It’s at that point that Michael Keaton’s V. A. Vandevere will enter the picture as a man who sees Dumbo as a feature that can be used for financial gain.
He convinces Danny DeVito’s Medici of the possibilities.
However, based on the trailers, it seems that Dumbo will become a star much earlier in the new live-action remake.
In the animated film, no people actually learn of Dumbo’s abilities until the very end of the movie.
