Starring Eddie Murphy as the titular character, the movie reimagines Hugh Lofting's beloved character in a modern setting, where Dr. John Dolittle, a successful San Francisco physician, rediscovers his childhood ability to converse with animals. This newfound gift, initially a source of chaos and disbelief, soon becomes a heartwarming journey of self-discovery and connection, as Dolittle navigates his dual life with humor and warmth.
