ISLAMABAD: Nico Parker is speaking out about social media reaction to the actress’ casting as Astrid in the live-action remake of How to Train Your Dragon. In an interview with British publication The Times, Parker was asked about online trolls grousing that the actress does not have blonde hair and blue eyes, as Astrid was initially depicted in the animated films that launched with 2010’s original How to Train Your Dragon. Universal Pictures releases the remake of the DreamWorks Animation hit movie in theaters Friday. “There’s some people that really love the animated movies and really want to see an exact play-by-play of that film, and I hope that you can watch [the new version] and find something that you love about it, regardless,” Parker said.
