It wouldn’t be a celebration of the 40th anniversary of Star Wars: Return of the Jedi without Warwick Davis.
The actor was just 12 years old when he was promoted from background Ewok to leading legend Wicket W. Warrick, befriending Leia Organa, Han Solo, and the rest of the rebels to fight the Empire in the original trilogy’s thrilling conclusion.
The young actor impressed George Lucas so much that he soon returned as the leading man in Willow in 1988. In recent years, Davis has returned to both roles, donning the Ewok costume once again in Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker and leading a new generation on a magical adventure in the Willow series on Disney+.
Marking this special occasion, Davis has been confirmed to attend Star Wars Celebration Europe 2023 this April, alongside his children Annabelle Davis and Harrison Davis. Annabelle recently portrayed Willow’s daughter Mims Ufgood in the sequel series, while Harrison joined his father as Pommet the Ewok in the final film in the Skywalker saga.
And all three will be joined in London by Denise Gough, attending her first ever Star Wars Celebration. Gough brought fresh terror to the Empire’s tyranny with her portrayal of ISB Agent Dedra Meero in the first season of Andor, now streaming on Disney+.
Fantha Tracks wil be there in force, so stay tuned for more news regarding our plans at the show.
