The How to Train Your Dragon franchise from DreamWorks Animation consists of three feature films How to Train Your Dragon (2010), How to Train Your Dragon 2 (2014) and How to Train Your Dragon: The Hidden World (2019). The franchise is loosely based on the book series of the same name by British author Cressida Cowell. The franchise also consists of four short films: Legend of the Boneknapper Dragon (2011), Book of Dragons (2011), Gift of the Night Fury (2011) and Dawn of the Dragon Racers (2014). A television series following the events of the first film, Dragons: Riders of Berk, began airing on Cartoon Network in September 2012. It was renamed Dragons: Defenders of Berk for second season. Another television series, titled Dragons: Race to the Edge, serves as a prequel to the second film and aired on Netflix from June 2015 to February 2018.[1]

The franchise follows the adventures of a young Viking named Hiccup Horrendous Haddock III, son of Stoick the Vast, leader of the Viking island of Berk. Although initially dismissed as a clumsy and underweight misfit, he soon becomes renowned as a courageous expert in dragons, beginning with Toothless, a member of the rare Night Fury breed as his flying mount and his closest companion. Together with his friends, he manages the village's allied dragon population in defense of his home as leader of a flying corps of dragon riders. Upon becoming leaders of their kind, Hiccup and Toothless are forced to make choices that will truly ensure peace between people and dragons. Dean DeBlois, the director of the trilogy, described its story as "Hiccup's coming of age," taking a span of five years between the first and second film, and a year between the second and third film. [2]

The film series has been highly acclaimed with its first two features being nominated for the Academy Award for Best Animated Feature, in addition to the first film's nomination for the Academy Award for Best Original Score.

Main article: How to Train Your Dragon: The Hidden World

In December 2010, DreamWorks CEO Jeffrey Katzenberg confirmed that there would also be a third film in the series: "How To Train Your Dragon is at least three: maybe more, but we know there are at least three chapters to that story."[19] Dean DeBlois, the writer and director of the second and the third film, said that How to Train Your Dragon 2 is being intentionally designed as the second act of the trilogy: "There are certain characters and situations that come into play in the second film that will become much more crucial to the story by the third."[20] DeBlois said in an interview that the third part will be released in 2016.[21]

The release date was delayed several times. In September 2012, 20th Century Fox and DreamWorks Animation announced the release date for June 18, 2016,[22] which was later changed to June 17, 2016.[23][24] In September 2014, the film's release date was moved to June 9, 2017.[25] 2018, taking over the release date of Warner Animation Group's The Lego Movie 2: The Second Part.[26] On December 5, 2016, the release date was pushed back again to March 1, 2019.[27] This will also be the first DreamWorks Animation film to be distributed by Universal Pictures, after NBCUniversal's acquisition of the company in 2016,[28] and following DreamWorks' departure from 20th Century Fox after 2017's Captain Underpants: The First Epic Movie.

The film was produced by Bonnie Arnold, and exec-produced by Dean DeBlois and Chris Sanders.[22] Jay Baruchel, Gerard Butler, Cate Blanchett, Craig Ferguson, America Ferrera, Jonah Hill, Christopher Mintz-Plasse, Kit Harington and Kristen Wiig reprised their roles from previous films.[22] F. Murray Abraham joined the cast as the film's main villain, Grimmel.[29]

Set one year after the events of the second film, Hiccup becomes the new chieftain of Berk for dragons and Vikings. His late father tells him to seek out the safe haven of Dragons, the "Hidden World". Upon discovering a female Fury dragon, Toothless makes a new bond with her. The Night Fury killer, Grimmel the Grisly, sets out to find and kill Toothless, prompting Hiccup to make a choice between keeping the dragons or letting them go.

On October 12, 2010, it was announced that Cartoon Network had acquired worldwide broadcast rights to a weekly animated series based on the movie, which was scheduled to begin sometime in 2012.[30] In January 2011, producer Tim Johnson confirmed that work had begun on the series and that, unlike the TV series spin-offs of the films Madagascar, Kung Fu Panda and Monsters vs. Aliens, How To Train Your Dragon's series is much darker and deeper, like the movie. The show is the first DreamWorks Animation series that airs on Cartoon Network instead of Nickelodeon, unlike previous series such as The Penguins of Madagascar, Kung Fu Panda: Legends of Awesomeness and Monsters vs. Aliens.[31]

Although it was announced that the series would be called Dragons: The Series,[32] TV promos shown in June 2012 revealed a new title – Dragons: Riders of Berk.[33] The series began airing in the third quarter of 2012.[32] John Sanford, the director of seven episodes in the first season, confirmed that there would also be a second season.[34] Jay Baruchel, who voiced Hiccup, also stars in the series, as well as America Ferrera (Astrid), Christopher Mintz-Plasse (Fishlegs), and T. J. Miller (Tuffnut).[32] The second season is accompanied with the new subtitle, Defenders of Berk, replacing the previous Riders of Berk subtitle.[1] The show then moved to Netflix and was subtitled Race to the Edge. It consists, in total, of 8 seasons.
