Live-Action 'How to Train Your Dragon' Set for June 2025 Release
The live-action adaptation of the beloved animated film How to Train Your Dragon is set to soar into theatres on June 13, 2025. Directed by Dean DeBlois, who helmed the original animated trilogy, the film aims to recreate the enchanting story of Hiccup, a young Viking, and his bond with Toothless, a dragon.
The recently released teaser trailer has sparked excitement among fans, showcasing how the filmmakers have retained Toothless’s charm while giving him a realistic touch. The trailer highlights the pivotal moment when Hiccup first meets Toothless, an encounter crucial to the storyline, echoing similar scenes from the 2010 original.
The cast features Mason Thames as Hiccup, Nico Parker as Astrid, and Gerard Butler reprising his role as Stoick the Vast, Hiccup’s father. Additional cast members include Nick Frost as Gobber, Julian Dennison as Fishlegs, and Bronwyn James as Ruffnut, among others. The film promises to deliver a heartwarming narrative about friendship and understanding, set against a backdrop of Viking traditions and the challenges brought by an emerging threat.
With a rich legacy that includes three animated films, numerous TV series, and merchandise, the How to Train Your Dragon franchise has generated over $1.6 billion globally. Enthusiasts of the series are eagerly anticipating how this high-stakes live-action adaptation will honour the original while introducing new elements.
Filming took place in Belfast, Northern Ireland, employing practical sets alongside IMAX filming techniques to capture the breathtaking world of Berk. The adaptation’s visuals and emotional depth are expected to serve both long-time fans and newcomers to the franchise.
As the release date approaches, expectations are high for a film that aims to meld nostalgia with a fresh cinematic experience in bringing the iconic tale of Hiccup and Toothless to a new generation.
