DreamWorks Dragons: The Nine Realms is an American computer animated television series in the How to Train Your Dragon franchise produced by the DreamWorks Animation under DreamWorks Animation Television for Peacock and Hulu. The series premiered on both Peacock and Hulu on December 23, 2021; the sixth season was released on June 15, 2023.

Premise

The series is set in the modern world, 1,300 years after the events of How to Train Your Dragon: The Hidden World (2019). It follows a group of misfit kids, brought by their parents to a huge fissure caused by a comet, who uncover the truth about dragons and where they've been hiding.[1]

Characters and cast

Main

  • Jeremy Shada as Tom Kullersen, an adventurous and kindhearted fourteen-year-old who is the leader of the Dragon Riders. In season 5, he is revealed to be the descendant of Hiccup Horrendous Haddock III. His dragon is a Night Light (a hybrid of Night Fury and Light Fury) named Thunder who is also the descendant of Hiccup's Night Fury: Toothless and his mate: the Light Fury.
  • Ashley Liao as Jun Wong, Tom’s childhood friend who has an interest in myths and fantasy stories. Her dragon is a two-headed Mist Twister named Wu & Wei.
  • Marcus Scribner as D'Angelo Baker, the team's veterinarian. His dragon is a crystal-horned Gembreaker named Plowhorn.
  • Aimee Garcia as Alex Gonzalez, the team's tech expert, who never goes anywhere without her tablet. Her dragon is a cloaking Featherhide named Feathers.
  • Vincent Tong as Eugene Wong, Jun's cocky older brother. He discovers the dragons in season 3 and is reluctantly accepted into the club. His dragon is a six-legged Deadly Spinner named Webmaster.
