Universal Pictures Home Entertainment has confirmed that the Robert Downey Jr. comedy Dolittle will arrive on Digital Download 1st June, 2020 and on 4K Ultra HD, Blu-ray, DVD on 15th June, 2020.
Joining Downey are an all-star cast that includes the voice talents of Emma Thompson (Last Christmas, Late Night), Rami Malek (Bohemian Rhapsody, “Mr. Robot”), Selena Gomez (“Wizards of Waverly Place”), John Cena (“WWE”), and Tom Holland (Spider-Man: Homecoming) and more.
After losing his wife, Dolittle hermits himself away behind the high wall of his manor but is forced to set sail on an epic adventure when the queen falls gravely ill.
Helping Dolittle in search of a rare cure are his rambunctious animal friends—including Chee-Chee (Malek), an anxious, self-conscious gorilla; Dab-Dab (Octavia Spencer, The Help), an enthusiastic but bird-brained duck; the bickering duo of cynical, neurotic ostrich Plimpton (Kumail Nanjiani, The Big Sick, “Silicon Valley”) and chilly-but-chill polar bear Yoshi (Cena); as well as a headstrong parrot named Polynesia (Thompson).
