By How to Train Your Dragon Live-Action Teaser Revealed: Fans Say, ‘Toothless Looks Perfect!’
Fans of How to Train Your Dragon are finally getting a live-action adaptation of the beloved animated classic. The creators recently unveiled a teaser, showcasing a near-perfect blend of stunning visuals and nostalgia.
The teaser suggests that the live-action film will closely follow the storyline of the original animation, offering more realistic visuals to captivate mature audiences in theatres.
Following its release, netizens have been buzzing with excitement, praising how the live-action adaptation reimagines the animated film. Many fans have shared scene-by-scene comparison videos, applauding the attention to detail in bringing the story to life.
One viewer commented, “There’s no denying it—Toothless and the dragons look fantastic with this CGI.” Another shared their excitement, saying, “I can’t wait to see the scene where they become friends in live-action!” However, some fans expressed mixed feelings, with one remarking, “The dragon’s realism is incredible, but I miss his puppy dog eyes from the original.” Another said, “This looks so good. I thought they might mess it up like Sonic, but they nailed it.”
Despite the overwhelming positivity regarding the animation style, some criticisms have emerged about the necessity of a live-action remake. One skeptic questioned, “Why even make a live-action version?” Another wrote, “What’s the point? The original movie is only 15 years old, and its CGI was flawless. The technology doesn’t feel ready for this yet.” A third noted, “Why remake it? Are kids only watching live-action content now?”
Directed by Dean DeBlois, the live-action adaptation of How to Train Your Dragon is set to release in IMAX on June 13, 2025.
