The latest character posters for DreamWorks' How To Train Your Dragon celebrate the dragons, and not necessarily their riders. It makes sense though because the dragons look amazing. Above are Hiccup and Toothless, the Night Fury.

Astrid and Stormfly, the Deadly Nadder

Snotlout and Hookfang, the Monstrous Nightmare

Fishlegs and Meatlug, the Gruesome Gronkle

Ruffnut & Tuffnut with Barf & Belch, the Hideous Zippleback

And finally, the tiniest dragon, the Terrible Terror.

Toothless & Hiccup

DreamWorks

The How To Train Your Dragon series is really the story of Toothless and Hiccup and their friendship, and how it grows and changes over the years. This live-action remake of the first movie keeps the focus on that friendship, which looks just as amazing as it did when the animated film was first released 15 years ago.

Bringing Berk To Life

DreamWorks

This summer's live-action How To Train Your Dragon is looks incredible. From the dragons to the arena, the appearance of the film is stunning. Let's go behind-the-scenes to see how the filmmakers brought the island of Berk to life.

Here's the official synopsis from Universal:

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 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 (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. 

The film also stars Julian Dennison, Gabriel Howell, Bronwyn James, Harry Trevaldwyn, Ruth Codd, Peter Serafinowicz and Murray McArthur.
