The comedy is about a dwarf actor,
played by Warwick Davis, who runs a talent agency for fellow dwarves but tends
to take the best roles for himself. It is to be aired later this year on BBC
Two in Britain and, according to reports, on HBO in the United States in 2012.
Gervais, a major star in Britain and the United States for his award-winning
comedy series "The Office" and "Extras", has described his
new project as a cross between the two. Like its predecessors, Life's Too Short
is a fake documentary and is written and directed by Gervais and long-term
collaborator Stephen Merchant.
Already announced as appearing in the series is
Hollywood actor Johnny Depp and US comic Steve Carell, who starred in the US
version of The Office.
