Disney hasn’t exactly been shy about remaking its beloved cartoon and animated classics as feature films lately (with mixed results), and it’s now apparently inspired another company, also known for its animated films, to do something similar.
The Hollywood Reporter reveals that Universal is working on a feature film based on Dreamworks Animations How to Train Your Dragon. This will apparently be an extremely faithful remake, as Dean DeBlois, who wrote and directed the animated trilogy, will be making his feature directorial debut with this project.
We might not even have to wait very long to see the results either, as the film is set to premiere around the original’s 15th anniversary on March 14, 2025, and the casting process is already in full swing – which begs the question:
Who would you like to see as the lead actor?
