How To Train Your Dragon | New Trailer (4K)

Baruchel has been the biggest stalwart of the Dragons franchise, and as it stands, the 2025 movie will be the first show or movie to lack his involvement. His legacy in the animated saga is indisputable, as proven by how much his live-action replacement is allowing Baruchel's countless performances as Hiccup to influence his own portrayal of the character. Logically, it wouldn't make sense for Baruchel to reprise the role of Hiccup in live-action, as he would already have been too old to do so even in 2010. However, that doesn't mean he can't be given a cameo as a different character.

Jay Baruchel isn't a household name, but his voice part as Hiccup is his seminal role, so many fans of the Dragons franchise may not even recognize him if he does show up in the remake. While this doesn't mean he shouldn't be afforded the opportunity to make his live-action How to Train Your Dragon debut, it simply means it'll be a more subtle thank you to the actor for bringing Hiccup to live for so many years.

Thank You So Much For Watching!
