Warwick Davis Quotes

• When I go from a role with heavy prosthetic makeup, which I’ve done quite a bit of as well, and then do a role where I’m not wearing any, I have to be conscious of toning everything down.

• But things such as ‘Harry Potter’, all I can do is shape my character, seek the director’s approval on that, and basically take it from there. Professor Flitwick in ‘Harry Potter’, I kind of defined how I saw him from reading the book, and luckily that matched up with the director’s vision.
