LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: The 'Inception' star Leonardo DiCaprio, whose height is 6 ft (183 cm), continues his stronghold on showbiz, with his magnificent performance and physical stature.
Hailed as one of the greatest actors of his generation, Leonardo DiCaprio's height has been a hot topic of discussion considering the fact that many media reports have claimed him to be 5ft 9in (175 cm) or 5ft 10in (177 cm) tall over the years.
Leonardo DiCaprio’s height comfortably makes him taller than most other Hollywood leading men. However, he once revealed that his fans often perceive him as shorter than his real height.
In 2016, the ‘Inception’ actor was in conversation with Access Hollywood’s Billy Bush when he said “I’m always shocked at how tall you are.”
“It’s weird. I do get that a lot. I’m not extraordinarily tall, but people…” DiCaprio then replied.
He added, “That’s the number one thing people say to me constantly — ‘Wow! You’re a lot taller than I thought you’d be. They have a perception, I guess, that most actors are gnomes or something.”
Leonardo DiCaprio’s height compared to his peers
Leonardo DiCaprio’s height might appear less impressive in real life but he is perceived differently in the entertainment industry as he is apparently taller than most of other Hollywood leading men.
The ‘Titanic’ star comfortably appears taller when compared to stars like Tom Cruise (5ft 7in or 172cm), Robert Downey Jr (5ft 8in or 174 cm), Joaquin Phoenix (5ft 8in or 174cm), Jamie Foxx (5f t9 or 175cm), Robert DeNiro (5ft 9 or 175cm) or Johnny Depp (5ft 9 or 175cm).
However, it is not hard to notice a height difference when DiCaprio stands next to giant Hollywood actors like Chris Pratt (6ft 2in or 188cm), Chris Hemsworth (6ft 3 or 191cm), Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson (6 ft 5 or 196 cm) and Arnold Schwarzenegger (6 ft 2 or188 cm).
