The live-action How to Train Your Dragon flew into theaters earlier this year and proved to be a massive success for DreamWorks and Universal. Surprisingly, the live-action adaptation even out-grossed all of its animated counterparts at the box office. Months after winning over the hearts of theatergoers, How to Train Your Dragon is finally making its way to the world of streaming.

Universal announced on Wednesday that the live-action How to Train Your Dragon will make its streaming debut on Peacock, beginning October 10th. That streaming premiere is exciting on its own, but Peacock users also learned that there is an additional surprise coming just ahead of this debut.

On October 1st, just over a week before the live-action How to Train Your Dragon arrives, Peacock will add all three of the original animated films back to its lineup. The 2010 How to Train Your Dragon is coming back to Peacock’s roster, along with How to Train Your Dragon 2 and How to Train Your Dragon: The Hidden World.

Currently, the first two films in the animated trilogy are only available to stream on Hulu. The Hidden World isn’t available on any major services, and can only be accessed via on-demand. So when October arrives, the entire franchise will be available in the same place for the first time.

Will How to Train Your Dragon Get a Live-Action Sequel?

If director Dean DeBlois wants to continue remaking his animated Dragon stories into live-action movies, he has two more remakes ready and waiting. Given the box office success of the live-action version, a sequel feels inevitable, but the question now becomes whether or not this is an opportunity to explore a different story.

Regardless of what happens with a sequel, DeBlois has expressed his wish that another beloved performer from the original films reprise their role in a live-action version. At the film’s premiere, DeBlois told ComicBook that he hopes to get Cate Blanchett to return and play the role of Valka, following the path of Gerard Butler’s animated-to-live-action journey with Stoick.

“Well, I’m wishful as well. It’s still early days,” the director said. “I think she is probably waiting for a script, but I’ve been knocking on that door. I wrote the character of Valka for her, so I told her it’ll always be hers to turn down first.”

If you’re not familiar, Valka is a core character of the How to Train Your Dragon story that doesn’t appear until the second movie. Given that the character is married to Stoick, it would be a treat for fans to see Blanchett and Butler get the opportunity to bring them to life together.
