Robert Downey Jr. is 173 cm tall in Stand Next To's current data, or about 5 ft 8 in. That puts the Avengers: Doomsday star at exactly the same listed height as Vanessa Kirby, 5 cm shorter than Anthony Mackie, 6 cm shorter than Pedro Pascal, 10 cm shorter than Chris Evans, 14 cm shorter than Tom Hiddleston and 18 cm shorter than Chris Hemsworth. Florence Pugh is the shortest person in this selected eight-star lineup at 162 cm, 11 cm below Downey.
That spread is easy to lose on screen. Footwear, costume design, blocking and camera placement can all change how tall actors appear beside one another. The comparison here does the opposite: it places each actor's current supported Stand Next To height on one literal scale, using the site's current controlled figure for each person.
The selected Avengers: Doomsday lineup is Robert Downey Jr. at 173 cm, Chris Hemsworth at 191 cm, Chris Evans at 183 cm, Pedro Pascal at 179 cm, Florence Pugh at 162 cm, Vanessa Kirby at 173 cm, Anthony Mackie at 178 cm and Tom Hiddleston at 187 cm. The visual pattern is unusually useful: Downey and Kirby match exactly; Mackie and Pascal are separated by only 1 cm; Evans, Hiddleston and Hemsworth then step upward in roughly four-centimeter intervals.
Disney's current official material lists all eight actors in Avengers: Doomsday, which releases December 18, 2026. It also identifies Downey as Victor von Doom, while current official imagery places Mackie's Captain America, Hemsworth's Thor, Pugh's Yelena, Pascal's Reed Richards and Kirby's Sue Storm inside the same cross-universe event. That makes a common true-height scale more informative than comparing unrelated red-carpet photographs.
Who is tallest in this Avengers: Doomsday comparison? Chris Hemsworth at 191 cm. Who is shortest? Florence Pugh at 162 cm. The difference between them is 29 cm, or a little over 11 inches. Robert Downey Jr. sits 11 cm above Pugh and 18 cm below Hemsworth.
The numbers are not measurements taken from movie frames. They are Stand Next To's current supported effective heights, preserved with source provenance and owner-gated corrections where needed. The published comparison should fail closed if a member's current height or figure later drifts, so the visual stays tied to current canonical data rather than becoming a static one-off graphic.
