AMERICAN DRAGON: JAKE LONG (2026)
Disney’s iconic hero returns in a live-action fantasy reboot
One of Disney’s most beloved animated series is officially reborn in a bold new cinematic adventure with American Dragon: Jake Long (2026) — a live-action fantasy-action film that brings the legendary Dragon of New York back to the big screen.
Set in modern-day Manhattan, the story follows Jake Long, a confident, funny, and street-smart teenager who seems like a normal kid on the surface — until the truth is revealed: Jake is the last in a powerful bloodline of American Dragons, sworn to protect magical creatures living secretly among humans.
As strange supernatural events begin shaking the city, Jake discovers that a dangerous force is rising from the shadows — an ancient enemy that wants to wipe out all magical beings and claim dragon power for itself. With New York turning into a battleground between the human world and the hidden realm of magic, Jake must learn what it truly means to be a guardian… and a hero.
Balancing school life, friendships, and secret battles, Jake struggles with responsibility and identity, especially when the line between protecting people and protecting monsters becomes blurred. Alongside his loyal friends and his hilarious but wise grandfather, Jake enters a new era of dragon warfare — featuring explosive transformations, mystical martial arts, and high-stakes rooftop battles across the city skyline.
With a fresh tone that blends action, comedy, and emotional coming-of-age drama, American Dragon: Jake Long (2026) is shaping up to be a nostalgic return for longtime fans — while also introducing a new generation to the Dragon of NYC.
