Universal Pictures has released a new teaser trailer for their live-action adaptation of How to Train Your Dragon, which gives us another look at Hiccup meeting Toothless for the first time.
This new live-action film is once again written and directed by acclaimed filmmaker Dean DeBlois, director of the original three animated How to Train Your Dragon movies previously, and is inspired by Cressida Cowell's NY Times bestselling book series.
It stars Mason Thames (The Black Phone) as Hiccup, Gerard Butler as Stoick, Nico Parker as Astrid, as well as Nick Frost, Julian Dennison, Gabriel Howell, Bronwyn James, Harry Trevaldwyn, Ruth Codd, Peter Serafinowicz, and Murray McArthur.
The film’s synopsis reads: “On the rugged isle of Berk, where Vikings and dragons have been bitter enemies for generations, Hiccup (Mason Thames) stands apart.
“The inventive yet overlooked son of Chief Stoick the Vast (Gerard Butler, reprising his role from the movies), 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 (Nico Parker) and the village’s quirky blacksmith Gobber (Nick Frost) 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.
