Warwick Davis will star alongside already-announced international star Priscilla Presley in the pantomime at the Manchester Opera House, along with panto regular Tam Ryan.
Davis, who recently brought his company The Reduced Height Theatre Company to the same theatre recently to perform the farce See How They Run, will star as Prof in Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, which will again be written by Eric Potts.
Comedian Tam Ryan, who has appeared in the last four Opera House pantos, will this year play the role of Muddles.
Star of Willow, the Harry Potter films and Star Wars on the big screen and Life's Too Short on the small screen, Davis said, "I am looking forward to working with the theatre, the cast and crew to bring you the best panto Manchester has ever seen.
"It’s a ‘tall order’ but I’m determined it won’t fall ‘short’ of audience expectations! I’m looking forward to seeing you all there!"
The panto will run from 5 December 2014 to 4 January 2015.
