There has been the news that we are getting a How To Train Your Dragon live action movie in June of 2025, and you can even search around to find the castings, which we think are darn near perfect, but the question looms as to what this means for Epic Universe. With the five different lands of Celestial Park, The Wizarding World of Harry Potter – Ministry of Magic, Super Nintendo World, How To Train Your Dragon – Isle of Berk; and Dark Universe we see that our movie has an anchor in this new park. When we look at these portals, Celestial Park, if it was to have a movie or show would mean something totally new, and we know with the Max Harry Potter series coming hopefully in 2026 that we are covered there, that leaves Nintendo and Dark Universe. Nintendo is always dropping games, but the classics will be in the park and will be a huge draw and while we are loving the Dark Universe idea, we just don’t think a movie or series would be the perfect tie in, nor the family tie in that Epic Universe needs. That leaves us How To Train Your Dragon – Isle of Berk and this will play out perfectly with the timing.
We tend to think that How to Train Your Dragon Live Action will be a huge hit as a family movie in the summer of 2025 and should lend itself to a tie in with Epic Universe as well as creating a huge buzz for the parks. Not only that, but character greets and interactions will be a perfect way to promote the movie. If all goes well, this may also mean more live action films to continue to generate interest. While we still do not have a definitive date for the opening of Epic Universe, we do know that it is going to be in 2025, and we have a feeling that it will be closely tied to the release of this live action How to Train Your Dragon movie. The Epic Universe team has picked some great new lands, now we wonder if there will be a new movie tie in for Dark Universe at some point and will it be a family friendly movie/series or not?
