The live-action “How to Train Your Dragon” remake is written, directed, and produced by Dean DeBlois, who also directed the original animated trilogy. This film will follow the adventures of Hiccup (Mason Thames) as he befriends a rare Night Fury dragon named Toothless. The unlikely pair set out to create a bond between Vikings and dragons.
DeBlois recently said they barely changed the script for the live-action remake, which is both a relief and begs the question…why remake it at all then?

“How to Train Your Dragon” also stars Nico Parker as Astrid, Julian Dennison as Fishlegs, Gabriel Howell as Snotlout, Bronwyn James as Ruffnut, and Harry Trevaldwy as Tuffnut. Nick Frost will reprise his role as Gobber from the animated films, alongside Gerard Butler returning as Stoick the Vast.
“How To Train Your Dragon” hits theaters on June 13th, 2025. You can check out the official trailer now:
