In the early 80s, Warwick Davis made a name for himself and launched his acting career as Wicket, the Ewok in the Episode VIII. 251n4v
Warwick Davis recently appeared in his first interview on Australian television and in most of the interview, he talked about how he felt about The role in Star Wars: Episode VIII, to which he replies, “I do, yes. That’s all I can say.”
Well, we figured he’d be tight-lipped if he did know anything. These actors are contractually obligated to keep it hush hush. It’s still exciting to know there’s confirmation of his return.
We know how secretive they are about Star Wars movies and with Abrams as director, that hasn’t changed. So it’s safe to say this is all the info we’re getting, at least for now, but it’s nice to know he has been brought back into the action. It’s probably going to be a small role, perhaps another cameo of sorts, but we’re excited to see what it will be.
