The title of Dolittle was recently changed from The Voyage of Doctor Dolittle, but that’s hardly the most significant way things have shifted behind the curtain.
The release date for Dolittle was originally set for May and then, oddly, April 2019.
Given the extra time, it was reported that Universal hired directors Jonathan Liebesman and Chris McKay to do some extensive reshoots, replacing Stephen Gaghan.
With Avengers: Endgame dominating the season, the studio dodged a big bullet and changed it to January 17, 2020.
