David Holmes: The Boy Who Lived follows the former stunt performer through the major milestones of his life. Holmes spent his teenage years as a gymnast, before being selected to play Daniel Radcliffe’s stunt double in Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone.

Holmes returned for each subsequent film, growing up alongside Radcliffe, until sustaining a debilitating spinal injury whilst preparing for Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part I.
