Universal/DreamWorks Animation’s How to Trian Your Dragon will return to the big screen, but as a live-action feature adaptation with the franchise’s 3x Oscar nominated and Golden Globe winning filmmaker Dean DeBlois returning to write, direct and produce the newest entry.
How to Train Your Dragon is based on the book series by Cressida Cowell. A theatrical release date of March 14, 2025 has been set.
At this point, there are no other wide releases on that date. The first How to Train Your Dragon follows a hapless young Viking, Hiccup (voiced by Jay Baruchel) who aspires to hunt dragons and becomes the unlikely friend of a young dragon, Toothless, and learns there may be more to the creatures than he assumed.
The animated franchise through three movies has amassed more than $1.6 billion. The series has notched four Academy Award nominations and a Golden Globe Award for the second filmed chapter.
