Disney Gives You A New Fire-Breathing BFF In The Magical First Teaser For The Remake Of Pete's Dragon!

Bryce Dallas Howard can’t get away from those large reptiles!
The actress ran away from dinosaurs (wearing extremely uncomfortable high heels) in Jurassic World last year. Thankfully, she looks like she’s wearing much more sensible footwear in the first trailer for Pete’s Dragon!
Disney‘s live-action re-imagining of the 1977 animated film follows the adventure of an orphaned boy named Pete (Oakes Halbrooks) and his BFF Elliot — who is, you guessed it, an enormous fire-breathing dragon!

An old wood carver (Robert Redford) knows stories of such a legend, but writes off tales of dragons as myths — until his daughter (Dallas Howard) meets Pete, and eventually his mysterious scaly friend!
