If Toothless was already adorable in animated form, get ready to fall even more in love with our favorite dragon in live-action. The first trailer is out, and we can’t wait to see it on the big screen!
What to Expect from the How to Train Your Dragon Live-Action Trailer
The heart of the original animated trilogy remains intact, and that’s no accident. Dean DeBlois, director of the original films, is back to helm this new installment, ensuring the magic of the first movies is preserved.
The cast brings some exciting surprises too. Gerard Butler returns as Stoic, reprising the iconic role he brought to life with his voice in the animations. Mason Thames (from The Black Phone) steps into the role of Hiccup, and in the trailer, we can already see the touching first moments between him and Toothless, who now looks more lifelike than ever.

Casting Controversy, but the Hype Is Real
Despite the initial casting concerns, it seems the creative decisions are paying off. This live-action adaptation not only promises to honor the beloved trilogy, but it could also set the stage for a new dragon saga that continues to surprise and delight.
Ready to Soar with Toothless Again?
Filming wrapped in early 2024, and the team has clearly spent months perfecting the VFX and CGI, which is evident in the leaked trailer. After all that hard work, the How to Train Your Dragon live-action movie will be ready to hit theaters next June.
Though DreamWorks Animation may have been planning to release the trailer closer to the holidays, it found its way online ahead of schedule. This could mean we’ll get even more sneak peeks before the official release. Get ready to relive the magic!
