LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Jason Momoa's towering stature is such a puzzle that even the vast expanse of the internet struggles to pin down his exact height! Jason Mamoa’s height is 6ft 4 inches (1.93 m), as per IMDb.

Additionally, even Celebrity Heights states Jason Mamoa’s height is 6ft 4 inches, but the actor himself claimed to be 6ft 5 inches tall during an interview with The New York Times in January 2017 in conversation about his viral 'Game Of Thrones' audition.

Is Jason Momoa in the 'Game of Thrones'?

Jason Momoa portrayed the iconic character Khal Drogo in Season 1 of 'Game of Thrones'.

What makes his audition memorable is the unique approach he took in securing the role of the fierce Dothraki warlord; he performed a Maori haka.

Reflecting on his audition for 'Game of Thrones', Jason humorously recounted, "When you have a big 6’ 5" Hawaiian screaming at the top of his lungs . . . casting directors were kind of very scared," as per The New York Times.

Momoa went on to provide some valuable perspective on his approach to portraying the enigmatic yet formidable Drogo.

He shared, "You have to walk around like you’re a king,” he said.

Further adding, “I’m not the king in my own house. I have to wash the dishes and take out the trash and say, ‘Yes, baby.’ I’m 6-foot-5, but I kind of walk around hunched over. I’m not like, ‘Hey, check me out.’ But Drogo had to have that posture."

Is Jason Momoa taller than Roman Reigns?

Jason Momoa and Roman Reigns indeed share several physical similarities, long dark hair, and athletic physiques but Jason Momoa’s height is 6ft 4 inches (193 cm) tall, while Reigns stands at 6ft 3 inches (191 cm). So yes, Jason Momoa is 1 inch taller than Roman Reigns, as per SportRush.

Nevertheless, both men have a significant connection to tattoos, particularly Polynesian-style body art that holds cultural and family significance.

Roman Reigns, for instance, has extensive Polynesian-style tattoos covering his right arm, extending to his back.

Jason Momoa, known for his Polynesian heritage, also sports Polynesian-style tattoos that carry personal and cultural significance.

These similarities in their physical appearance and their choice of tattoos have coerced fans and followers to the comparisons drawn between the two.

Is Dwayne Johnson shorter than Jason Momoa?

Surprisingly, Dwayne Johnson stands at 6ft 3 inches (190.5 cm) whereas Jason Mamoa’s height is 6ft 4 inches, making the former, one inch shorter than Mamoa, according to Celebrity Heights.

Rita Moreno claims Jason Momoa 'is the world's tallest person'

The 'Justice League' star is so tall that even Rita Moreno can't believe Jason Momoa’s height!

During the TIME Women of the Year Gala, the esteemed 91-year-old actress from West Side Story candidly recounted her initial encounter with the 'Aquaman' star, Jason Momoa, whom she met while both were on the set of 'Fast X' in England.

Rita Moreno amusingly remarked to E!News, "Jason Momoa is the world's tallest person. When I met him while I was there doing the film in England, I was actually talking to his belt."

She continued, "That man is so damn tall, literally. I mean he's like way up here and you're sort of looking at his belt and then go, 'Hey, it's me, Rita.'"
