ScreenFish

Directed by Dean DeBlois, HOW TO TRAIN YOUR DRAGON returns to screen with the story of Hiccup, a young viking who doesn't fit in his own village. As the son of the king (Gerard Butler), he is expected to exhibit bravery, brutality and, most importantly, kill dragons to protect his village. But Hiccup believes there's another way and, after forming an impossible friendship with a Nightfury, attempts to chart a new path for his people. In this 1on1, we speak to DeBlois about making the jump to live action and the challenges of listening to the next generation.
