HARRY Potter star Warwick Davis has helped get his son the job of his body double in the new TV series.
Harrison, 22, has signed an eight-year contract, which sources said should make him “financially secure for life”.
Rumours on set suggest kind-hearted Warwick, 55, is also hoping HBO finds a role for his daughter Annabelle, 28.
Harrison played a magic goblin in 2011’s Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2.
He will stand in for his dad in scenes where his character Professor Filius Flitwick does not have a close-up — allowing Warwick to take a breather.
A source said “Harrison is a fine actor.
“Father and son are the same height and in costume and after make-up, are impossible to tell apart.
“Harrison’s appointment makes sense and it allows Warwick the chance to take a breather during arduous, long shoots.
“As long as Warwick is in Harry Potter then Harrison will feature too. And they have both signed up for an eight year filming schedule.
“Warwick is pleased and grateful to HBO bosses.
“Talks regarding a possible role for Annabelle are so far unresolved.”
The news comes 20 months after the death of Warwick’s wife and Harrison’s mum Samantha, aged 53.
An inquest into Samantha’s death heard how she died due to arrhythmic cardiac arrest following major spinal surgery.
She had between seven and nine spinal operations in her lifetime.
Samantha – founder of dwarfism charity Little People UK – met Warwick in 1988 on the set of Disney film Willow.
The couple married three years later and had Annabelle and Harrison together.
