The 2025 reimagining of How to Train Your Dragon is soaring to Peacock this weekend, flying DreamWorks Animation’s very first live action movie straight from its recent theatrical run to small screens nationwide.
Based on the beloved, family-friendly animated classic of the same name from 2010, How to Train Your Dragon (or HTTYD for short) unites Hiccup — the movie’s adorable underdog human hero — with his not-so-scary fire-breathing dragon pal, Toothless. First-timers and fans of the original film flocked to theaters to catch the remake’s summertime release back in June, as the joint production from DreamWorks and Universal Pictures hoarded more than $635 million at the global box office.

Staying true to the fantastical spirit of its animated predecessor, the new movie was written and directed by Dean DeBlois (who also co-wrote and co-directed the original 2010 film). The story unfolds on the fictional Isle of Berk, where Hiccup resolves to break an age-old cycle of warfare between dragons and their human antagonists. Forging an unlikely bond with Toothless the dragon, Hiccup and Astrid banish an ancient evil that threatens the entire isle — all while proving that it’s possible to overcome every obstacle through friendship and bravery.
