I'm a big fan of dreams. Unfortunately, dreams are our first casualty in life - people seem to give them up, quicker than anything, for a 'reality.'
Great American actor, Kevin Costner is known for his power-packed performances in movies such as The Untouchables, No Way Out, Bull Durham,, Dances with Wolves, JFK, Man of Steel, among many others.
About Kevin Costner's real, undisputed height
Kevin Costner is tall. He has mentioned his height in the past as 6 feet 1 inch. Here is his quote.
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. Mum kept assuring me that I would grow and finally I did. I'm 6 feet 1 inch now, but I've never got over being short.
But Kevin has also mentioned his height as only 6 feet. Though, we think that was only a figure of speech. Even a 6'2½" Idris Elba has referred to himself as '6-foot tall' in the past.
Why do we think so? Because in the movie Robin Hood, Kevin was very in height close to Morgan Freeman's height who was 6'2½" in his prime as well.
In the movie, The Guardian Kevin looked barely any shorter than Ashton Kutcher who is 6'2½" as well.
After many more such height comparisons, we think Kevin Costner is really 6 feet 1 inch tall. Even in his mid-sixties, it looks like he has barely lost any height with age.
The real height of Kevin Costner is
6 ft 1 in (185 cm)
