Sarah Douglas, precisely 5ft 9 ½ (176.5 cm) tall, is an English actress whose height has been central to her commanding screen presence. She famously stated in 1986 that at 5ft 9 she wears very high heels for roles, making her photograph as if 6-foot-3. This stature amplified her as the imposing Ursa in Superman II, the fierce Queen Taramis in Conan the Destroyer, and other powerful antagonists like in Return of the Living Dead 3.
