This has all the signs of a total trainwreck. I also think there will be a brief (but not serious) backlash over recasting a character that, while not originally black, is most famous for starring a black actor.

No, seriously, y'alls can get off my lawn.

 

(yes, the original is before my time, but... really????)

Are.......are people even aware there was one before Murphy? Hell, I didn't even know that the franchise was based on a book until much, much later, like college. To let that sink in, I was eight when the Eddie Murphy one came out.

I can guarantee the reactions to the trailer  contain a lot of "I thought Dr Dolittle was black?"

I really doubt there will be any real levels of backlash on this one.  Maybe jokes.  But backlash? I doubt it.

 

But maybe I'm giving social media too much credit.  Wouldn't be the first time.
