A stunning live-action reimagining of the beloved animation, with plenty of frolics, flying, and fire-breathing dragons on show. A definite big screen family crowd-pleaser.
On the rugged isle of Berk, where Vikings and dragons have been bitter enemies for generations, Hiccup (Mason Thames, The Black Phone), the inventive yet overlooked son of Chief Stoick the Vast (Gerard Butler, reprising his voice role from the animated franchise), defies centuries of tradition when he befriends Toothless, a feared Night Fury dragon. As an ancient threat emerges, Hiccup’s friendship with Toothless becomes the key to forging a new future.
Cutting-edge visual effects and sterling direction from three-time Oscar nominee and Golden Globe-winner Dean DeBlois (Lilo & Stitch) bring the epic adventures of Hiccup and Toothless to life as they discover the true meaning of friendship, courage and destiny.
Announced alongside How to Train Your Dragon as part of this year's Family Program, Sydney Film Festival are also proud to present the Australian Premiere Night of the Zoopocalypse. An actioned-packed slice of spooks and laughs about a (kid-friendly) zombie animal uprising in a zoo, featuring a fabulous voice performance from David Harbour (Stranger Things).
A celebration too big for a small screen. See the bigger picture at Sydney Film Festival, June 4-15. Explore all films: sff.org.au
