Universal Studios is embarking on an ambitious venture: the creation of the first-ever live-action adaptation of DreamWorks’ iconic animated film, ‘How to Train Your Dragon.’ Promising a nostalgic reunion, the film is set to bring back the beloved gang, including the inseparable duo Hiccup and Toothless, in a captivating and unprecedented adventure. Rumors are also swirling about Universal Orlando’s plans to construct a ‘How to Train a Dragon Land’ within its upcoming theme park, Epic Universe.
Scheduled to hit theaters on March 14, 2025, the live-action rendition of ‘How to Train Your Dragon’ seeks to provide fans with a fresh and immersive perspective on the cherished animated series. The original storyline revolves around Hiccup, an aspiring young Viking whose initial goal of dragon hunting takes an unexpected turn when he forms an extraordinary bond with Toothless, a dragon. The ensuing narrative unveils a deeper connection between humans and dragons than previously imagined. The animated franchise, spanning three movies, has not only captured hearts but has also amassed an impressive $1.6 billion in box office revenue.
The inception of ‘How to Train Your Dragon’ can be traced back to the book series penned by Cressida Cowell. Following her success with ‘Over the Hedge,’ producer Bonnie Arnold expressed keen interest in adapting the series to the big screen. The project gained momentum, and when DreamWorks Animation co-president Bill Damaschke sought Cowell’s next venture, she unequivocally chose ‘How to Train Your Dragon.’
The film made a resounding impact at the North American box office, making a noteworthy debut with $43.7 million in its opening weekend and ultimately grossing $217.6 million in the United States alone. Notably, ‘How to Train Your Dragon’ stands as DreamWorks Animation’s highest-grossing film in the American and Canadian box office, excluding the Shrek series. Furthermore, it secured the fifth position among the highest-grossing animated films of 2010.
Universal Studios, renowned for its commitment to delivering diverse and captivating content, has a robust slate for 2023. Highlights include the releases of ‘Trolls 3,’ ‘M3GAN,’ ‘Knock at the Cabin,’ ‘Cocaine Bear,’ ‘The Super Mario Bros. Movie,’ ‘Renfield,’ ‘Fast X,’ and more. Looking ahead, Universal has already unveiled its plans for 2024 and 2025, featuring an extensive lineup that includes ‘Night Swim,’ ‘The Fall Guy,’ ‘Kung Fu Panda 4,’ ‘Despicable Me 4,’ ‘Twisters,’ ‘M3GAN 2.0,’ ‘Live Action How to Train Your Dragon,’ and numerous other highly anticipated projects.
