Ricky has chosen his film roles carefully and rightfully and kept his integrity. So far his only major roles of are in Night At The Museum with Ben Stiller, which he did as a favour to Ben, a small role in For Your Consideration because Christopher Guest is a comedy hero of his and latest role in Stardust with Robert De Niro because... it's Robert De Niro!
Ricky is a rare celeb who never sells out and I don't think ever will, we need more like him. Watch out for his new major role with Greg Kinnear in a romantic comedy called Ghost Town. It's the only script in years that Ricky has felt like was good enough for him to take, should be good!
Here is Ricky Gervais' complete filmography to date:
Year: 2007 || Title: Stardust || Role: Ferdy the Fence
