How to Train Your Dragon has arrived in the global theatres, and to be honest, it turned out to be a gorgeous live-action adaptation of the acclaimed animated franchise. Based on Cressida Cowell’s best-selling novel series, it revolves around Hiccup, a young Viking who is often seen as a nuisance by his tribe, as well as his father, who is the chief of the tribe. Later, he befriends a Night Fury, whom he names Toothless, and makes everyone in his tribe believe that dragons are not as bad as they believe them to be.
The HTTY live-action is an exact copy of the animated series. While fans already knew that none of the original film or television shows ever featured an end-credit scene, in the theater, the audience did not get up from their seats even when the credits started rolling. That’s because nowadays, most movies have post-credit scenes, and people have become accustomed to them. So, if you are curious to know if How to Train Your Dragon live-action features an after-credits scene, here’s the answer you are looking for.
Does How to Train Your Dragon Have an After-Credits Scene?

Yes, ‘How to Train Your Dragon’ indeed has an after-credits scene . After the credits rolled up, a brief scene showcases Hiccup sitting with the Book of Dragons that he was seen reading in the film. However, at that time, he didn’t know anything about the Night Fury, so he could just see a blank page on which Night Fury’s name was written.
Things have changed now, and we see him keeping his personal notebook containing the drawing of Toothless on the page with Night Fury’s name. Following the scene, the screen turns black.
While most movies either tease an intriguing aftermath scene or hint at an upcoming event, How to Train Your Dragon revealed nothing major. Well, that seems disappointing, but as the first live-action was a shot-to-shot adaptation of the first animated film, it seems the sequel will be a copy-and-paste of the second film. So, those who have watched every How to Train Your Dragon film and television show are already acquainted with the future events.
How to Train Your Dragon 1 has laid the foundation, and now the second film, which will be released in 2027, will introduce us to new faces, including good guys and bad ones, of course. Additionally, there are no limitations in the world-building elements of the franchise, so let’s not be too curious, as the sequel is not arriving anytime soon.
