How tall is Kevin Costner? Actor 'never dated at all' in high school because of his height
LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Kevin Costner is reportedly 6ft 1 inch (1.85 m/ 185 cm) tall, which contributes heavily to his impressive personality.
However, once he claimed himself to be just 6ft (1.82 m/ 182 cm) tall.
The topic of Costner’s height came up in an interview in the past. According to Celeb Heights, he said, “Maybe I'm 6-feet and I'm white and I'm a leading man and have all the perks that go with that.”

Costner has gained acclaim as an actor and a director and producer. He told The Spectator in 2001, “When I was in high school, I was 5-foot-4."
He continued, “My mother promised me I would grow. By the time I was in my second year at California State University in Fullerton, I was 6-foot-1.”
He further said, “The fact that I was 5ft 2 as a sophomore didn't help. I'm 6ft 1 now but still relate to those feelings. I didn't date in high school and didn't get my growth until college. I never got over being short.”
“The reality is that I'm over 6 feet, Caucasian and I have blue eyes. I know that somewhere along the line I'll probably be cast as a romantic lead," he said, recalling his younger days.
"But I prefer to take the most interesting role possible, even if it's a smaller one,” Costner added.
The ‘Yellowstone’ star also spoke about his love life. He stated, “I never dated at all. I was a small kid, a real late bloomer, and it was embarrassing with girls who were all taller than me.”
