Okay, I have to ask because this has been bugging me for a while now – how tall is Tom Cruise?! I mean, he’s such a huge star, but every time I see him next to other celebs, he looks… not so tall? 
I’ve heard so many different numbers online, and it’s hard to know what’s true. Is he 5’7”? 5’8”? Or is he even shorter than that?
Also, does anyone else find it wild how he still manages to look so commanding on screen despite his height? Like, he’s always the action hero, and you’d never guess he’s not towering over everyone. Is it just great camera angles, or does he have some secret trick? Spill the tea if you know anything!
