22 Tall Actors From Hollywood

If you watch Grey’s anatomy, you will know about Denny Duquette. Or maybe you saw Watchmen and realized how perfect he portrayed The Comedian. Or maybe you saw P.S. I love you, a movie for which he learned to speak in an Irsih accent and play the guitar for.

11.   Matthew Fox- 6′ 2″ (1.88 m)

Another extremely popular lead from the tv show Lost. Matthew plays Jack, Sawyer’s friend/nemesis. You might also remember from another TV show he played in, Party of 5. For some reason he reminds me of actor/director/screenwriter/producer  Edward Burns (who just missed the list as he is 6′ 1″ (1.85 m))

12.   Ashton Kutcher: 6′ 2½” (1.89 m)

Oh, this guy knows what he is doing. He proved his comedy as the cute but dumb Kelso in the  sitcom  That 70’s show and then played in a bunch of hilarious comedies. His drama/thriller The Butterfly Effect was really solid and his TV prank show Punkd got him even more popular, as well as proving his wicked sense of humor. He married Demi Moore, gets on fabulously with her ex-Bruce Willis and their children. Oh, and he is also one of the actors to use twitter to take his fame even further. The guy is funny, smart and cute. And he gets social media. Yeah, I want to meet this guy. I would really like to talk business.

13.   Clive Owen- 6′ 2½” (1.89 m)

One of the most popular Brits ever. I featured a lot of his movies individually and hey, of course I included him in my list of favorite Brits. Clive Owen quite simply rocks. He makes great movies and he is well…gorgeous. Oh and he is happily married. I want to meet his wife and take pointers.

14.   Eric Bana- 6′ 2½” (1.89 m)

Another popular Aussie. You can find more info on him on my top Aussies list.

15.   Hugh Laurie- 6′ 2½” (1.89 m)

He studied anthropology so he could be in the rowing team. He made it big as a comedian in Britain and his most different and unique role came when he started playing Dr. Gregory House. One of the smartest and most intriguing characters ever to hit TV.

16.   Matthew Macfadyen- 6′ 3″ (1.91 m)

Matthew is the beloved Mr. Darcy from the 2003 movie Pride and Prejudice, a role which made him a worldwide sweetheart. Oh, and he is tall too. Seriously. Wow.

17.   Lee Pace- 6′ 3″ (1.91 m)

Actually I got the idea for writing this post when I was chatting to a friend of mine who is even taller than me and having even more problems finding tall enough guys. She is also a big Lee Pace fan. Who the hell is Lee Pace? Oh, where should you start if you don’t know? Here’s the list:

Soldier’s Girl

The Fall

Possession

Miss Pettigrew Lives For a Day

18.   Josh Duhamel- 6′ 3½” (1.92 m)

Star of the tv show Las Vegas and husband of the Black Eyed Peas singer Fergie.  Win a Date with Ted Hamilton is not the best romantic comedy ever but I just love the scene where poor Topher Grace ‘s character sees Josh shirtless. Sure Topher Grace is cute but really….did you see Duhamel with his shirt off?

19.   Owain Yeowan- 6′ 4″ (1.93 m)

OwOwain on the left, Simon Bajer on the right.

           Owain Yeowan should be the definition of goofy cute, especially with his role as Agent Rigsby in       

           The Mentalist. Yes, Simon Baker is gorgeous. But Owain is…well cute and is really tall. I love that  

           show. Obviously I would have still loved the show if Owain was short but… I am 5’9” and I live in

          Turkey so show mercy! At the very least, I deserve to see some tall guys on the screen.

20.   Liam Neeson: 6′ 4″ (1.93 m)

         A wonderful actor who has had many impressive roles, especially in the Steven Spielberg classic

         Schindler’s List. But, my favorite Liam ever is Taken. And he also teaches how to kick ass at the age

         of 56. Watch Taken.

21.   Vince Vaughn- 6′ 5″ (1.96 m)

       Vince might have put on the weight but he used to be really good-looking. He is still cute but you  

       should really see him in Return to Paradise to see him in a different light. And he is among the tallest

       actors.

22.   John Corbett- 6′ 5″ (1.96 m)

This is a bad picture but hey, it does show John’s height.

Who better than Corbett to finish the list with? He has been acting for a while but what made him a household name was his character Aidan in The Sex and The City series. Many of the fans would pick him over Chris Noth’s Mr. Big ( me included). His character was just too good to be true. He was loyal, nice, romantic, fun, a non-smoker, a rock fan and he was tall. Damn. Good news though. He is in the second SATC movie. Yeah!

Please remind me if I left actors out. These are all I could remember.
