Robert Downey Jr.'s post-MCU movie is Dolittle, a movie of Dr. Dolittle that has undergone hefty reshoots and looks about as ill-advised as the 1960s version of the exact same story. Instead of a brand new trailer, we rather have a Dolittle auditions video, which comprises Downey acting alongside a few questionable-looking computer-animated creatures. Nothing looks very persuasive, which is even more disheartening once you understand this movie seemingly cost $175 million to create.
The movie was intended to be a massive rousing musical strike, but suffered numerous setbacks and manufacturing woes and finally ended up flopping at the box office. Because Tinseltown never learns from its mistakes, here we go around again using Dolittle, another prohibitively costly spin with this substance.
This brand new take has Robert Downey Jr. as the doctor who can speak to animals, also it provides the production a excuse to throw a lot of CGI monsters with star voices in the us. We get to meet a few of the beasts here, and boy oh boy do they never seem very great. To be honest, this is not footage in the movie itself -- it is only intended to be an amusing bit ad. However, if that is the way the animals wind up looking in the last movie...yikes.
That is not to mention Dolittle is doomed. There is always a possibility that the movie will prove to be absolutely fine. I remember the Eddie Murphy Dr. Dolittle movie being rather pleasurable, so perhaps this movie is going to do exactly the same. I enjoy Downey, and I'd love for him to begin taking on more and more acting roles today that his Marvel times have been completed -- the only other recent non-MCU charge to his title is that the forgettable The Judge.
After dropping his wife seven decades before, the bizarre Dr. John Dolittle (Downey), famous physician and vet of Queen Victoria's England, hermits away himself behind the walls of Dolittle Manor with his menagerie of exotic animals for business. But as soon as the young queen (Jessie Buckley, Wild Rose) falls seriously ill, a unwilling Dolittle is made to set sail in an epic experience to some mythical island seeking a remedy, regaining his humor and courage because he strikes old adversaries and finds wondrous creatures.
The physician is joined on his quest by a youthful, self-appointed apprentice (Dunkirk's Harry Collett) and a raucous coterie of animal buddies, such as an apprehensive gorilla (Oscar winner Rami Malek), a fervent but bird-brained duck (Oscar winner Octavia Spencer), a bickering duo of a cynical ostrich (The Large Sick's Kumail Nanjiani) along with an upbeat polar bear (John Cena, Bumblebee) plus a headstrong parrot (Oscar winner Emma Thompson), that functions as Dolittle's most trusted adviser and confidante.
