LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Anakin Skywalker, also known as Darth Vader, is the secondary antagonist of the Star Wars franchise who stands tall at 6 feet 7 inches (2.03 m or 203 cm) according to sources.
Darth Vader is still one of the most iconic and menacing villains in the Star Wars universe.
In George Lucas's first feature film, 'Star Wars: A New Hope,' he made his big screen debut as a ruthless and unyielding tyrant determined to destroy the Rebel Alliance.
Darth Vader, a former Jedi trainee of Obi-Wan Kenobi, Luke Skywalker's master, had long since gone evil, but he didn't come out as Luke's father until the second movie.
Over the years, Darth Vader has had a huge fan following and they have been expressive about his height on social media.
A user once tweeted, "Omg I just played a Star Wars game on VR and it was sooo cool but I felt so smol like I was below Darth Vader’s shoulder height and everyone kept looking down at me."
Meanwhile, another fan wrote, "David Prowse, having Set Bar as Darth Vader in height and build, made it functionally impossible for Hayden Christiensen to take the role of Anakin; this magnificently bad error was not corrected until Spencer Wilding wore the suit in Rogue One."

David Prowse, having Set Bar as Darth Vader in height and build, made it functionally impossible for Hayden Christiensen to take the role of Anakin; this magnificently bad error was not corrected until Spencer Wilding wore the suit in Rogue One.
Is Darth Vader taller than Kylo Ren?
Kylo Ren is a dark warrior strong with the Force who stands tall at 6 feet 3 inches (1.90 m or 190 cm) and is 3 inches shorter than Darth Vader. He wants to destroy the Jedi legacy, the New Republic, and the Resistance as a commander of the First Order and a pupil of Supreme Commander Snoke.
Kylo Ren has a constant fascination with his grandfather. It wasn't until he was a teenager and a tape that Bail Organa had made, meant to be a private message for Leia, was released with the whole galaxy that he discovered he was Darth Vader's grandchild.
Ben Solo, the son of Han Solo and Princess Leia Organa from the first Star Wars trilogy, goes by Kylo Ren.
Ben was first taught as a Jedi by his uncle Luke Skywalker, but Supreme Leader Snoke lured him to the dark side of the Force. He now wants to become as strong as his grandfather, the Sith Lord Darth Vader, also known as Anakin Skywalker.
Is Darth Vader shorter than Obi-Wan Kenobi?
Obi-Wan Kenobi is a fictional character in the Star Wars franchise who is 5 feet 10 inches (1.78 m or 178 cm) tall and is 8 inches shorter than Darth Vader.
In the comic books and novels that make up the Star Wars Expanded Universe, Obi-Wan makes frequent appearances. Lucasfilm reclassified all previous works as Legends and deemed them non-canonical to the franchise in April 2014, with the exception of the episodic films and the animated series 'The Clone Wars.'
