Mason Thames plays Hiccup in the 2025 live-action remake of "How To Train Your Dragon."
Gobber (Nick Frost) trains a new generation of dragon slayers: Astrid (Nico Parker), Ruffnut (Bronwyn James), Fishlegs (Julian Dennison) and Snotlout (Gabriel Howell) in "How to Train Your Dragon."

In less than a month, "How to Train Your Dragon" will be yours to stream.

The "stunning live-action spectacle" about a boy and his unlikely friendship with a flying beast will be available to stream exclusively on Peacock starting Friday, Oct. 10. Nominated for four Academy Awards, "How to Train Your Dragon" also proved to be a global box office hit, earning $1.6 billion in combined sales from its June 13 release date.

USA TODAY's Brian Truitt gave the film ★★★½ out of four, writing "the new 'How to Train Your Dragon' manages to be a rousing success."

Set on the isle of Berk, "where Vikings and dragons have been bitter enemies for generations," the film is based on the 2010 animated adventure of the same name.

"But that won't stop Hiccup (Mason Thames), the inventive yet overlooked son of Chief Stoick the Vast (Gerard Butler), from building an unlikely bond with the feared dragon, Toothless," a description of the film reads.

When an "ancient evil threatens their worlds," Hiccup, Toothless and "courageous companion" Astrid (Nico Parker) have no choice but to team up. It's up to them to make the realm "realize they’re stronger together, and only through friendship and bravery can they overcome the challenges of a high-flying adventure."
