Warwick Davis, the star of Ricky Gervais's forthcoming sitcom Life's Too Short, has had a remarkable life and career. At the tender age of eleven, Davis achieved cult movie hero status by playing the lead Ewok, Wicket W. Warrick, in Star Wars: Return of the Jedi. In this lively and down-to-earth memoir, Davis offers personal stories on the making of some of the most popular film franchises of the last few decades, including Star Wars, Harry Potter, and Leprechaun, while also sharing the unique perspective of life as experienced by someone with a one-in-a-million genetic condition.
The real life of the man who helped destroy a Death Star, saved a princess, defeated an evil sorceress, taught magic to Harry Potter, became a Jedi Master, and embodied a mass murdering, gold-obsessed leprechaun is a fascinating and multifaceted one. Davis's honest look at the highs and lows of life as an actor and pop culture icon, from his screen debut in Star Wars: Return of the Jedi to his starring role in Ricky Gervais's forthcoming sitcom, is both refreshingly frank and highly entertaining.
Actors work their entire careers hoping to achieve the kind of cult movie hero status that Davis has attained, and in this memoir, he shares behind-the-scenes stories that give readers a unique perspective on his experiences. From sweltering inside a furry Ewok costume and filling in for R2-D2 to sliding down a glacier at Mach 2 with Val Kilmer and getting kicked in the face by Ricky Gervais (again and again), Davis's stories are engaging and full of humor.
The book also features a foreword by George Lucas, who has been friends with Davis for almost three decades. This endorsement from the legendary filmmaker further cements Davis's status as a beloved and respected figure in the entertainment industry.
Both refreshingly frank and highly entertaining, this book will help readers see what life is like when it really is too short. Davis's journey from a young actor to a pop culture icon is a testament to his talent, resilience, and unwavering dedication to his craft. Readers will be captivated by his stories and inspired by his ability to overcome the challenges he has faced throughout his remarkable career.
