It adds: “As they travel to a hidden world thought to only exist in myth, both dragon and rider will fight together to the very end to protect everything they love.”

Dean Dubois, the writer and director of the trilogy, told The Hollywood Reporter: “There are certain characters and situations that come into play in the second film that will become much more crucial to the story by the third.

"Other threads from the first will begin to pay themselves off in the second. It's my way of guaranteeing that it is not another adventure that we throw the same five or six characters into, that it feels like part of a larger story.”

How To Train Your Dragon: The Hidden World will be released in UK cinemas on February 1.
