New Trailer, Hiccup and Astrid, and an Interview!

A New Race to the Edge Trailer

DreamWorks has released the first trailer for the fourth season of Race to the Edge — check it out above! Along with the trailer comes a new season synopsis:

Synopsis: The fate of Hiccup and the Dragon Riders is left in the hands of the mysterious Mala and the Defenders of the Wing, as they work to prove their innocence and create an unlikely alliance. With his elaborate and sinister plans beginning to take shape, Viggo will stop at nothing to get the Riders out of his way, including putting a pricey bounty on Hiccup’s head. The battle against the Dragon Hunters rages on when Season 4 of DreamWorks Dragons: Race to the Edge premieres exclusively on Netflix February 17.

"Hiccup and Astrid's relationship starts to take shape"

If you're a Hiccstrid fan, you're in luck: Season 4 will be when "Hiccup and Astrid's relationship starts to take shape." A full year (and several seasons) ago, we asked Race to the Edge executive producers Art Brown and Doug Sloan about their relationship, and they had this to say:

Art: Oh, yeah. Hiccup and Astrid are definitely moving forward. In each season, they will get a little closer and a little closer to where they are at the beginning of the second movie, which is basically a full-fledged relationship.

Doug: We will not disappoint in terms of the Astrid-Hiccup relationship. It just may take a few more seasons [from last year, after releasing the first season] to get us there. But I promise you.

Art: You will see the beginnings of it. There are elements and Easter eggs and fun stuff always between those two. Whether it's one of them being in danger and how the other one feels about that, or the kids noticing them getting a little closer. The dragons, and how they react to it.

Doug: And how the other kids react to it is great. I mean, we get to be the ones who show them finding out, let's just put it that way.
