There are some really tall women out there and then there is Gwendoline Christie who is taller than most tall women and as it happens, even men.
Fabulous actress Gwendoline Christie is best known for her portrayal of Brienne of Tarth in Game of Thrones. She has also appeared in many movies, including in the new Star Wars series as First Order stormtrooper Captain Phasma.
About Gwendoline Christie's Height
Gwendoline Christie is simply huge. She is perhaps the tallest woman in the TV and film industry right now. Gwen is so big that she makes a tall woman like Nicole Kidman (5'10½") look literally like a kid. In Game of Thrones, Gwendoline looked disturbingly close in height to a nearly 6'6" Rory McCain (the Hound).
So how tall is Gwendoline Christie really? Too tall -- according to some narrow-minded people. Certainly not to us or even Gwendoline herself. She had said in the past that she likes being tall, and as it happens, we also like tall women.
Gwendoline Christie herself has mentioned her height as 6 feet 3 inches and 6 feet 4 inches in the past, and after just taking a careful look at her, we can see that her real height is indeed between those two numbers.
If Gwen were a man she would have been at least 6 feet 9 inches tall. What is more, she isn't just tall she gives the impression of being big. If she were to do some bodybuilding, she would really look like the female version of "The Moutain Who Rides" from A Game of Thrones.
In short, Gwendoline Christie's real height is right between that of Chris Hemsworth (6'3") and Jason Momoa (6'4").
The real height of Gwendoline Christie is
6 ft 3½ in or 192 cm
Here is Gwendoline Christie's height comparison to a few people -- big and small.
Martin Klebba

Martin Klebba is one of the shortest Hollywood actors of all time. At just 4 feet tall, he is around 2 and a half feet shorter than Gwen. What would you think would look like if they appeared side by side on a street? They don't even look as if they belong to the same species.
Peter Dinklage

Peter Dinklage is taller than Martin Klebba, but not by much. But this super-talented actor surely has a 7 feet "tall" voice!
Daniel Radcliffe

Give a raise to Daniel Radcliffe, if just for just proving that height doesn't matter much if you want to make it big in Hollywood. At just 5 feet 4½ inches, Daniel Radcliffe is one of the shortest leading male actors in Hollywood of all time.

Tom Cruise is a lot shorter than his ex-wife Nicole Kidman. This gorgeous actress is 5 feet 10½ inches tall. Gwen is still around half a foot taller than her.
Leonardo DiCaprio

Leonardo DiCaprio is taller than most people think of him. Probably his roundish face makes him look short. He is nearly 6 feet though -- 5 feet 11½ inches.

Elizabeth Debicki is an Amazonian actress. At 6 feet 2 inches, she is one of the tallest actresses in Hollywood but still around 1.5 inches shorter than Gwendoline.
The Rock

As tall as The Rock is (not 6'5"), he still falls short of Gwen's majestic stature. The Rock is slightly over 6 feet 2 inches tall. Though he was around 6'3" in his youth. People lose height with age and it seems The Rock has lost half an inch before his time -- it probably has to do with his extreme bodybuilding and the upper back curvature caused by it.
