“I finished the Marvel contract and then hastily went into what had all the promise of being another big, fun, well-executed potential franchise in ‘Dolittle’”, Downey Jr., 58, told the magazine. “I had some reservations. Me and my team seemed a little too excited about the deal and not quite excited enough about the merits of the execution. But at that point I was bulletproof. I was the guru of all genre movies.”Sarah Jessica Parker Recalls Giving Ex Robert Downey Jr.
“The Shaggy Dog” also stars Tim Allen, whose character — a district attorney — transforms into a Bearded Collie after getting bit by a sacred dog. Downey Jr. stars as the evil doctor behind the transformation. Although the family-comedy is barely memorable, it marked an important moment for Downey Jr. as it was the first time a major studio like Disney would hire him amid his career controversy following his April 1996 arrest for possession of heroin, cocaine and an unloaded gun.
As “Dolittle” failed, Downey Jr. refocused his attention to documenting his dying father, indie filmmaker Robert Downey Sr., in Netflix’s acclaimed documentary “Sr.”, which the Oscar nominee called “a piece of content.”
