Walton Goggins has been having a fantastic second half of his career, and he's got the net worth to prove it. Walton Goggins began acting in TV and movies in 1989, when he appeared four times in the police procedural, In the Heat of the Night, each time as a different character. This led to a long run of Walton appearing frequently in movies and TV shows, but always as a one-episode character or supporting cast member. Then in 2002, Goggins starred as Shane Vendrell in The Shield, which led to Justified, where he played the intimidating Boyd Crowder.

Walton Goggins' Age & Height
Goggins Is A Scorpio
Walton Goggins is 5' 10" on IMDb but 5' 9 1/2" on CelebHeights, so 5' 9 3/4" is a good split. He was born on November 10, 1971, making him 52 in the summer of 2024. That also makes him a Scorpio. Scorpios are a water sign filled with passion and power (via Allure). These signs are ambitious and enticing, much like Goggins, who has worked non-stop since first appearing on TV, often playing characters who, while dangerous, are seductive.
Goggins was born in Birmingham, Alabama.
Scorpio signs are also known for their piercing gaze and seductive charm. Goggins has a very unique look, one that is intimidating, inviting, and mysterious all at the same time. Sometimes his characters only need to stare to get their intentions across.
Walton Goggins Knocked Out His Two Front Teeth Twice
Goggins Was Was Hit By A Baseball And Dove Into A Pool
Among the many things Walton Goggins is known for is his broad, white, toothy smile that seems to take up his whole face. That smile has been knocked to pieces twice in his life. While on Conan, Goggins told the stories of how he's had his two front teeth knocked out (via EW),
"I showed up late to baseball practice in 5th grade, and I had to take a lap and I was running to centerfield and all I heard was 'Walton'. And I turn around and I caught a baseball right in my mouth and literally my two front teeth were on the ground next to me."
The second time he had his teeth knocked out was only a year and a half later,
"And everything was fine until a year and a half later, I dove off into the shallow end of a pool and hit the bottom and knocked them out again."
It sounds painful, but Walton Goggins has a good laugh about it. It's the way he has seemed to handle most things in his life, with an effortless charm and unwillingness to let setbacks get him down.
