I’ve seen a lot of his earlier (as well as later) films, I think he could have conceivably hit 6’0.5” peak but no higher.

Tommy Lee was a very strong 6ft dude in his day, 183.5-184cm zone and easily hit 6ft1 first thing in the morning. I think Dmeyer has a point, taller than Hanks at the Oscars and could look similar to Costner in JFK.
We shouldn’t discount the full 6ft0½ as a possible peak.

@192cm Leprechaun
Wouldn’t being an inch taller than Jim Carrey make Tommy Lee Jones 6’2.5 though or am I missing a joke?

Very strong 6 footer at peak. 6’ is prudent while 6’0.25 is fairer. Today very close to 5’11. This listing is fine

Jones is a perfect example of 6'. He was the tallest actor at the premiere of Batman Forever in June 1995. He was an inch taller than Jim Carrey.

You can notice that he is tall in the movie the "man of the house" where he is surrounded by cheerleaders who look small next to him. Also in Japanese advertisements, he towers over others.

185 morning, 183 night probably, or a little over 6'0. I thought he was about average height until I saw more of his films, he looked fairly tall when younger.

🎂🎁 Happy 3/4 Century Birthday! 🎁🎂
A Very Happy 75th Birthday to Tommy Lee Jones, one actor who always cuts a powerful figure when acting. I always assumed he was pretty tall, and 6ft and a quarter inch certainly cuts the mustard.
Have a fabulous day, Tommy!
6ft0.25 peak and an inch less today, which is not at all bad going for a 75-year-old.

I would’ve guessed just over an inch shorter than Will Smith in Men In Black (Tommy would’ve been 50 at the time of release) so 186-186.5 for Will and 183-183.5 for Tommy is believable. That said he may have lost a tiny bit before 50, some guys do

I'd peg Tommy Lee Jones at 6', he edged Tom Sizemore by an inch, who was close to 5'11" back in the day & was slightly taller than Javier Bardem, also listed at 5'11", based on that six foot even would seem pretty accurate.

Rob, could something like 6ft0⅜ be argued for his peak?
I know you've said you're gonna go easy on the eighths, but it does line up well with that info about his bio giving either 6ft0¼ or 6ft0½. I think either of those you could make a case for.

Editor RobIt is possible that he was mentioned as a 'fraction' over 6ft, which could be interpreted as 6ft 1/4 or 1/2...or even 3/8ths! Somewhere within 6ft to 6ft 1/2 as his peak is fair

The rare 6'0.25" listed actor who doesn't try to claim 6'1". Jones also seems somehow more ornery than his already ornery characters.

I just found 183cm next to Tommy's name on one of the Birthday sites I visit, but of course, at 74, Tom is bound to have lost a bit by now and two-and-a-half centimetres/one inch down at his age is extremely good going indeed, so well done to him!

I think he was an honest 6’/183 cm guy for sure at peak. 6’0.25? I am not sure. Actually I think he was in the 6’ until the middle years of the first decade and then he started loosing something. I would say 6’/183cm peak and 5’11/180cm today.

The listings for Kevin Costner 6'1" and Tommy Lee Jones 6'1/4" pretty much match how I see those two.
TLJ, at least to me, is one of those guys that, in his own right, doesn't give off as tall an impression as he actually is. Perhaps because his head is bit larger than average and his build is pretty solid. Measure him up though against other celebs of reasonably understood height and he reconciles to a shade over 6 feet pretty much every time. Another + 1/4" is not impossible for 6'1/2" but 6'1/4" seems good.
He seems like one of those celebs who presents as a very reliable measuring stick to judge other celebs by.
Some interviews, TLJ comes across a bit surly and reticent, like his character Agent K in MIB. Art imitating life? Very economical in his responses and seems he doesn't suffer fools gladly. Whatever he does say makes simple sense and I always had the impression that he that he is probably very intelligent and more footloose and fancy free than he lets on. Internet credits him with an IQ of 135 - can't vouch for its veracity though.

I think it still cannot be ruled out that Tommy could have had 6ft 1/2 in his prime. Here are some photos from 1991 in which Kevin Costner seems taller than Tommy: Click Here Click Here Click Here
But if you look at their footwear, it turns out that Costner had much thicker shoes: Click Here Click Here
Then in 1994, when Tommy was bald, he looked taller than Tom Hanks despite Hanks's thick hair: Click Here Click Here Click Here Click Here Click Here Click Here Click Here Click Here Click Here Click Here Click Here Click Here Click Here Click Here Click Here Click Here
Tommy looked well over 6 feet next to Hanks and Costner in the first half of the 90's. Rob, maybe 6ft 1/2, as with Travolta and Denzel, is still a arguable figure for Tommy?

Below James says "he's 5'11" -- that's the height listed on his ID in the 1994 film "Blown Away". I'd give him 5'11.5" at best in his prime. I think the article where he claims he's 6'0.25" are a height-in-shoes height. I don't think, however, unlike Harrison Ford or Clint Eastwood, he's lost much, if any, height.

"And a quarter inch?" I'll bet he added that to let us know that his six foot claim was not a round-off.
Mount Everest was surveyed at 29,000 feet exactly, so the surveyors reported the official height as 29001 feet, to dispel the notion that they had rounded off the true height, or had been two lazy to measure it to more than two significant digits.

Ford was about 50 years at the time. lets say he already lost half inch back then and was 6 foot. then jones was somewhere in this listed range. max what he ever could have been was 6 foot half inch and shortes possible was 6 foot flat if he was not taller than ford. but he looked taller. i think the listing is fair. but my personal belief is that he was somewhere in beetwen 6 foot 1/4 and 6 1/2.

I agree, Sean73...
IMO in 1997 TLJ was still a flat 6'0" guy (is what he did look at times next to a 6'1.25-1.5" Will Smith). Considering he was at the beginning of 50s in the last years of 1990s, there's a good chance he has still lost just a small amount from his peak height so 6'0.25" as peak is legitimate!
Today 5'11.5" is fair because a shrinkage of 2 cms at almost 70 years old is normal!

I'm watching U.S. Marshals and he seems to be a full 4 inches taller than Robert Downey jr. I always thought RDJ was short but not that short. I would give TMJ a flat six foot in 1998, and RDJ 5'8". RDJ must be wearing 2" lifts these days.

Actually i don't think he was a "genuine" or "strong" 184 cms.
I usually consider a genuine or strong 184 cms guy someone like Bradley Cooper, who gets up usually at 186 cms and close the day at 184 cms (in the range 183,8-184,2 cms).
I think TLJ was more 183,5 cms in the afternoon. He maybe got up at 6'1 and then he closed the day at 6'0.2-0.25" which Made him a "very strong" 6' or (it's much better) a honest 6'0.25" guy.
I think he (very very) rarely went under 183 cms, i guess he was averagely 183,3-183,7 cms in the late afternoon.

I think that there were 3 solids cms between TLJ and WS. If tommy was 182 cms as a lots of people there say, then will can't be taller than a flat 6'1" and actually i don't think so.
At Times (1997) TLJ was at least 6' with a 6'1.25-1.5" will smith.

In the first MIB in a lot of scenes he did look max 1-1.25" shorter than Will Smith, with similar shoes and posture...I think at times he was 6'0-0.25"...today of course he has lost something but he does look 4 weak inches taller than bob DeNiro who I suppose is in the 172 cms range.
As I said before, the listing is the fairest!

I had no idea he was strong 6footer at his prime! In "Under Siege" he seemed slightly shorter than Nick Nolte, but he always held a goofy posture throughout the film.

In conclusion, I think TLJ had at first the same size as Alex: strong 183 cms, so his daily height was variable between 183,5 cms and 183 cms, but with a "stop loss point" at 6'0"...
I think today he has lost a good half inche or a bit more, so likely he's in the 5'11.5" range...
Good estimate, rob! XD

Rob can you add a photo? Preferably not with his dodgy dyed hair in Coal Miner's Daughter LOL! He actually had a minor role in Love Story! Good selection Sam, thanks. Really looks easily a foot taller than Sissy Spacek in Coal Miner's Daughter. In one scene he is hunched over and folded in half and Sissy on higher ground to kiss her.

I think this current height is a good listing. Tommy has a reputation for sometimes being as mean as a rattlesnake but he's a good actor who brings gravitas to his role...good actor that is except for in Batman Forever.
In his credits, Rob, could you add Rolling Thunder, Coal Miner's Daughter, Lonesome Dove, Lincoln, Under Siege (the best performance anyone ever gave in a Steven Seagal movie), JFK and In the Valley of Elah, might need to drop the middling U.S. Marshals.

For Jones I would definitely give him a 6 feet peak!
May have lost a bit with age, but not very much. Seeing him at the Golden Globe Awards next to 6'1 Kevin Costner he could still be around 1.81m.
In U.S. Marshals he looks at least 6 feet tall. Great movie and actor, by the way!

I think he's dipped below the six foot mark at 67 years old...I suspect he and Harrison Ford are around the same rough 5'11" today. He didn't particularly tall in Lincoln. Next to Dave Costabile, who I think is a strong 5'10" as he looked a couple of inches shorter than the Flight of the Conchords guys, in Lincoln, Jones looked around the same height.

I read somewhere that said he was 177cm. I didn't believe it. In us marshals, he makes robert downey jr look 5 foot 7. Much taller than wesley snipes who is 172cm but looked taller than downey jr in us marshals. I thought wesley snipes was close to 180cm. He looks huge on screen. 182cm is solid. Will smith was probably wearing some lifts next to Tommy lee jones.

in the fugitive he had the same height as Harrison Ford! Now, in a pic Ford was around 6'0.5-0.75 but, considering he was with shoes on and there could be alittle percentage of errore, i think he was 182-3 cm barefeet! I think, considering Jones was 46 so at his peak, yet, he was 5 ft 11.75 in/182 cm, max six feet! Today he probably lost a good 0,75 in/2 cm

Well he was a tad shorter than 6ft0.75in(184-185cm) Harrison Ford, But still a legit 6 footer in his prime. He also seems to have done well with age, as he still looked 6ft even just a few years ago, though at age 65 I think he is a fraction under 6ft by the evening.
In a nutshell:
Peak height:6ft0.25in(183-184cm range)
Today:5ft11.75in(minimum 5ft11.5in by the evening time)
Anything under 6ft for Tommy Lee at peak is absurd, even though I don't think he was quite the 6ft0.5in Rob has him listed at, and even today he wakes up 6ft.
And to Jiao: Saying he has lost only a quarter of an inch at age 65 is absurd man. I mean, come one now...

No on TLJ and BDT. Tommy Lee Jones was 6' and change at peak, and he looked this as recently as 2007 in NO COUNTRY FOR OLD MEN. As for BDT, there are so many people who just don't believe him to be tall--the guy slouches quite a bit, but when he stands with good posture, it's beyond clear just how tall he is.

rob i just noticed you downgraded tom sizmore too 179cm... in natural born killers tommy lee jones had no more than 1 inch on sizmore and no way in hell was there 2 inches between them granted maybe tom does not have the best posture.
i really think you should find time too rent out and watch the film rob becuase seriously tommy lee jones looked no higher than 182cm next too tom.
might you consider downgrading his peak rob?
this could also mean that will smith is under 187cm even though i thought he was at least 6'1.

rob i just noticed you downgraded tom sizmore too 179cm... in natural born killers tommy lee jones had no more than 1 inch on sizmore and no way in hell was there 2 inches between them granted maybe tom does not have the best posture.
i really think you should find time too rent out and watch the film rob becuase seriously tommy lee jones looked no higher than 182cm next too tom.
might you consider downgrading his peak rob?
this could also mean that will smith is under 187cm even though i thought he was at least 6'1.
Editor Rob I'm still unsure if Sizemore has lost height, but I met Tom and if he's over 179cm at 50 I'd be shocked.
DejaVu said on 28/Sep/11
Due to the fact that he has great posture, he can pull off looking 6'1 in his younger days. He did looked the same height as Clint Eastwood 12 years ago. He was probably 184cm during that time. Nowadays, he can still look 6 foot but there is more of a chance that he is slightly under this mark.

i think he was at peak a solid 5 ft 11.5-75 (182 cm) and nowadays he's around 5 ft 11 (180 cm).
In the fugitive he looks a good cm shorter than a soli 6 ft (183 cm) Harrison Ford and in MiB he looks a god 1,5 in/ 4 cm shorter than Will Smith (who i suppose is around 6 ft 1.25 (186 cm)) so 182 is perfect for him at his peak!

tommy lee jones never look 5ft11.5 or more. i believe today he is 5ft11 flat at peak 5ft11.25 , samuel l jackson was 183-184cm nowadays and 6ft1 peak. bill russell was easily 6ft9 and had almost a head taller than "6ft3?" uncle samuel l jackson. even 6ft2 for samuel l jackson was a fishy stuff..

I have to say he doesn't look a full 6' to me. Had a max of 2 inches over 5' 9.5 Connie Nielsen in William Friedkin's The Hunted. In my opinion, at 64-65, he's 5' 11.5 (182 cm). He was 6' or potentially pushing 184 cm at peak.

I suspect he's lost a little more height because in the recent "The Sunset Limited" Samuel L. Jackson appears to have at least 3 inches on him and we know from recent appearances next to John Cusack and The Rock, Jackson barely seems to hit 6'2" anymore.

Morning (out of bed)= 6'0.5" (1.84 m)
After 1,5-3 hrs= 6' (1.83 m)
After 5-10 hrs= 5'11.75" (1.82 m)
Today, i belive he's not over 5'11.5" (1.81,5 m).

I just saw the movie US Marshals with Tommy Lee Jones and Robert Downy Jr. and I wanted to know the height of Tommy Lee Jones. I checked and found out that the belief is TLJ is 5'10" to 6' ft. tall. Robert Downy Jr. is 5'8" and in the movie TLJ was looking Robert Downy Jr. in the eye!!! TLJ is NOT 6 foot or 5'10" more like 5'8" to 5'9".

In US Marshalls looked between 5'11-6'0.

I agree Geo, Tommy Lee Jones is about 5'10" - 10.5"...no more. You have to be wary about guys that wear cowboy boots all the time. They can give up to 3" in height gain. In MIB he was a couple of inches (2-3) shorter than Will Smith who I believe is hovering around 6'1" maybe under it. Also 1 inch under Gary Busey (5'11.5")in Under siege (and Jones was wering cowboy boots throughout)

WyoBoy, I'm afraid your judgment is not correct. I stood next to him in a Polo game. He was wearing Polo boots, which have no more sole height than ordinary shoes or even flatter (as there's the danger of catching your foot with the stirrup). He impressed me as a big man. I'm 5ft 8.5in and I had to look up to him. Definitely agree with the 5ft 11.5in or 6ft.

"Don't downplay jones, you didn't pay attention well enough."
Jesus Valeri, what is he your Dad?
I did pay attention, and Franco(5ft10.5) and Jones looked very close in height. Even if Jones had an inch on him, he's at most 5ft11.5 tops! I'd say Jones is around 5ft11-5ft11.25 these days, and near 6ft when he was younger.
As for Smith, he looked to be more than a half inch taller than Jones in the MIB flicks. I saw about a 1.5 inch difference between them in those films.

He is 60 in the movie,it was filmed in 2006,and he looks it,his eyes aren't that old to give the expression of 70+ man.His eyes are younger,eyes are the essence of any age a person looks.for ex im 18, my mother says she sometiems loosk at me and sees a 40 year old man.Not because of my looks,but because of my look in my eyes. You are jsut talking about some wrinkles,and he looked pretty much the same even 10 years ago in men in black.Actually he aged less than others,since he already had the wrinkles.Compare him to stallone,now that guy aged a lot in 10 years.
But he still stands proudly at 6 feet.So I'm almost his height,yay.

You are jsut talking about some wrinkles,and he looked pretty much the same even 10 years ago in men in black.Actually he aged less than others,since he already had the wrinkles.Compare him to stallone,now that guy aged a lot in 10 years.
But he still stands proudly at 6 feet.So I'm almost his height,yay.

Hes no more than 6 feet nowadays.looked 1.5 inches taller thna james franco.no more though. Also in 2002 men in black 2 looked half an inch under will smith. So I think will smith is still 6'1,not 6'2 as he claims.and I guess tommy lee lost half an inch in the last 5 years.maybe.

Tommy Lee Jones looked to have about 2 inches on Jason Patric, and was almost the exact same height as James Franco(5ft11) in In The Valley of Elah. I'm thinking he's more like 5ft11.25-5ft11.5 now. In certain shots he looked tall enough, but in others rather average. On another note man has he aged in the last few years. He's always had a craggy face, but he really looks to be in his upper 60's-early 70's, as opposed to his real age of 61.

No way is Tommy Lee Jones over 6'. If you look at Under Siege, Gary Busey (6')has an inch on him and TLJ is wearing cowboy boots. I'd give him 5'10.5". This makes sense cos Will Smith in Men in Black was 2" taller than him and I peg Will Smith at 6'0.5" as many do.

I have always thought that a 6 footer is tall for a man and a woman.So Jones looks 6'1".My mom saw him at a dinner 20 years back and said he was kind of a tall guy.

looked about half an inch taller than 6' 1" Harrison Ford in The Fugitive... How about 6' 1" at least in his prime?

In 1991, a newspaper mentioned "Jones' bios give his height as 6 feet 11/2 or 6 feet 1/4"

Tommy Lee is shorter in person than he looks on camera. I stood only a few feet away from him when at Fox studios they were shooting a scene for the film Volcano. I always thought he was at least 6'2". He appeared to be roughly 6'. But he has hands like a gorilla! I mean they're the largest I've ever seen on a man of normal size.

tommy used to live near me in san antonio texas in the 90's. we frequented many of the same places. we stood in line at the cashier several times. i am 5'10 and some times wear a moderately heavy rubber soled casual shoe. we were exactly the same height when he was wearing street shoes.
