Terence Stamp height - How tall is Terence Stamp?

Was listed as a potential nominee on the 2006 Razzie Award nominating ballot. He was listed as a suggestion in the Worst Supporting Actor category for his performance in the film Elektra (2005). However, he failed to receive a nomination.

Chosen by Empire magazine as one of the 100 Sexiest Stars in film history (#59) (1995).

A few minor but colourful roles, topped by his performance as the transsexual Bernadette in The Adventures of Priscilla, Queen of the Desert (1994), have put Stamp back in the British consciousness.

Was originally considered for the role of John Ryder in The Hitcher (1986), which went to Rutger Hauer.

Both he and his The Company of Wolves (1984) co-star David Warner have played Jor-El, the biological Kryptonian father of Superman. He provided the character's voice in Smallville (2001) whereas Warner played the role in Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman: Foundling (1994).

Went from playing Superman's adversary (General Zod in Superman II (1980)) to playing Superman's most loving parent (the voice of Jor-El on Smallville (2001)).

He returned home in the late 1970s to star as the evil General Zod in Superman II (1980), and in 1984, delivered what many consider his finest performance as the supergrass in Stephen Frears' The Hit (1984).

After an extremely successful early career, starring in Modesty Blaise (1966), Poor Cow (1967) and Far from the Madding Crowd (1967), Stamp withdrew from mainstream films after his girlfriend, supermodel Jean Shrimpton, left him, and he went on a 10-year sabbatical in India.

A publicity shot from The Collector (1965) showing Stamp holding a chloroform pad was used for the cover of The Smiths single "What Difference Does It Make." After some copies were printed, Stamp decided he did not want his photo to be used, and the rest of the copies appeared with Morrissey in the exact same pose, looking very much like him but holding a glass of milk instead. Later, Stamp relented and his photo was reinstated on the 12-inch single cover.

Terence Henry Stamp was born and lived in Canal Road, Bow, until German bombers forced his family to move to Plaistow. An icon of the 1960s, he dated the likes of Julie Christie, Brigitte Bardot and Jean Shrimpton.
