about my height, maybe slightly taller by 1 inch. I'm abt 5'10. So I'd say he's definitely a solid 5'9", maybe a bit more.

I think you're right. It's no mystery that Nolan wants to hire British actors in lead roles but he could pick Ray Stevenson or Craig Fairbrass - a legit 6'3" guys to play Bane. Great actors too.

@Tyler, you've got to be kidding with Hardy only having a 1 inch heel. They are cross training shoes, those have pretty hefty cushioned heels like New Balance have. Besides, Hardy is closer to the camera and standing straight. Pearce on the other hand is behind him slightly, and bending to one side. AND, Hardy already said he is 5'9", now why would he downgrade himself? That wouldn't make any sense. Telling people you're taller than you really are is possible but I highly doubt you would downgrade your height.

@Marky, well Guy Pearce is listed at 5'10.25" on here, which is entirely accurate IMO. Now, Guy's shoes have about an inch, perhaps 0.75" although it is kinda hard to tell from the angle of the pic. Pearce is reaching 5'10.75"-5'11" in those shoes. And Tom's shoes are not 1.5", but they are typical 1" shoes. Guy Pearce is only a 0.25" max taller than Tom Hardy in the photo I posted. In their shoes: Tom Hardy: 5'10.5", Guy Pearce: 5'10.75-5'11". Tom Hardy needs to be upgraded back to 5'9.5".

@Tyler, look at Hardy's shoes man. Those look like cross training shoes. Like New Balance or something. Those are a good 1 inch, maybe 1.5 inch in heel. Guy Pearce is in minimal heel, less then an inch. Probably 0.5 max. So Absolute MAX for Hardy is 5'9". I'm still set on solid 5'8.5"

Hardy was probably 5'11 or 6' as Bane and Bale who is already 5'11 or a weak 6' was probably 6'1 or 6'2 in the batman costume. Using camera angles they balanced them out to make them even but Hardy had to be wearing lifts.

@Ralph i don't know if you've seen the film? but hardy was amazing in it. Even with his mask on you could still see the expressions is his eyes and his body movement. If you want to see a bodybuilder in that role watch batman and robin.
Also yes hardy looked massive as bane i stand by my estimate that he looked a good 6'4" when standing next to most of the other figures ie dagget, his henchmen etc.
Only when fighting batman did he seem more around 6'1" likely due to the limitations of trick filming during a fight scene.

@Sentinel,
4 inches shoes? are we talking shoes or high heels man xD? I mean, they definitely shouldve found a taller guy to play Bane especially since he was going to have his face covered so who cares about it. But camera angles, blah blah blah, thats what made Hardy looked the same height as Christian.
Point blank, Any big and bulky/muscular white guy outside of any gym in the world could play that part. I think that role was a lottery game and he won xD

Bane definitely looked kinda small to me in TDKR. Anyone who thinks he looked "huge" was fooled by almost constant camera tricks, i.e. lots of short actors, ANGLES, Tom Hardy flexing his traps constantly (god, does that really fool people?), wearing 3-inch lifts, wearing bulky jackets/clothing, having a naturally small frame to begin with that only looked big from 3 inches away, his small head making his body look bigger, etc.

CGI+ camera angles + lifts = Bane. We can clearly see in set pictures that his arms, for instance, aren't as big as they are in the movie. The scene with Dagget he was clearly standing on a higher level, but that guy is in no way 6 feet tall.

yeh he looked big in TDKR. no wonder people cant guess heights well with movie magic. 5'8.5 ChrisD? nope, he's 5'9.

Glad to see I wasn't the only one impressed by the camera angles in the new movie. They were genuinely able to make him look tall without it looking ridiculous. That said, I was kind of disappointed with how much they changed the background of his character. I mean, I realize a character like Bane is hard to pull off in real life without it coming off as silly/campy, but for even as much weight as he put on the strength displayed by the character didn't feel right if that makes any sense.

Although wearing 3-4 inch lifts in TDKR, he looked gigantic, a good 6'4'' in some scenes and maybe 1" or 2 taller than Bale (batman) in other scenes. Very impressed by the camera angles, and yes Duhon, hopefully that shuts up the critics. Hardy is 5'8.5''. Amazing how they made him look so tall in the movie!

He's significantly shorter than 6ft0.5in Chris Pine. 5ft9- 5ft9.25in range is realistic for him.

They made him look huge in The Dark Knight Rises mostly with camera angles. I'd say they made him look 6'4" or so he towered over the other actors around him. I think that shut up some critics of his casting.

I don't think he is 1,75.I mean he is able to clearly look Christian Bale eye to eye in the set pics and as Batman he is little over 6'1 standing at almost 6'2. I'm aware Hardy uses three inches lifts on the movie but with 1,75 he would be towered a bit by Bale. I must admit thought that in these knew TDKR premiere pictures he looks rather small, but I think he is nothing below 1,77. That's only my opinion though. And Levitt does wear lifts in most movies, that and his slim figure are what makes him look taller than he actually is, while Hardy does not use lifts in most movies and events, he only used here because it would be ridiculous to have Bane being smaller than Batman.

He used to post on his own message board back around the UK release of 'Bronson.' In one topic a troll insulted him, and he jokingly challenged the guy to a fight and described himself as "5 ft 8." I would assume the 5 ft 9.5 listing for him is either incorrect or due to a boost from shoes, as the man himself claims to be 5'8.

No. Watch the movie again. Indeed, in some sceens he looks huge, due camera angles and his impressive body physique. But in other shots, when you see his full body frame it's obvious that Hardy has rather average height - 5'9 / 5'10.
I think that Batman Raises filmmakers did a good job making him as tall as Batman, but sill - imho - Craig Fairbrass would be a better Bane.

5'9", 198 lbs on his biggest day with a little extra fat. And the fact of the matter is he DOES have small hands, short arms and legs, and narrow shoulders. That's just the way he's built, Joel. @Natalie: The Warrior didn't really show any good shots of his physique; mostly in big bulky jackets and showing nothing below his traps. I would say his frame is smaller than average.

So i got answers to the questions in muscle hes 198 pounds standing 1.82 with lifts on can he act yes can he break the bat YES are they gonna use different camera angles ofcourse.. So to all haters like he said in the trailer when go see the dark knigth rises you have my permission to die... strong line sets the tone.. see ya

5'9 seems more accurate for him and Joseph Gordon-Levitt,but I guess Rob gave them 0.5in more than Gary Oldman,due to him being almost 54yrs old,so I guess its fair enough.

People saying Tom Hardy is not 180 lbs really are wrong. He really looks like a beast. And he is absolutely not even close to fat.. I would say he's about 190 lbs, maybe a bit more, at the height of 5ft9.

Gary Oldman looks exactly Tom's and JGL's height,so either he's "177cm" maybe 5'10 at his peak,or the 3 of them are legit 5'9 and nothing more...I don't understand why you put the one at 2cm. lower while the 3 of them seem to be exactly the same height?

@Paula e:
I don't really think you know what 10-12% body fat looks like; that's LEAN, as in abs clear and veins visible on every muscle. Tom Hardy was SLIGHTLY below average in bodyfat in The Warrior; I would guess 15.5-17%.
They mostly showed his flexed traps throughout the movie and in the brief shots of everything else, he didn't look lean at all to me. His body fat also showed in his face and neck (puffy and soft).
He brought one word to mind for me: dirty bulk.

Also his body fat is not "very high". Probably 10-12%. A lot of dudes would kill for that...

"I'll bet hardy was bang on 185 in warrior"
@anon: Hardy has very short arms and legs, and camera angles were used extensively in that movie to his benefit. They hardly ever showed his entire body in the frame except for when he was wearing bulky jackets.
He also has a high body fat; without that padding, he'd look even scrawnier. I would be VERY surprised if he was 185 on his heaviest day. I look at the bodybuilding.com forum all the time... And Hardy is simply not what a 5'10" 185 lb. man looks like.

@TheBounder: "Huge"? Really? The man is clearly short, narrow-shouldered, short-legged and short-armed, with small hands and feet. His arms aren't particularly muscly either. Camera-angles, character, and a high body fat also contribute to his "largish" appearance. In The Warrior, he was bigger than he was in Bronson and was fighting middleweight (171-185 lbs... I'm guessing he was barely 171).
The one thing I can credit to his physique is his traps: either they're strong, or he knows how to flex them. I'm still guessing it's mostly the latter.

C. Nolan did so well with his first 2 BATMAN movies im worried about this. Im optamistic about this cause Chsistian Bale isnt 6ft5 like the comic book Bruce Wayne and they have done well with that. Why coudnt they have used the guy from the movie Troy. That dude that got shanked by B.Pitt at the very first fight scene in that movie"
I completely agree with you man! Bane is supposed to be this absolutely huge unstoppable figure - they should have had the guy from Troy play Bane - Nathan Jones is his name - would've been amazing, he's close to 7 feet tall. Hardy is 5'9" and Bale is like 6'1"...not sure how this is gonna work out. Hope they do some CGI work like they did for X-men and the Juggernaut.

Why coudnt they have used the guy from the movie Troy. That dude that got shanked by B.Pitt at the very first fight scene in that movie

How exactly do you tower over someone when you're 2 inches taller?

Bane is supposed to be 6'8, maybe they will use some tricks or camera angles to make him appear bigger. They did the same with Michael Clark Duncan in "The Green Mile", he is 6'4 and looked 7'0 in the movie.

Nice guy but not tall or even average, he is more like 5'7. He has some major lifts on the TDKR set.

Yeah, he's close to 5' 10". It's a good height but I still wonder how he's gonna play Bane in the Dark Knight Rises...

I think Tom Hardy was being accurate with his 5-9 claim in the bronson video below, here he is with 5-8/9 patrick stewart Click Here
here with Joel (5-11) Click Here i agree with 5-9.75 as a morning height. but i reckon most of the time he walks around closer to 5-9.25

Now that I think about it, this height is perfect for him. Closer to 5'10", but still in the 5'9" range.

Tyler, I actually saw a movie clip of him where he looked a full incher shorter than Joseph Gordon-Levitt. The guy's a changling.

I think it's his posture. In some photos, he looks about an inch taller than Joseph Gordon-Levitt. In others, they seem to be the same height. I think he's a solid 5'10", and 5'9" with bad posture.

He looks Shorter, like 5'7. But I can believe he is 5'9. Kind of Stocky even when slim he seems broad. He'd be a great Wolverine lol Great Actor!

i don't know why but at average height he doesn't look average/short to taller actors. even in that pic with chris pine he still doesn't look short it's weird. i guess its the opposite effect to people that are like 6'0 but look short.

Looks about the same height as 5'10 Joseph Gordon-Levitt. I think that's what both of them should be listed as.

I posted the the link, he says 5.9, an you list him 5.9 + so he is rounding his height on a downgrade, and you are giving him some extra height

If Gerard Butler is a legit 6'2 (or close) then the pic Jeebs posts is pretty good proof Hardy is in the 5'10 range. If he stood up straight he could easily get to 5'10, being 4 inches shorter than Gerard Butler. He definitely doesn't look any shorter than 5'9 to me. He's just stocky which often makes actors look like their 5'7 or less.

The ground looks sloped, and they were mid stride, hardly conclusive.

He looked tall in Bronson, this is really strange. I thought he was 6 feet, lowest 5'11''.

I have posted here before but it seems it was not added, as previously stated he taught me at drama school and is 5'8" absolute maximum, more realistic is 5'7"
