Posted: 12/21/04 at 9:30pmI have met Patrick Wilson. I am 5'8 1/2 inches tall. That is in bare feet. When I met Patrick I was wearing at least 1 1/2 inch heel. That puts me at 5'10. He was definitely at least 2 inches taller than me.

Posted: 12/21/04 at 9:57pmI agree with magruder ...only let the picture he/she just posted NOT set the example of what a Hot picture of him is. He looks like hes playing Elphaba in that wicked show. Or taking a big poo. Updated On: 12/21/04 at 09:57 PM

Posted: 12/21/04 at 10:00pmI like it. He looks feral. It was a production of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde (not the Wildhorn version), where he was playing Hyde.

Posted: 12/22/04 at 12:19amIn that picture he looks like a possessed George Clooney. Don't get me wrong; Clooney is a good-looking guy. But the demon possession thing isn't pretty. Updated On: 12/22/04 at 12:19 AM

Not the tallest, but two of my faves are a bit over 6' tall: Simon Jones and Brian Stokes Mitchell.

Oh my God BWayBoy88 I think you are my new favorite person.
I'm seriously tearing up at the Harrison Chad comment. That kid is a riot. And definitely one of the tallest on bway if you go by personality. Talented kid, that one.
And to the "you can't get away with it (lying about your height) in this business" guy- why the heck not? I have a friend who is 6'5" and he changed his resume to 6'2" and no one has ever batted an eye at it.
I also thought Hugh Jackman was like 6'3" and that's why they cast him as Peter Allen cuz Allen was tall too. Plus him and Shuler Hensley look about the same height in OK! but you never know Tom Cruise wears lifts after all

Oh, there's something I wasn't remembering. Assuming James Marsden is 5'9" or 5'10", why didn't he look taller than Jackman even though he was wearing lifts and Jackman was walking around barefoot in X-Men?
If you still think he's under 6 feet, that's fine. I just disagree is all. It doesn't really reflect on anything. :)

Posted: 12/22/04 at 1:00pmWhile I think Tommy Tune was probably the all-time tallest - I believe Chuck Wagner comes in a close second - he's like 6'4" or 6'5"

I remember chuckling over James Lipton's comment on Hugh Jackman's height in the ACTORS STUDIO interview, relative to his own height. When he asked Hugh about his height - and Hugh told him that he was in between 6'2" and 6'3" - Mr. Lipton said it was "something he could never hope to be"...When they talked about swimming as a favorite hobby sport and Hugh ( after saying he does freestyle and butterfly ) asked James what his preference was, Mr. Lipton said it was "freestyle, but he wasn't 6'2"
As a London reviewer said when OKLAHOMA! opened in London, Hugh Jackman has "legs that are as high as an elephant's eye"

Jackman is very tall. I saw him at the Drama Desks and my date wa 6'1 and he towered over him. I looked like a keebler elf next to him.
Jackman really is a stunning man. Marc Kudisch is not bad either.
This thread is making me sweat.
Now can someone post pictures of Craig Bierko?
Talk about HOT HOT HOT.

Posted: 6/5/19 at 12:08amAmong the current ones on Broadway, I think we have to include Adam Driver. I think he’s 6’3.

I’m 6’8, so my barometer for tallness is usually within 6 inches of me (6’2 and up). That being said (and this is data from years of stagedooring):
- Jerry O’Connell - 6’2
- Michael Shannon - 6’3
- Adam Driver - 6’3
- Michael Xavier - Somewhere about 6’3-6’4 (this is my only guess)
- John Lithgow - 6’4
- Zachary Levi - 6’4
- Nick Cordero - 6’5
- Armie Hammer - 6’5
- Timothy Hughes - 6’7 (and god bless him)
P.S - Tallest woman goes to Allison Janney at 6’0
