Extras

His character was appearing in a film with Daniel Radcliffe and Andy Millman. Andy had told his friend, Maggie Jacobs, that Warwick's fiance probably would have preferred him if they had both met her at the same time. Maggie, of course, told Warwick's fiance and Warwick later challenged Andy to a fight. In an attempt to avoid the conflict, Andy inadvertently kicked Warwick in the face.
