VIDEO : Robert Downey Jr.?s Doctor Dolittle Will Be Out In 2019

Based on the series of books by Hugh Lofting first published almost a century ago, Doctor Dolittle has seen several live-action movie adaptations over the years. The first came in 1967 with Rex Harrison in the title role, though most modern moviegoers probably associate the character with Eddie Murphy?s 1998 interpretation ? a box office success that spawned multiple sequels, albeit with diminishing returns.
