Okay, let's talk about something important. Critically important. We need to discuss how tall Kevin Pearson really is.
I know, I know, it seems silly. But hear me out! This has been bugging me.
The Height Conundrum
So, Justin Hartley, the actor who plays Kevin, is listed as being around 6'2" or 6'3". That's pretty tall!
But sometimes, on screen, he doesn't look that tall. Am I the only one who thinks this?
Maybe it's because everyone else on the show is also pretty statuesque. It could be that.
Comparing to the Pearson Family
Let's consider Jack Pearson. Milo Ventimiglia is reportedly around 5'9".
So, Kevin should tower over him, right? Most of the time he does but sometime that height differences is not obvious.
And what about Rebecca? Mandy Moore is about 5'10".
Kevin definitely looks taller than her, but again, it's not always a huge difference.
The On-Screen Illusion
I think it's all about camera angles, people! And maybe some sneaky shoe lifts.
Hollywood magic at its finest. They can make anyone look taller (or shorter!).
I bet they use all sorts of tricks. You know, to keep us guessing.
My Unpopular Opinion
Here's where I get controversial: I don't think Kevin *feels* like a 6'2" guy.
I know, I know! Justin Hartley's resume says otherwise.
But something about his on-screen presence makes him seem a bit… smaller.
Don't get me wrong, he's still a handsome dude. Super attractive.
But the height? I'm just not fully convinced. I think he is closer to 6'0".
The Height Really Matters?
Okay, deep breaths. I admit, this is a trivial thing to obsess over.
It's not like Kevin's height impacts the plot of This Is Us.
But details matter! Or at least, they matter to me.
Maybe it adds to Kevin's charm. The fact that is is not what we imagine him to be.
Maybe it makes him more relatable.
Let's Discuss
So, what do you think? Am I crazy? Do you agree that Kevin's height is a bit of a mystery?
Or am I just spending way too much time thinking about fictional characters' heights?
Probably the latter. But hey, it's fun to speculate!
Let me know your thoughts! Is Justin Hartley really 6'2"? Or is it all just smoke and mirrors?
Let's settle this debate once and for all. Or, you know, just keep debating it endlessly.
Either way, thanks for indulging my little height obsession! It has been a pleasure.
"We're not perfect. We're just… us." - Probably Kevin Pearson
And maybe "us" includes someone who's secretly shorter than we think!
