Stephen Gaghan will still receive the directing credit on The Voyage of Doctor Dolittle and reportedly only needed help with the hybrid aspect of the movie.
Robert Downey Jr.’s The Voyage of Doctor Dolittle brought Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle director Jonathan Liebesman on board to handle some reshoots.
However, The Voyage of Doctor Dolittle has kept Stephen Gaghan on at every stage of the new shoots, making sure his original vision is not compromised.
Robert Downey Jr. is going to be talking to a lot of CGI animals in The Voyage of Doctor Dolittle, but Stephen Gaghan reportedly wasn’t able to pull off the right tone on his own.
