When he was only seven years old, Mason Thames dreamed of one day portraying his hero Hiccup, from the animated series How to Train Your Dragon (HTTYD). Now at the age of 17, his dream has come true, with Thames starring as Hiccup in the new, top-grossing live-action film of the same name, and quickly becoming one of Hollywood's most sought-after young actors. 'I never thought that I'd be given the chance to step into his shoes and maybe affect kids the way Hiccup affected me,' said Thames in an interview this month with The Hollywood Reporter.

Is ‘For All Mankind' returning for season 5? Everything we know so far
By Aman Shukla Published on June 19, 2025, 19:00 IST Last updated June 19, 2025, 11:51 IST For All Mankind , the critically acclaimed Apple TV+ sci-fi drama, has captivated audiences with its alternate history of the space race, where the Soviet Union landed on the Moon first, sparking a never-ending competition in space exploration. With Season 4 concluding in January 2024, fans are eagerly awaiting updates on Season 5. Is For All Mankind Season 5 happening? Here's everything we know so far. For All Mankind Season 5: Confirmed and In Production Yes, For All Mankind Season 5 is officially happening! Apple TV+ announced the renewal in April 2024, alongside a new spinoff series titled Star City , which will focus on the Soviet space program from behind the Iron Curtain. Filming for Season 5 began in July 2024, with reports indicating that production wrapped by mid-December 2024. Release Date Speculation: When Will Season 5 Premiere? While Apple TV+ has not announced an official release date for For All Mankind Season 5, we can estimate based on the show's production history. Historically, the series has followed a 15–18-month gap between seasons. Given that filming for Season 5 began in July 2024 and reportedly wrapped by late 2024, a late 2025 release—potentially November or December—is likely. However, some sources speculate a mid-2025 release (July or August) if post-production is expedited. A May 2025 premiere seems optimistic but less probable due to the show's heavy reliance on CGI and post-production work. On the other hand, a recent Apple TV+ sizzle reel omitted For All Mankind Season 5, leading some to speculate a potential delay to 2026.
