Event Navigation

A physician who can talk to animals embarks on an adventure to find a legendary island with a young apprentice and a crew of strange pets.

After losing his wife seven years earlier, the eccentric Dr. John Dolittle (Robert Downey, Jr.), famed doctor and veterinarian of Queen Victoria’s England, hermits himself away behind the high walls of Dolittle Manor with only his menagerie of exotic animals for company. But when the young queen falls gravely ill, a reluctant Dolittle is forced to set sail on an epic adventure to a mythical island in search of a cure, regaining his wit and courage as he crosses old adversaries and discovers wondrous creatures.
