It would be more appropriate to ask about "the status of "Dumbo" in Disney's works.
Calculating carefully, Dumbo cannot be said to be a complete Tim Burton film. The IP is there, and the film structure is also built by others.
The specific point is that the core of the story, the script, and the emotional direction are basically limited. There are not many things about Tim Burton (the humanity is gentle and the childlike innocence is very good), he just ordered to finish the filming.
If you really need to weigh it, familiar parents and children, courage and growth are still more director-specific. In addition, Ms. Eva Green should have enjoyed the cooperation experience of "Miss Pei", and the film was completed quite well (it is estimated that there should be cooperation afterwards).
For a job, the director also has to eat, and Disney is the big boss.
