Jacob Elordi is breaking down barriers in Hollywood and opening doors for others! (2024)

Hollywood has always avoided casting men who were very tall for obvious reasons, as different actors must share frames with one another and someone very tall who towers over the other actors just doesn’t look right or work on camera. But with Elordi, it they’ve made an exception and work around his height to make it work.

He's 6'5".

So are Vince Vaughan, Randy Quaid, Armie Hammer, Tyler Perry, Tim Robbins, Joe Mangianello, and John Corbett.

At just one inch shorter: Liam Neeson, Steven Seagal, Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson, Jason Momoa, John Wayne, Clint eastwood.

I don;t think this is much of a story.

The difference is that he’s actually 6 foot five and not just claiming it like a lot of these other actors. Army hammer isn’t much taller than Timothy Chalamet, and Timothée. Chalamet isn’t even 6 foot tall. Also army Hammer is in a movie star.

R2: I don’t know if Chalamet himself said he was 6 feet or if IMDB or some other site said he was 6 feet. Either way he’s not that tall. He’s probably about 5’10.

Zendaya is listed at 5’10 and taller than Chalamet. Just saying.

You can't even spell their names correctly. So why should we trust you about their heights?

I'm guessing you meant "... isn't a movie star."

Well, neither is Elordi.

Isn't his main claim to fame that HBO series Euphoria?

All of his movies have flopped -- Priscilla, Saltburn, He Went That Way, 2 Hearts.

Even the films where he was supporting -- Deep Water, The Very Excellent Mr. Dundee, The Mortuary Collection.

The media is trying to convince me that he is interesting and I just don't buy it.

R10 lately, the 'woke' media is into promoting grotesque people, deformed people, handicapped people, obese people, tattooed people, very tall people, he-she's, etc.

100 years ago, these people would have been side show freaks.

Liberal Hollywood currently resembles a goddamn circus!

It would all be entertaining if the 'wokes' weren't humorless, pessimistic scolds who mainly produce ugly, feel-bad movies.

I didn't know Randy Quaid was that tall.

I saw "Priscilla" on a flight recently. JE towered over Cailee Spaeny, he looked two feet taller than she (and everyone else).

It was distracting.

He’s hot but stop treating this spoiled c*nt like he’s a saint

Elordi is too tall, not hot and not much of an actor, but he's an excellent purse model.

Our dear Jacob is breaking down barriers in Hollywood and changing things. A groundbreaker!

How blessed for Jacob. Lord knows tall people are so discriminated against, what with doorways and all.

by Anonymousreply 23February 15, 2024 12:30 PM

R11: The woke progressives currently running Hollywood are anti-beauty and anti-tradition. Hence why Chalamet has an acting career and why all the current leading men are ugly.

Finally, someone to break the glass ceiling for tall white men.

by Anonymousreply 25February 15, 2024 1:38 PM

Elordi isn’t ugly. Neither is Mescal or Holland or Butler or any of the young actors in that age group being pushed as Hollywoods new leads.

by Anonymousreply 26February 15, 2024 1:39 PM

If it weren't for his two eyes, I'd think Elordi was a cyclops birth.
