A Reimagined Tale of Friendship and Courage
Set on the rugged Viking island of Berk, the story follows Hiccup Horrendous Haddock III, played by Mason Thames, an inventive yet underestimated young Viking. His father, Stoick the Vast (Gerard Butler), is the powerful chief determined to protect their village from the constant threat of dragons. However, when Hiccup shoots down the mysterious Night Fury, everything changes.
Instead of slaying the dragon as expected, Hiccup discovers a wounded creature in need of help. Naming it Toothless, he forms a deep, unlikely bond with the dragon. Through this friendship, Hiccup learns that dragons are not the mindless beasts his people believe them to be. Meanwhile, his courage and compassion begin to challenge centuries of Viking traditions and fear.
