The Twilight saga was one of the biggest film series ever made and it's hard to believe that it has been over a decade since the first film was released. It was an iconic film saga that really left a mark on the world and made fans feel like they were a part of the vampire world in Forks, Washington.
Since there are 5 films in the saga it isn't hard to grow a connection to the characters and root for certain actors. But one thing that not many fans are aware of is the actor's heights; who is the shortest and who is the tallest? Well, we are here to answer that question for you. Here we have listed the 5 tallest and 5 shortest actors in the Twilight cast.
Tallest: Jackson Rathbone (5'10")
Barely making it on the tall scale, Jackson Rathbone comes in at 5'10" and is only an inch taller than co-star Taylor Lautner. Rathbone portrays the shy but easily lovable Jasper Cullen who at first seems a little standoffish in the first film, but quickly became a fan favorite with his sense of humor and sweet personality.
He has been growing largely in fame and popularity since the Twilight series came to an end with roles in television series and films like Do Not Reply, The Wall of Mexico, Samson, and The Last Ship.
Shortest: Taylor Lautner (5'9")
Although he plays the super intimidating and massive werewolf Jacob Black in the Twilight movie saga, in real life Taylor Lautner is actually pretty short compared to his fellow costars, coming in at 5'9".
Since the popular film series has come to an end, Lautner has appeared in films such as Grown Ups 2, The Ridiculous 6, as well as the small screen series Scream Queens. He isn't doing much acting now and is enjoying living life away from the spotlight.
Tallest: Peter Facinelli (5'11")
Everyone's favorite vampire father Carlise Cullen, also known as Peter Facinelli, comes in at a soaring 5'11". He is the adoptive father to Edward, Jasper, Alice, Rosalie, and Emmett and is pretty much the leader and father figure that any immortal vampire would need in their lives.
Facinelli's acting has not stopped after filming ended. He has since gone on to guest star in series like Glee, Nurse Jackie, Supergirl, and S.W.A.T.
Shortest: Kristen Stewart (5'5")
Kristen Stewart, also known as the iconic Bella Swan, is known for being clumsy and petite, one of which is very true in real life since the actress is only 5'5". Her height is definitely not too surprising since throughout the film series she is seen around Robert Pattinson who is 6'1" and Taylor Lautner who is 5'9", and is visibly much shorter than the two.
Since the Twilight series ended, Stewart has continued to maintain a presence in the spotlight with blockbuster films such as Snow White and the Huntsman, Charlie's Angels, and the most recent film, Underwater.
Tallest: Billy Burke (6'0")
One of the best on-screen fathers in the Twilight film series is most definitely Charlie Swan for his caring, protective, and sometimes overbearing parenting style. Billy Burke is coming in at a roaring 6'0", which is very close to his co-stars Robert Pattinson and Kellan Lutz.
After filming for the movie series came to a close Burke has stuck to the smaller screen with roles on series like Zoo, Major Crimes, 9-1-1, and The Most Dangerous Game.
Shortest: Ashley Greene (5'5")
The short, cute, quirky, and future seeing vampire Alice Cullen has been a huge fan favorite in the film and book series from the very beginning, and she isn't much different from the actress who portrays her. Ashley Greene is one of the shortest of the cast members coming in at 5'5".
Ashley has since gone on to star in the Hallmark film Christmas On My Mind, the blockbuster Bombshell, and she even portrayed Priscilla Presley in the film Shangri-La Suite.
Tallest: Kellan Lutz (6'1")
Kellan Lutz is surprisingly the same height as his on-screen vampire brother Robert Pattinson as the two measure up to a tall 6'1". In the film series, he portrays the sporty yet aggressive Emmett Cullen who is definitely one of the more intimidating members of the Cullen family with his massive strength and angst.
Lutz has since gone on to star as the lead character in the film The Legend of Hercules and, most recently, the television series FBI.
Shortest: Nikki Reed (5'4")
Nikki Reed plays the gorgeous yet hardheaded Rosalie Hale in the Twilight saga, and she is surprisingly one of the shortest in the cast coming in at 5'4". Throughout the film series, her portrayal as the feisty and confident vampire definitely causes her to have a huge personality on-screen, which ultimately makes her seem to be a much taller person.
Reed has since gone on to star in the film A Sunday Horse and starred alongside her husband Ian Somerhalder in the television series V-Wars as well as Sleepy Hollow.
Tallest: Robert Pattinson (6'1")
The not-so-sparkling vampire in real-life, Robert Pattinson is not surprisingly one of the tallest actors in the Twilight cast coming in at 6'1". His portrayal of Edward Cullen throughout the film series was nothing short of iconic and definitely made him a huge star since the release of the first film.
The Twilight stud has not stopped there and he has since been cast as Bruce Wayne in the big upcoming Batman film set to release in 2021 which is the most recent of many big roles in which he has been cast over the course of his career.
Shortest: Elizabeth Reaser (5'3")
Coming in as the shortest actress in the Twilight saga is Elizabeth Reaser at 5'3" who plays the lovable adoptive vampire mother Esme Cullen. Surprisingly her height is not really noticeable throughout the film series even though she is mostly surrounded by super tall men constantly, but she somehow just blends in with everyone else.
Elizabeth has gone on to star in some very popular television series such a The Handmaid's Tale, Easy, Law & Order True Crime, and The Haunting of Hill House.
