How to Train Your Dragon is a surprising tale about growing up, finding the courage to face the unknown…and how nothing can ever train you to let go. What began as an unlikely friendship between an adolescent Viking and a fearsome Night Fury dragon has become an epic adventure spanning their lives. Welcome to the most astonishing chapter of one of the most beloved animated franchises in film history: How to Train Your Dragon: The Hidden World.
Now chief and ruler of Berk alongside Astrid, Hiccup has created a gloriously chaotic dragon utopia. When the sudden appearance of female Light Fury coincides with the darkest threat their village has ever faced, Hiccup and Toothless must leave the only home they’ve known and journey to a hidden world thought only to exist in myth. As their true destines are revealed, dragon and rider will fight together—to the very ends of the Earth—to protect everything they’ve grown to treasure.
For How to Train Your Dragon: The Hidden World, series director Dean DeBlois returns alongside the all-star cast. The film is produced by Brad Lewis (Ratatouille, ANTZ) and Bonnie Arnold (Toy Story, How to Train Your Dragon, How to Train Your Dragon 2).
Producer Brad Lewis, known for his work on beloved films such as Ratatouille, reflects on the appeal of joining this massive creative undertaking. “It is such a thrill to make an adventure that is equal parts sincere and epic—one that helps an audience feel such a gamut of emotion,” Lewis says. “We’re so lucky that the first two Dragons have been so embraced…and I’m thrilled to now be a part of such an unexpected new chapter in this series. This film is not only welcoming to Dragon newcomers, it’s also deeply satisfying to diehard fans.”
The film stars Jay Baruchel, America Ferrera, Cate Blanchett, Kit Harrington, Craig Ferguson, Jonah Hill, Kristen Wiig and F. Murray Abraham.
