Astrid in the live-action remake of "How to Train Your Dragon" (2025) is played by Nico Parker. She portrays Astrid Hofferson, who is Hiccup's love interest and a fellow dragon-fighting trainee.

In the original animated trilogy (2010–2019), the character Astrid was voiced by America Ferrera.

Nico Parker's casting as Astrid in the live-action film sparked some online debate because the character was traditionally depicted as white with blonde hair in the animated films, whereas Parker is a mixed-race actress. Parker has addressed this, emphasizing inclusivity and creative interpretation for the live-action adaptation.

The 2025 film, directed by Dean DeBlois, presents a slightly reimagined Astrid with more depth and ambition, aiming to become the chief of her tribe.
