- Frequently plays non-human characters
- Warwick's grandmother heard a radio announcement calling for people under 4 feet in height to try out for Le Retour du Jedi (1983). She took him, then 2-foot-11, to the audition. He was originally cast as a background Ewok, but his role was expanded during filming as he impressed the filmmakers, and when Kenny Baker fell ill, Warwick was chosen to take his place in the key role of the first Ewok met by Princess Leia.
- Runs Willow Personal Management, "The biggest agency for short actors in the world".
- He owned a line of Star Wars action figures as a kid. When he was cast in "Return of the Jedi", Mark Hamill bought Warwick a set of action figures that wasn't in his collection.
- Met his wife Samantha Davis when she was an extra on the set of Willow (1988).
- Cast as the body of Marvin the Paranoid Android in H2G2 : Le Guide du voyageur galactique (2005), while Marvin's voice was provided by Alan Rickman. Coincidentally, both actors play characters in the Harry Potter film series.
- I love the slapstick element. I don't think we see enough of that in comedy, so it was fun to have that opportunity. My life is quite physical anyway. When you are three-foot-six you kind of have to climb stuff now and again, and you find yourself in quite precarious situations just to manage in what is quite a big world.
- [2016, on 'Star Wars' co-star Carrie Fisher's sudden passing]: Princess Leia, Carrie Fisher now one with the Force. Your kindness and sharp wit will be missed.
