Stephen Merchant

Stephen Merchant

At a whopping 6ft 7ins Stephen Merchant is one of the tallest actors in Hollywood today!

To celebrate the release of comedy romp Hall Pass - available on Blu-ray and DVD on 4th July - we are comparing Merchant to the tallest (and smallest!) actors in Hollywood today - and of course how he measures up to his fellow Hall Pass co-stars!

The Great Khali

Coming in at a humungous 7ft 3ins the Great Khali is one of the tallest actors in Hollywood.

Recognised as the looming powerhouse, the Great Khali in WWE he has earned acting roles that exploit his towering size and mean demeanour (and of course his signature wrestling movies!)

Brad Garret

Everybody Loves Raymond regular Brad Garret out measures Hall Pass Merchant by a single inch! 

6ft 8ins Garret uses his voice rather than size in Hollywood - providing vocals for many of the Pixar’s animated triumphs in recent years.

Owen Wilson

Merchant’s co-star Owen Wilson comes in at a respectable 5ft 11ins but is the shortest of the Hall Pass gang (Jason Sudeikis comes in at a slightly taller 6ft 1ins).

Wilson is never short of a pretty lady on his arm so it's doubtful he has ever asked for a hall pass!

Joe Pesci

At 5ft 4ins Pesci may be on the smaller side of our tall list but anyone who’s seen Goodfellas knows he’s not a guy to be messed with - and possibly a victim of short man syndrome!

Danny Devito

Just hitting the 5ft mark Danny DeVito has made a career from being the small guy - see Twins where DeVito plays the unlikely twin brother to 6ft 2ins Arnold Schwarzenegger!

DeVito and long term wife Rhea Perlman have been married since 1982. Wonder if the subject of a Hall Pass has ever come up...

Verne Troyer 

Pint sized Austin Powers may be 2ft 8ins but he never needed a Hall Pass to attract an endless slew of attractive ladies!

Best known for his role as mini me Verne is the smallest actor on our list.

Hall Pass is available on Blu-ray and DVD from the 4th July.
