The director of ‘How to Train Your Dragon’ recently spoke about the uproar over who will play Astrid in the live-action movie.
People have been buzzing about the casting choice, with some fans feeling upset because they had different ideas about who should be Astrid. The director wanted to calm everyone down by explaining why they picked this actress. He said, “We chose her because she truly captures Astrid’s spirit.” It’s interesting how people can get so passionate about characters from stories they love.
I think it’s cool when directors share their thoughts with fans.
While some folks are still unsure, others are excited to see what the new actress will bring to the role. Sometimes, change can be a good thing, even if it feels strange at first.
