Birth place: Epsom, Surrey, England, UK
Short biography: Warwick Davis (born February 3, 1970, Epsom, Surrey, England) is an actor noted for being short: he is three feet, six inches (about one meter) tall. As his official website says, his foray into acting came about "purely by chance." When he was 11, his grandmother heard a radio ad in 1981 calling for people that were four feet tall or shorter to be in Star Wars Episode VI: Return of the Jedi. To Warwick, who was a big fan of the Star Wars movies, it was a dream come true. He was originally just going to be an extra Ewok, but when Kenny Baker, originally slated to be Wicket, fell ill, George Lucas picked Warwick to be the new Wicket after seeing how he carried himself as an Ewok. Warwick based his Ewok movements on his dog, who would tilt his head from side to side whenever he saw something strange. A little-known fact is that during production on the film, he made a mockumentary movie of his own as Wicket, made with help from Return of the Jedi's first assistant director, David Tomblin. The unreleased film was a fictional look at his decision to become an actor and act in the movie and his transformation into Wicket the Ewok. Warwick was so talented as Wicket that he reprised his role in the ABC made-for-TV movies Caravan of Courage: An Ewok Adventure and Ewoks: The Battle for Endor. He later, in 1985, appeared in the film Labyrinth with David Bowie and others.
