Hey Rob, just wanted to ask you if you were certain Walton is this low? In ‘The Shield’ he always looked much taller than 5’7 co-star Chiklis and the thing that gets me the most is he always looked very close in height to David Rees Snell who is listed as 5’11.5 on here. How is that possible to look that close in height when he is supposedly two inches shorter? Which should realistically be a similar height difference to the one between him and Chiklis.

Editor RobNot certain, because I can see how at times 5ft 10 is a possibility.

Walton is 5'9.75 (177cm) Rob. I met him back in 2010 during Justified promoting. Very nice guy, I am 5'8 (173cm) and he was about 5cm taller than me. He was wearing dress shoes but no lifts that I could tell. I had boots with a heel on, about the same size, and he was 5cm taller than me. He totally pulled off 177cm. Very good posture. I could not get a pic cuz he was running late and i didnt want to intrude.

I've seen the shield, I wouldn't say he looks 5'11 in it. He pulls off a solid 5'10 in it but he wears big boots in the show.

Not much in it between Goggins and Timothy Olyphant in Justified, two inches tops I’d say and Olyphant has never looked under 6 feet to me. Moreover, Goggins outshone lift wearer Don Johnson height wise in promotional shots featuring the cast of Django Unchained. Thus, I cannot go below 5’10” for Goggins just yet.

He looked an inch shorter than Danny McBride in vice principals. I had Danny at 5'10.5 but I see he's been downgraded to 5'10.25. Is 5'9.25 possible for Walton, Rob?

Editor RobI think 9.5 overall seemed ok, but mcbride himself has looked 5ft 10 up to 10.5

5’9” flat. Really works the spiked-up hair in an effort to look taller.

I felt like they shot parts of Justified to make him looked closer to Timothy Olyphant than he really was, Walton also holds better posture much of the time.
Rob, could you add Vice Principals and The Hateful Eight and Ant-Man and The Wasp to his credits?

Looks about an inch shorter than 5'10.5 Danny McBride in Vice Principals. This is fair.

The timberland-esque boots gogging wear in justified can give even more advantage in height than olyphant cowboy boots. I think anyway that goggins is a strong 5'10, close to 5'11, infact in the shield he is not much shorter than 6'1 kenny johnson and alex O'loughlin

I thought there were times when he could look close to Timothy Olyphant on Justified, but that might just have been camera-work and boots, although Olyphant wears boots as well. I don't see Olyphant as a full 6ft, but 5'11.5 - 5'11.75 I could buy. 5'10 for Goggins is probably accurate.

He looks 5'9" in Predators next to Danny Trejo, I think they make him look taller in Justified, trick filming

Rob, he looks a good 4 inches shorter than Timothy Olyphant in Justified, but i guess that's due to Olyphants 2 inch heel cowboy boots.

He's not even close to 6'... My best guess is 5'10". He looks short and small in every picture he's in. Up next to <5'7" Elton John and <6'2" Ray McKinnon, who's not standing nearly straight, he looks 5'10" at best.

Also a very gross-looking man. Bit off-topic, but his face and mega-forehead have started to bug me now that I see him everywhere.

Note the footwear, while also taking into account the placing of the actors.

I'd say more around the 5'9.5" mark. On the show, he's usually wearing Frye boots, with a heel that measures around 1-2 inches, putting him at 5'11". In a recent episode, Goggins is shown standing side-by-side with 5'7" Michael Chiklis; both in suits and dress shoes, and Goggins only stood 2-2.5 inches taller.

5'11 sounds about right.
