From three-time Oscar® nominee and Golden Globe winner Dean DeBlois, the creative visionary behind DreamWorks Animation’s acclaimed How to Train Your Dragon trilogy, comes a stunning live-action reimagining of the film that launched the beloved franchise. In theatres June 13, 2025.
On the rugged isle of Berk, where Vikings and dragons have been bitter enemies for generations, Hiccup (Mason Thames; The Black Phone, For All Mankind) stands apart. The inventive yet overlooked son of Chief Stoick the Vast (Gerard Butler, reprising his voice role from the animated franchise), Hiccup defies centuries of tradition when he befriends Toothless, a feared Night Fury dragon. Their unlikely bond reveals the true nature of dragons, challenging the very foundations of Viking society.
With the fierce and ambitious Astrid (BAFTA nominee Nico Parker; Dumbo, The Last of Us) and the village’s quirky blacksmith Gobber (Nick Frost; Snow White and the Huntsman, Shaun of the Dead) by his side, Hiccup confronts a world torn by fear and misunderstanding.
As an ancient threat emerges, endangering both Vikings and dragons, Hiccup’s friendship with Toothless becomes the key to forging a new future. Together, they must navigate the delicate path toward peace, soaring beyond the boundaries of their worlds and redefining what it means to be a hero and a leader.
The film also stars Julian Dennison (Deadpool 2), Gabriel Howell (Bodies), Bronwyn James (Wicked), Harry Trevaldwyn (Smothered), Ruth Codd (The Midnight Club), BAFTA nominee Peter Serafinowicz (Guardians of the Galaxy) and Murray McArthur (Game of Thrones).
How to Train Your Dragon is written, produced and directed by DeBlois. It is also produced by three-time Oscar® nominee Marc Platt (Wicked, La La Land) and Emmy winner Adam Siegel (Drive, 2 Guns). How To Train Your Dragon is part of the Filmed For IMAX® Program, which offers filmmakers IMAX® technology to help them deliver the most immersive movie experience to audiences around the world.
Inspired by Cressida Cowell’s New York Times bestselling book series, DreamWorks Animation’s How to Train Your Dragon franchise has captivated global audiences, earning four Academy Award® nominations and grossing more than $1.6 billion at the global box-office. Now, through cutting-edge visual effects, DeBlois transforms his beloved animated saga into a breathtaking live-action spectacle, bringing the epic adventures of Hiccup and Toothless to life with jaw-dropping realism as they discover the true meaning of friendship, courage and destiny.

Today, 3x GRAMMY and 7x BRIT Award-winning global pop powerhouse Dua Lipa announces a special triple vinyl edition of her GRAMMY Award-winning, certified platinum sophomore album Future Nostalgia in celebration of its upcoming 5th anniversary. Pressed on one yellow splatter vinyl and two traditional black vinyl discs, the 3-LP set will include the album’s original 11 tracks, along with the deluxe Moonlight Edition, and the remix album Club Future Nostalgia. The anniversary edition is available to pre-order here and will be released globally on March 28, 2025.
With the release of Future Nostalgia in 2020, Dua Lipa cemented herself as both a critical success and top radio performer. Future Nostalgia landed on the year-end “Best Of” lists of everyone from Rolling Stone and Billboard to Pitchfork and NPR and was the longest running top 10 album by a female artist on the Billboard 200 in 2021. The album went multi-platinum in over 30 countries and spawned multiple worldwide hit singles including the No. 1 tracks “Break My Heart,” US 4x platinum lead single “Don’t Start Now,” and Billboard’s No. 1 Hot 100 Song of 2021, “Levitating,” which earned certified diamond status and is the longest charting Billboard Hot 100 hit ever among women. Future Nostalgia now has over 22 billion streams across all platforms worldwide, making it the 7th most streamed album ever globally, and was recently named one of the greatest albums of the 21st century by Rolling Stone.
This March, Dua will resume her Radical Optimism World Tour kicking off in Australia and New Zealand, before playing across Europe and the UK throughout May and June, and will make her way to North America this September. While in the UK, nearly a year after she headlined Glastonbury’s Pyramid Stage, Dua will mark another career milestone as she plays back-to-back nights at Wembley Stadium, both of which sold out immediately. Please see below for the full list of upcoming tour dates. For more information on tickets, please visit www.dualipa.com/tour.
The tour is in support of Dua’s latest album, Radical Optimism, which went No. 1 in 12 countries, including the UK where it became the biggest album debut from a UK female artist in 2024 and garnered the highest week one sales from a UK female artist since 2021. In the US, the album debuted at No. 1 on Billboard’s Top Album Sales chart and No. 2 on the Billboard 200 chart, marking Dua’s biggest sales week yet. The New York Times named it a Critic’s Pick and hailed it as “an album of nonstop ear candy,” along with Variety, who declared it “a joyous blast of pop savvy,” The New Yorker, who praised, “the instrumentation is a gleaming and impenetrable expanse, and the main attraction is Lipa,” and Vogue, who raved it is “a summary, self-assured slice of pop brilliance…[and] catchy as hell.”
With four Brit Award nominations this year, including Album of the Year, Song of the Year for “Training Season,” Artist of the Year, and Pop Act, which she won in 2024, Dua has now become the most nominated BRITS female artist in history with a career total of 23 nominations.

Today, Prime Video released a new Trailer for The Wheel of Time’s upcoming third season, which will debut globally on March 13, 2025.
Some new images from the season:
In The Wheel of Time, a humble farm boy, Rand al’Thor, learns he is The Dragon Reborn—a dangerous figure from history destined to save the world … or break it. The Wheel of Time turns, and the Last Battle approaches.
After defeating Ishamael, one of the most powerful of the Forsaken, at the end of Season Two, Rand reunites with his friends in the city of Falme and is declared the Dragon Reborn. But in Season Three, the threats against the Light are multiplying: the White Tower stands divided, the Black Ajah run free, old enemies return to the Two Rivers, and the remaining Forsaken are in hot pursuit of the Dragon… including Lanfear, whose relationship with Rand will mark a crucial choice between Light and Dark for them both. As the ties to his past begin to unravel, and his corrupted power grows stronger, Rand becomes increasingly unrecognizable to his closest allies, Moiraine and Egwene. These powerful women, who started the series as teacher and student, must now work together to prevent the Dragon from turning to the Dark…no matter the cost.

In the world of food, the Bocuse d’Or and the World Pastry Cup are the equivalent to the Oscars, bringing the best chefs and bakers from around the globe to compete in what’s described as the most demanding cooking competitions on Earth. A few weeks ago, we were thrilled to announced that our national culinary athlete, Chef Keith Pears and his commis, Joseph Mongillo, placed Canada back in the world’s culinary top 10 for the first time since 2013. The Road to Lyon 2027 starts again for those who think they have what it takes to represent our country here and abroad, keeping the momentum and continuing the climb towards the podium as well as the hearts and minds of foodies globally. The application process is now live on www.chefscanada.com/nationals!
CHEFS CANADA, the organization that manages our national culinary teams is looking for one chef to head Bocuse d’Or Canada and two bakers (one chocolate master and one sugar specialist) to take the reins of the World Pastry Cup Team Canada. Expectations are high for the next contenders: in addition to experience, creative mastery, stellar execution and unparalleled technical skills, the candidates need to be able to perform under pressure, build relationships with chefs, industry professionals, medias, brands and sponsors from coast to coast. Applicants have until 11:59 p.m. on Friday, March 10, 2025 to submit their application on the Chefs Canada website. A committee composed of some of the country’s top chefs will be selecting the top candidates who will battle it out on the Garland Stage at the RC Show this April.
Under the eye of the country’s leading industry professionals, contenders will go head-to-head in a high-energy battle for the chance to become our national culinary athletes. The event, modeled after the world-famous Bocuse d’Or and World Pastry Cup in Lyon (France), will give participants two and a half hours to fulfill the theme provided.
“We’re thrilled to once again partner with the RC Show to find Team Canada’s next stars,” says Thomas Delannoy, President of CHEFS CANADA. “We look forward to seeing top national talents come together, for a chance to represent our country and shine the spotlight on the products, ingredients and flavours that make Canada unique. “
THE BOCUSE D’OR ADVENTURE
Since the very beginning of the competition 33 years ago, Canada has always been represented by stellar chefs. This legacy started by Jamie Kennedy gives an open door to the Bocuse d’Or Canada candidate to join a star-studded line-up that includes names such as Thomas Keller and Daniel Boulud. Though Canada has not yet stepped on the podium, the organization has made great strides over the last few years, garnering the recognition and respect of the international culinary community while shining a spotlight on our country’s restaurant industry, an important step in increasing food tourism in Canada.
THE NATIONAL PASTRY TEAM
As the most prestigious stage for pastry art on the planet and the sweet counterpart of the Bocuse d’Or, the competition is a window into the latest trends and techniques, showcasing the best creative minds from around the world competing for a chance to win the title of World Pastry Champion.
