"There's no regret. You can't regret. I mean, I've felt regret but I've also refused to allow regret to sow a seed and live in me because I don't believe it. You feel it, it's like guilt, it's like jealousy, it's like all those horrible things. You've just got to snip them and get them out, because they're no good."
~ Jude Law
Respected actor Jude Law is known for his powerful films and stage performances. Some of his famous movies are Sherlock Holmes, and Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows, Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald, Captain Marvel, The Grand Budapest Hotel, and Spy, etc.
Where Jude Law's height is concerned -- it is something of a mystery. The talented actor manages to look tall sometimes and not so tall other times. Then there are his online height listings which range from 5-feet-10 inches to 6-feet. All this is enough to even make height-sleuths such as us confused.
Fortunately for us, there is a Wired Autocomplete interview, where Jude Law mentions his height:
"I wish I could say I was Six-Foot-One, but I'm not. I'm a little shorter than that. On a good day I'm Six-Foot, on a bad day I'm Five-Eleven...and a half."
Does that settle the matter for once and all? Well, not for us. From what we have seen of Mr. Law, we will be going for Jude Law's worse day height.
The real and definitive height of Jude Law is
5'10½" or 179 cm
