How Tall is Anna Kendrick?

Anna Kendrick is 5 feet 2 inches or 1.57 meters tall. While this is nothing to scoff at, the fact remains that the actress is short when things are placed in perspective. For instance data from the American Center for Disease Control shows that the average American woman is 5 feet 4 inches tall (1.6m) while the average American man is 5 feet 9 inches tall (1.75m). It, therefore, means that Anna Kendrick is two inches shorter than most American women out there and seven inches shorter than most of her male compatriots.

Comparing Anna Kendrick’s Height to the Average in Hollywood

Bringing it closer home to the Hollywood industry where Kendrick has made a name for herself with appearances in several blockbuster movie franchises and many award wins, the situation is no different. In fact, we can even say that it is a bit worse. Statistics show that the average Hollywood actor is 5 feet 10 inches (1.77m) tall while the average Hollywood actress is 5 feet 5 inches (1.65m). It, therefore, means that Anna Kendrick is three inches shorter than many of her fellow Hollywood female stars and eight inches shorter than the male ones.

Thankfully, this has not negatively impacted Anna Kendrick’s career as being small can be advantageous to female actresses in Hollywood. As is a well-known fact, audiences prefer their heroes tall and imposing with the heroine shorter. Tall actresses, therefore, find it hard landing roles as nobody wants them to tower over the men. This fact would have inevitably helped Anna Kendrick’s career progression.
