How to Train Your Dragon: What to expect?
The movie narrates the journey of Hiccup Horrendous Haddock III, a young Viking who stays on the Isle of Berk, where all the Vikings hunt dragons.
Despite being considered an outcast by the others, Hiccup becomes a star after inventing a device, named the Night Fury, that helps him catch the dragon like never before. However, things do not go well with Hiccup as he comes face-to-face with a dragon named Toothless.
With time, Hiccup is able to develop a strong friendship with the dragon, and this shows how they can continue to co-exist among the humans, Variety reported.
Upon its release in theaters in June this year, How to Train Your Dragon went on to become a major box office success, minting $632.1 million worldwide. This takes the renowned franchise's total collection around the world to $2.2 billion, which includes the $1.6 billion collected by the animated trilogy, Deadline reported.
