He stated, "[Dragon 3 is] the culmination of Hiccup's coming of age. Both he and Toothless are now chiefs of their respective tribes, and it's a dueling story where you have both characters trying to do what's right for their kind, and an eventual outcome where Hiccup is able to stand on his own."
In addition, the villain from the second film, Drago, will also be present in the upcoming film. Deblois explained that his character will be more complex than the portrayal in the previous installment. He stated that he did not have enough time in "How to Train Your Dragon 2" to flesh out his character.
Deblois revealed, "I think he's a little stiff, he's a little cardboard as a character, he doesn't have the layers of depth that the other characters have and that's simply because he didn't have the screentime. So as I go forward I'm still working on kind of the antagonist story of the whole thing, but there are layers and textures to go to that I think will make for a much more compelling force of antagonism in this third one."
"How to Train Your Dragon 3" is expected to hit theaters on June 29, 2018.
