The Life's Too Short star told the Radio Times that a part in the BBC sci-fi drama is his "dream" role.
"Steven Moffat is somebody I want to talk to," he said. "I love Sherlock and I would love to be in Doctor Who - it's been a dream of mine for many years."
He quipped: "I don't want to play the Doctor, but a villain or something like that would be pretty good."
Davis - who first rose to fame as the Ewok Wicket in Star Wars: Episode VI - Return of the Jedi - has appeared in the Harry Potter films and an episode of BBC One's Merlin.
He is expected to return to Life's Too Short in the near future, with series co-creator Ricky Gervais having revealed that a second run is planned for spring 2013.
The first season of the comedy will air on HBO in the US from February 19.
