<em>How to Train Your Dragon</em>‘s streaming release date has been revealed. The 2025 movie is a live-action remake of the 2010 animated hit of the same name, which kicked off a trilogy loosely based on the Cressida Cowell children’s book series of the same name. All four films were directed by Dean DeBlois (who co-directed the first with Chris Sanders).
2025’s How to Train Your Dragon stars Mason Thames as Hiccup Horrendous Haddock III, a young Viking whose training to become a dragon-slayer becomes complicated when he befriends an injured dragon who he names Toothless. The movie also stars Nico Parker, Nick Frost, Julian Dennison, Peter Serafinowicz, and Gerard Butler (reprising his original voice role as Hiccup’s father Stoick).
Peacock has now announced that How to Train Your Dragon will debut on streaming on October 10. The three animated movies in the original trilogy will precede it to the platform, arriving on Peacock on October 1. Peacock has also announced a collection of special features that will accompany the live-action movie’s release.

What This Means For How to Train Your Dragon
This streaming release comes as something of a victory lap for the live-action remake. This is because, by the end of its theatrical run, the movie had grossed a whopping $632.3 million against its reported $150 million budget. This total made it the highest-grossing of all four How to Train Your Dragon movies (beating the second installment’s $614.6 million haul).
Additionally, it is the fifth highest-grossing movie of 2025 to date. That theatrical take already more than justified the fact that the upcoming How to Train Your Dragon 2, a live-action remake of the original movie’s animated sequel, has already been greenlit.
However, if the 2025 remake thrives on streaming too, which it very well could if its long theatrical window has allowed enough anticipation to build up as viewers wait for its streaming premiere, this could truly cement the movie as the beginning of a robust live-action branch of the franchise.
Our Take On The How to Train Your Dragon Streaming Release Date
It remains to be seen if How to Train Your Dragon becomes a streaming success. While it was a theatrical hit and could easily become an at-home hit, it faces major theatrical competition on the weekend it premieres. October 10 is also the release date of Disney’s Tron: Ares, which could steal away a good portion of HTTYD‘s key demographics.
However, even if <em>How to Train Your Dragon </em>doesn’t thrive on streaming in its first weekend, it has the rest of October to recover. The next family blockbuster that has a strong shot at competing with it is Wicked: For Good, which doesn’t debut until November 21.
