Maverick and Michael
Funny but true:
Maverick and DeDe's daughter Dixie was up for this shoot. The day before the shoot Jeffrey got a cell phone call saying
"I'm sorry Jeffrey, but Dixie didn't get the part. Some dog named Maverick did. Don't you have a dog named Maverick too?"
Jeffrey replied that "Yes, I do, but Maverick wasn't up for the part."
When Jeffrey got home his home phone was ringing off the hook. An agent
had been trying to reach Jeffrey all day to ask if he could please have
Maverick at the shoot the next day.
Maverick, who was not up for the part got the part his daughter was submitted for : ).
Maverick’s pictures with Michael J Fox are/were in the
NY Post, Daily News, People Magazine, National Inquirer and Star Magazine.

Michael J Fox proves he's still laughing in the face of Parkinson's disease as he hams it up for new calendar

At 5ft 4in, Michael J Fox hasn't always stood eye to eye with his co-stars.
And the comic actor clearly enjoyed having a laugh at his diminutive status in a new photoshoot.
The Back To The Future star hammed it up with 5ft 11in German supermodel Tatjana Patitz for the set of pictures for a new exclusive calendar for German optical
company Carl Zeiss AG.
The pictures were taken by Canadian singer-turned-photographer
Bryan Adams, and showed Fox and Patitz in a variety of comical poses.
Fancy a drink? Michael J Fox has to sit on a bar
to be the same height as supermodel Tatjana Patitz in shots for a
calendar for the German optical company Carl Zeiss
'The
photographs were intended to be cheerful and sexy
representations of how Zeiss lenses expertly capture any subject matter,
large and small,' says executive producer Anke Degenhard-Drinkhahn.
One
shot shows Fox sitting on a Manhattan's Cipriani bar to be the same
height as his statuesque counterpart, while another shows him scoffing a
big plate of spaghetti at a table while Patitz picks at a salad.
'We
had to rush in and out to do our shoot in the morning, before they
opened for business at 10am,' recalls producer Trixi Mahd Soltani.
Pasta joke: The diminutive star scoffs a large plate of spaghetti while his taller dinner date picks over a salad
Walkies: Fox is taken for a walk by a Great Dane while Patitz is untroubled by her little pug
But the spaghetti wasn't too appetising for Fox.
'I don't think Michael was up to actually eating it that early in the morning,' adds Soltani.
Another
snap shows the Family Ties actor being taken for a walk by a Great Dane
dog, while Patitz has no trouble with her smaller pug.
Fox and Patitz both
immediately agreed to be part of the project, with New York City
selected as the location for its sense of micro/macro - near/far
variety.

At one point, Patitz, 44, is
seen towering above 49-year-old Fox in seven-inch platform stilettos as
he bends down to tie his shoelaces.
And
in another shot, the actor's head is barely seen above a limousine's
sun roof while the model, wearing sunglasses, has a good view of the
city scape.
Fox, who
will this year be a guest star in Larry David comedy Curb Your
Enthusiasm, is also seen attempting to dance with the model.
The Carl Zeiss Art-Calendar 2011, which will be unveiled at a special showing in Hamburg next month, will be printed in an edition of 1,000 photographs for the company's top clients.
