"How to Train Your Dragon 3" promises an exciting new chapter in the life of Hiccup and Toothless. While Hiccup has successfully managed to create his village into a dragon utopia and got his childhood friend Astrid to be his wife, the third movie will showcase an elusive new dragon that may become Toothless' mate.

"How to Train Your Dragon 3" Plot and Storyline

According to the logline for "How to Train Your Dragon 3," Hiccup and Toothless who are already chieftains of their respective tribes will have their mettle tested once again as a new danger threatens the existence of humans and dragons, Cartoon Brew noted. While Hiccup already has Astrid, it seems that Toothless will also be given a new mate in the form of an "elusive" dragon that is the same species as him, a Night Fury.

Night Furies are the rarest species of dragons and it was thought that Toothless was the only remaining species of his kind. However, it would seem moviegoers will see another Night Fury in "How to Train Your Dragon 3."
