Actor Robert Downey Jr. says his film 'Dolittle' sends a message of 'cohabitation' as Australia wildfires threaten to wipe out entire species of animals
Star and executive producer of the 'Dolittle', Robert Downey Jr. says the movie sends a message of"cohabitation" as wildfires threaten species unique to Australia.
In the film "Dolittle," it's the good doctor and a menagerie of animals on a mission to save a human. In harsh reality, humans are battling catastrophic wildfires that threaten species unique to Australia. "The timing has been really interesting, and we don't want to take any credit for the synchronicity of that," Downey noted. "It just seems like sometimes the universe is on a certain message. And, so, the idea of cohabitation and conservation has always been at the heart of these kinds of movies. Communication, right?"
The movie is heavy on A-list actors, with some in live-action roles and others providing their voices to the computer-generated animals.
