How to Train Your Dragon Live action teaser trailer revealed

Universal Pictures recently revealed the first teaser trailer to the live action How To Train Your Dragon movie.

The Official plot synopsis is below:

From three-time Oscar® nominee and Golden Globe winner Dean DeBlois, the creative visionary behind DreamWorks Animation’s acclaimed How to Train Your Dragon trilogy, comes a stunning live-action reimagining of the film that launched the beloved franchise.

On the rugged isle of Berk, where Vikings and dragons have been bitter enemies for generations, Hiccup (Mason Thames; The Black Phone, For All Mankind) stands apart. The inventive yet overlooked son of Chief Stoick the Vast (Gerard Butler, reprising his voice role from the animated franchise), Hiccup defies centuries of tradition when he befriends Toothless, a feared Night Fury dragon. Their unlikely bond reveals the true nature of dragons, challenging the very foundations of Viking society.

With the fierce and ambitious Astrid (BAFTA nominee Nico Parker; Dumbo, The Last of Us) and the village’s quirky blacksmith Gobber (Nick Frost; Snow White and the Huntsman, Shaun of the Dead) by his side, Hiccup confronts a world torn by fear and misunderstanding.

As an ancient threat emerges, endangering both Vikings and dragons, Hiccup’s friendship with Toothless becomes the key to forging a new future. Together, they must navigate the delicate path toward peace, soaring beyond the boundaries of their worlds and redefining what it means to be a hero and a leader.

The film also stars Julian Dennison (Deadpool 2), Gabriel Howell (Bodies), Bronwyn James (Wicked), Harry Trevaldwyn (Smothered), Ruth Codd (The Midnight Club), BAFTA nominee Peter Serafinowicz (Guardians of the Galaxy) and Murray McArthur (Game of Thrones).

How to Train Your Dragon is written, produced and directed by DeBlois. It is also produced by three-time Oscar® nominee Marc Platt (Wicked, La La Land) and Emmy winner Adam Siegel (Drive, 2 Guns). How To Train Your Dragon is part of the Filmed For IMAX® Program, which offers filmmakers IMAX® technology to help them deliver the most immersive movie experience to audiences around the world.

Inspired by Cressida Cowell’s New York Times bestselling book series, DreamWorks Animation’s How to Train Your Dragon franchise has captivated global audiences, earning four Academy Award® nominations and grossing more than $1.6 billion at the global box-office. Now, through cutting-edge visual effects, DeBlois transforms his beloved animated saga into a breathtaking live-action spectacle, bringing the epic adventures of Hiccup and Toothless to life with jaw-dropping realism as they discover the true meaning of friendship, courage and destiny.

How To Train Your Dragon is currently scheduled to release June 13th 2025 in 3D and 2D.

Top 13 3D Movies for Halloween

Happy Halloween ! What are the Top 13 3D Halloween Movies?

Jake Jarvis made this fun list to get you in the spooky holiday spirit . 👻

13. WORLD WAR Z (2013)

A PG-13 Zombie flick starring Brad Pitt that is set in the same universe as the Max Brooks novel. Gary Lane (Brad Pitt) is a globetrotting UN employee who is trying to stop the zombie pandemic. This movie has good 3D and has a fast moving story.

12. THE MAZE (1953)

This movie is about a man who abruptly breaks off his engagement and moves into a inherited castle. The former Fiancée investigates this spooky mystery. I guarantee the ending will surprise you. This movie has some great 3D and is very interesting.

11. IT CAME FROM OUTER SPACE (1953)

Richard Carlson stars as a schoolteacher and amateur stargazer. Richard witnesses a spaceship crash to earth that he at first believes is a meteorite. This movie has many pop out 3D scenes and it overall has great 3D visuals. 

10. THE MAD MAGICIAN (1954)

This is another 1950’s Vincent Price 3D movie.  This is more or less a black & white cash grab made after House of Wax's success. Regardless this is rousing good show with great 3D.

9. REVENGE OF THE CREATURE (1955)

The only 1950’s 3D movie to get a 3D sequel. This movie isn’t nearly as good as the first movie, but it is still very good film with great 3D.

8. FRANKENWEENIE (2012)

This is a full feature length version of the Tim Burton short of the same name. This storyline is padded, but overall is very enjoyable.

7. DEAD BEFORE DAWN (2012)

This is a low budget zombie movie that is also a comedy. This Zom-Com has great 3D and is very funny. 

6. PARANORMAN (2011)

This is another Laika stop motion masterpiece. This is a great little spooky movie. This is something made for kids that adults will also enjoy.

5. THE NIGHTMARE BEFORE CHRISTMAS (1993)

This is a good 3D conversion of a modern Halloween classic. This movie is directed by Henry Selick, not Tim Burton with an excellent soundtrack.

4. CORALINE (2009)

This is a Henry Selick's adaption of the Neil Gaiman's story. This is a truly great Laika stop motion movie with great 3D. A perfect Halloween film that won't scare the little ones too much.

3. DARK COUNTRY (2009)

Thomas Jane stars and directs this quirky mystery thriller. This movie was actually filmed in 3D and it looks great in 3D. This movie has a riveting premise and is well worth hunting up a copy. 

2. THE CREATURE FROM THE BLACK LAGOON (1954)

This movie has the best underwater 3D photography (before Avatar 2 The Way of Water). Overall this is a good 1950’s Universal monster movie.

HONORABLE MENTIONS

1. HOUSE OF WAX (1953)

The first 3D horror movie and the gold standard. This movie made Vincent Price a horror icon. Considered by many to be the greatest 3D movie ever made.
