David Holmes: The Boy Who Lived UK premiere
The Sky UK premiere of David Holmes: The Boy Who Lived the documentary, produced in association with HBO, took place on 16th November. A Q&A took place with executive producer Daniel, David Holmes himself and director Dan Hartley. Daniel joined from New York via Zoom. There are quotes via express.co.uk and variety.com.
Daniel:
“I had always wanted to do something about Dave because I wanted to share him with the world for the person that he is. And Dave’s natural humility meant that he was kind of unsure about that for a while — he wanted to make something broader about stunts in general. But eventually, I sort of convinced him that he should be front and center of it,”Some Harry Potter co-stars attended the event.
