On the heels of the success of their latest epic adventure, Hiccup and Toothless have plans to soar across the big screen once again with the announcement of the third chapter in DreamWorks Animation’s How to Train Your Dragon series shifting to a June 9, 2017 release date. From the same creative team as the first two films, writer/director Dean DeBlois and producer Bonnie Arnold, How to Train Your Dragon 3 continues the story where the sequel leaves off (sorry folks, no spoilers here). Returning cast includes Jay Baruchel as Hiccup, America Ferrera as Astrid and Cate Blanchett as Valka.
If this is true, i'm glad they pushed the release date. This will give them enough time for "perfecting" the movie and prevent animation war
And yeah, HTTYD2 now soars past 600 Million. Yay, there so much proud to be a fan

Does that automatically mean our post sequel stories with grieving Hiccup all go AU or something??
even though we all have just under 2 years until this comes out...

I think I can wait... I just hope I haven't switched fandoms completely by then... it happened in the last fandom I was in but the last fandom I was in was a show that's not making new stuff anymore...
Also on my first reply I didn't read the Year... but I think it's better for Dreamworks NOT to have HTTYD3 competing against Finding Dory and some other big movies for 2016...

What I can tell from a quick google search is that the animated films it will be competing with in 2017 are as follows: The Lego Movie 2, Despicable Me 3, Unknown Pixar movie, The Croods & Bollywood Superstar Monkey, the latter two are DreamWorks anyway. (Although DreamWorks may well bring one of those forward to compensate for HTTYD3 being pushed back) It seems like it could actually have a very good shot at animated film of the year ^.^

3 years... I suppose I can wait.
In the meantime, there'll be more episodes of the TV show and stuff to keep us on the dragon train!
I sort of doubt this will be the only fandom I get involved in during the coming years, but hopefully we'll all still be here (or come back) when 2017 rolls around.
I'll be like 16 when it comes out wow

^ Basically what I was thinking.
I'm totally fine with it being an extra year if it means they can make sure it's the best it can be. We waited 4 years for the second one, 3 years should be a doddle ^.^ Besides, there are over 100 episodes of the tv series to come in the meantime, so it's not like we've got a completely dragon-less wait ahead!

I think the extra year of development could be a very good thing for an animated movie like HTTYD 3. Given what a labor intensive process it is to create quality animation, this will hopefully give the team the breathing room they need to focus on quality rather than rushing to meet deadlines.
