How tall is Josh Hutcherson? Is he married? What's his net worth? What's his personal style like? Here's everything you want to know…
May the odds be ever in your favor! If you're trying to copy the style and swagger of handsome, leading man of modest height, Josh Hutcherson, look no further.
Who is Josh Hutcherson?
Josh Hutcherson is an American actor and producer. He is best known for his role as Peeta Mellark in the mega popular Hunger Games series.
In most Hollywood blockbusters, the lead male actor is 6′ 2″ and built like a fitness model. He towers over his female counterpart (and every other character too).
It's not at all realistic. Most men aren't built like Greek gods. In America alone, there are tens of millions of men under 5′ 9″.
But shorter men are rarely picked to play the hero–which is why it's awesome that Josh Hutcherson was chosen for the role of Peeta in The Hunger Games.
Even better, his co-star Jennifer Lawrence is about two inches taller than him.
Of course, there's more to Hutcherson than his height. He's happens to be an excellent actor, and men and women alike recognize his charming personality, talent, and good looks.
How tall is Josh Hutcherson?
Most internet sources claim Josh Hutcherson is 5'7″.
However, sources close to the actor report he is more likely 5′ 5″ tall.
Is Hutcherson married?
While Josh Hutcherson hasn't officially confirmed a marriage, there are rumors he may be married to his longtime love. His significant other, Claudia Traisac, is a Spanish actress. They have been together since 2013.
And, yes she does appear taller than him in heels. However, she is reported to be 5′ 4″. This gives further credence to our theory that Josh Hutcherson is closer to 5′ 5″ than the oft-reports 5′ 7″.
What is his net worth?
Starring in one of the most successful franchises has worked out well for Hutcherson. He has a reported net worth of $22 Million. He has earned his fortune through his acting and producing career exclusively.
Like many wealthy Hollywood players, he started young. As a child, he began acting in commercials. His mother pulled him out of public school and began homeschooling him between gigs. He's said of his educational experience,
“I know it's something kids have to deal with every single day but getting up at the same time every day and having to listen to teachers talk about things I could learn so much more easily on my own, I hated it.”
Homeschool turned out to be the best fit for his personality as well as his career.
What is he doing now?
According to IMDB, Josh Hutcherson's most recent film, Burn, is in post production. He's part of an all-star cast that includes Suki Waterhouse and Harry Shum Jr. The action film does not yet have an official release date.
Earlier this year, he played Nathan Winer in the drama The Long Home. It also featured heavy Hollwood hitters like James Franco and Josh Hartnett. The film is slated for release sometime in 2019.
You may also remember his turn in the critically acclaimed film The Disaster Artist (2017). Yet again, Hutcherson has surrounded himself with superstars. Seth Rogen, Alison Brie, and Zac Efron make appearances.
Even if you're not a moviegoer, you may have seen Josh Hutcherson pop up on Hulu's sci-fi comedy Future Man (2017-2019). Seth Rogen and Evan Goldberg are executive producers of the series.
Basically, Josh Hutcherson knows how to choose amazing projects with awesome coworkers.
How to Dress Like Josh Hutcherson
As a well dressed man of modest height, he sometimes he wears suits, but he's usually dressed down. Joshua Hutcherson has a very laid back, casual aesthetic. However, he definitely understands how clothing should fit.
He sticks to some classic fashion rules for styling shorter men. He doesn't break up his body by wearing contrasting colors on the top and bottom. Generally, his outfits are all light or all dark.
Plus he wears the right colors. Notice how most his outfits are monochromatic or analogous, which are the best color schemes for short men.
His Red Carpet Style
As we said, Josh Hutcherson digs a casual look. If it's a daytime event or a photo call, he often goes casual on the red carpet.
For more formal engagements, he dons a standard, well-fitted suit, like so:
The second suit (grey) looks better, but the first one could use a little tailoring, in our opinion (shorter sleeves, pants hemmed and tapered).
His Street Style
Like his red carpet style, for casual wear, Hutcherson tends to favor monochromatic looks in neutral tones.
If you like Josh Hutcherson's style, it's pretty easy to copy. Stick with analogous colors and basic layers (like an open button up over a t-shirt).
