The film is Tim Burton’s first directorial effort since 2016’s “Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children,” which was an adaptation of a 2011 contemporary fantasy novel of the same name.

Here is the film’s synopsis:
The story follows Holt Farrier, a former circus star and war veteran, who has been enlisted by circus owner Max Medici to care for a newborn elephant with oversized ears. The baby elephant’s ears are a laughingstock and embarrassment to the already struggling circus. That is, until Holt’s children discover that Dumbo can fly! Aerial artist Colette Marchant and entrepreneur V.A. Vandevere then swoop in to make Dumbo, the flying elephant, a star.
