    those 2 are never growth talent ...
    LOL! You're right on that one.

    With that said, I think most of the new guys are around 5 ft 10/11. You need height to add to your charisma if you don't have any screen presence. There have been few short actors who have come off as charismatic... Wong Hei, for example.

    Too bad that Andy and Tony aren't involved in series anymore for a longgggggg time. What about Dicky Cheung? He is real short and a good actor as well.

    Yes Andy Lau is confirmed ard 174-176cm range.. his bio says it's 175cm. if u watch his latest movie, he's slightly shorter than Felix wong & Felix is same as Gallen who is 178 cm..

    Anyone noticed every generation of actors seemd to be taller... like the "newest" star like Rong Ng & Sammuel chan are all above 180cm. They are taller than the slightly older batch like Gallen (178cm), Sunny Chan, Roger Kwok, or even Andy & Tony.

    The veteran actors, those who act as father of the leads, are usually visibly shorter ... like David Chiang, Shek Sau or Liu Song Ren etc..

    is it cos ppl are generally taller or TVB raise e height requirement to be actors ?

    hey neverland my fav. actress is Tavia Yeung also.

    I know that most of the atresses are around 5'7 for example like Tavia shi is 5'6 and I don't but I'm 5'3 so they don't look a lot taller than me in the movies. But TVB has to choose guys that are tall for them to stand next to girls and be taller otherwise we will c that the girls look taller.

    Default stop hatin'

    I think yall should stop hatin' and criticizing these actors/actresses. There's a reason why they are actors and act in films that are very popular. How/Why would you say that they are bad actors if you never watched the film before? It's hypocritical to say one thing but do another.

    well i think that the actors in TVB are quite decent in height so its okie for me it doesnt really matter to me about the height but more about their acting skills... and most of all LOOKS! ...but some actors i like them cos of their acting but not their looks so like...

    Yay! I'm not the only one!

    Anywho, I dont think people are criticising about the actors for being tall. I think they are merely wondering whos tall...incase their favourite actor is too tall they can do a wee comparison to see how far they have to reach

    Does anyone have a reliable source of the actors' height? I've been searching around and I dont really believe on what i've found so far. They can't be that tall. From their biography, I think they all have an inch (at least) taller than their actual height. For example, Roger Kwok is short, but they put him as 5'7, 5'8

    But of course, some of them are really tall, like joe Ma or Moses
