Warwick Davis on deleted Dubrovnik scene from The Last Jedi

Written by  Sep 10, 2018

The famous British actor, Warwick Davis, has been speaking to the BBC about his role in The Last Jedi which was partly filmed in Dubrovnik and how his trip to the city was unfortunately a waste of time.

“In The Last Jedi there was a deleted scene I flew all the way to Dubrovnik to shot for one night, it was a sauna scene and they had me playing this very bizarre one-eyed naked alien. There was a moment when the heroes were escaping and the came galloping over the roof and cause the roof to shatter and the roof to fall down. I’m there horrified and keeping my dignity with a very tiny flannel and the whole sequence was cut from the film. It was a lovely comic moment but if you look at the broader picture then it would have slowed the film down,” joked Davis in an interview for the BBC.

And the scene is quite clearly visible from the deleted cuts of The Last Jedi, in the video below look at the scene from 1.50 to 2.05. And the scene also ties in with another video that was shot behind the scenes when a stuntman leaps over a stone wall in the ancient Old City of Dubrovnik.
