While many films focus on memorable mythical beasts, dragon movies have proven that the colossal fire-breathing lizards of legend make for some of the best cinematic experiences. Giant dinosaur-like creatures with huge leathery wings and the ability to breathe fire are certainly exciting additions to any story, and it is not hard to see why dragons have been been the focus of tales for centuries — a trend that continued with the invention of cinema and birth of filmmaking. The best dragon movies showcase all the wonderful, thrilling, and terrifying ways these beasts can be used on the big screen.

Old stories would often depict dragons as a fearsome threat to the kingdom that needed to be vanquished by heroic knights. Certainly, there are still plenty of movies that play on the destructive nature of dragons. However, dragons in movies can also be depicted as misunderstood creatures and even allies to the heroes. Epic fantasy adventures like Harry Potter have dragons, as do family-friendly fun like Shrek. From fairy tales to medieval adventures to magical epics, these dragon movies use the beasts to their greatest potential.

The Top 10 Coolest Dragons In Movies & TV Shows, Ranked

Who doesn’t love a good dragon? Dragons are as timeless in world folklore as they are in pop culture. Here are the 10 coolest movie and TV dragons.

25 Damsel (2024)

Millie Bobby Brown Faces A Powerful Dragon Head-On

Close

Damsel

Director Juan Carlos Fresnadillo Release Date March 8, 2024 Cast Millie Bobby Brown , Nick Robinson , Angela Bassett , Robin Wright , Ray Winstone , Brooke Carter , Shohreh Aghdashloo

2024 saw a new film enter the canon of movies with dragons in them — Netflix’s Damsel, starring Millie Bobby Brown. The dragon in Damsel is a key part of the plot, so viewers who want plenty of screen time with a flying fire-breathing reptile won’t be disappointed. In Damsel, Millie Bobby Brown stars as Elodie, a young woman who finds herself betrothed to the prince of a neighboring kingdom. However, shortly after the wedding ceremony, she realizes she’s actually been selected to be a human sacrifice to appease a terrible dragon that was once a scourge on the land.

Damsel features some incredible scenes featuring Millie Bobby Brown encountering the dragon, and the story isn’t as simple as it first appears. Without giving away spoilers, Elodie discovers that the fearsome fantasy beast isn’t the mindless reaper of discord and destruction the royalty of the kingdom of Aurea paint it out to be. As far as modern dragon movies go, Damsel is definitely among the strongest.

24 Beowulf (2007)

A Norse Hero Takes On A Legendary Viking Beast

Close

Beowulf

Director Robert Zemeckis Release Date November 5, 2007 Cast Ray Winstone , Anthony Hopkins , John Malkovich , Robin Wright , Brendan Gleeson , Crispin Glover Runtime 115minutes

2007’s Beowulf may not be the most critically acclaimed action fantasy movie or adaptation of a historical epic, though it does still stand as one of the best dragon movies. Directed by Robert Zemeckis, who also helmed the Back to the Future trilogy and Forrest Gump, and based on a script co-written by Neil Gaiman, Beowulf is a rich reimagining of the Norse saga of the same name. Beowulf was made with 3D viewing in mind, which means it was dismissed by many critics for being a gimmicky project that focused too much on CGI, but in the decades since, it still stands as having one of the most fearsome dragons seen on the big screen.

Beowulf has some incredible scenes when the fierce titular hero takes them on, so viewers who like the sound of intense action Viking vs. dragon action sequences should definitely seek it out.

Unlike Damsel and several other dragons in movies that have them, the dragons in Beowulf are a threatening presence through and through. There’s no attempts to portray the fantastical beasts in a positive or nuanced light in the 2007 movie — just like in the original Norse saga, their only purpose is to cause mayhem and fear. This means that Beowulf has some incredible scenes when the fierce titular hero takes them on, so viewers who like the sound of intense action Viking vs. dragon action sequences should definitely seek it out.

23 The Chronicles Of Narnia: The Voyage Of The Dawn Treader (2010)

A Cursed Dragon Becomes A Key Ally Of Prince Caspian

The Chronicles of Narnia: The Voyage of the Dawn Treader

Director Michael Apted Release Date December 9, 2010 Cast Ben Barnes , Georgie Henley Runtime 115minutes

The Chronicles of Narnia movies, which adapt the classic fantasy novels of C.S. Lewis, have all manner of fantastical beasts and creatures in them. It’s no surprise then that dragons would emerge in the story sooner or later, and it’s in the third story, The Voyage of the Dawn Treader, that one of Narnia’s dragons finally appears. The 2010 movie adaptation also includes said dragon, and in a similar vein to the dragon in Damsel, it’s a beast that seems threatening at first but is soon revealed to be a more nuanced presence.

The dragon in The Chronicles of Narnia: The Voyage of the Dawn Treader is introduced when it attacks the titular ship on its voyage to rescue the seven missing lords of Narnia. However, it’s revealed that the dragon is none other than the cousin of the Pevensie children, Eustace Scrubb. Eustace’s greed gets the better of him when he finds some treasure, which leads him to be cursed and turned into a dragon. Played by Will Poulter, Eustace makes for an interesting character when both in human and dragon form, and the CGI in 2010’s The Voyage of the Dawn Treader still holds up when viewed in the 2020s.

22 Mulan (1998)

Eddie Murphy Voices One Of Disney’s Most Beloved Animated Dragons

Close

Mulan (1998)

Director Barry Cook , Tony Bancroft Release Date June 19, 1998 Cast Ming-Na Wen , Eddie Murphy , BD Wong , Miguel Ferrer , June Foray , James Hong , Pat Morita , George Takei Runtime 87 Minutes

While they are most often presented as a threat or danger in movies, animated films have a long history of featuring dragons as comic relief or otherwise friendly characters. This is especially true for Disney, who have several movies that include animated dragons who actively help various princesses or protagonists — and perhaps none are as lovable as Mushu, the dragon spirit guide who helps the titular heroine in 1998’s Mulan.

Mushu isn’t an especially powerful dragon, but he is perhaps the funniest ever seen on screen.

Mushu and Mulan have a lot in common, as both are trying to prove themselves and surpass the incredibly low expectations of their family (or, in Mushu’s case, the Ancestors at the Fa family shrine). Mushu isn’t an especially powerful dragon, but he is perhaps the funniest ever seen on screen. This is little surprise given that he’s voiced by comedy legend Eddie Murphy. The 2020 live-action remake of Mulan chose to ignore Mushu and he wasn’t included in the movie, a decision that caused no shortage of chagrin among fans of the animated original.

21 Jabberwocky (1977)

Two Monty Python Members Are Behind This Bizarre Movie About A Dragon Hunt

When it comes to classic comedy, the Monty Python movies stand out as some of the most hilarious and, most importantly, surreal ever made. While it’s not a Monty Python film, 1977’s Jabberwocky takes everything that makes the comedy troup’s projects so memorable and supplants it into a strange tale about a hapless barrel-makers apprentice who must hunt the dragon chasing his father. The similarities to Monty Python are obvious throughout, which is of no surprise given that it’s directed by Terry Gilliam and stars MIchael Palin.

The dragon in Jabberwocky is definitely one of the strangest looking in any movie, and is very much the product of low-budget 1970s special effects. This only serves to make it more endearing though, and it definitely fits the overall tone of this incredibly unique — and unashamadely silly — medieval fantasy about an unlikely hero simply trying his best.

20 Shang-Chi And The Legend Of The Ten Rings (2021)

The MCU’s Origin Story Features A Legendary And Heroic Dragon

Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings

Release Date September 3, 2021 Director Destin Cretton Cast Awkwafina , Simu Liu , Tony Leung Chiu Wai Runtime 132 minutes

Given how much the MCU has expanded over the years, perhaps it was only a matter of time before a dragon was thrown into the mix. Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings is an MCU origin story that is initially a somewhat grounded martial arts action movie, but there eventually are more fantastical elements introduced — including an epic dragon.

As part of the legend at the center of the movie, a Chinese dragon known as the Great Protector sealed an evil creature known as the Dweller-in-Darkness inside a cave.

As part of the legend at the center of the movie, a Chinese dragon known as the Great Protector sealed an evil creature known as the Dweller-in-Darkness inside a cave. When Shang-Chi’s villainous father Wenwu frees the Dweller-in-Darkness in the movie’s climax, the Great Protector returns to help Shang-Chi. The bloated CGI finale is considered the weakest aspect of the movie, but Shang-Chi is a top-tier Phase 4 film that helped introduce a fun new hero into the MCU. Three years later, fans are still waiting for news on Shang-Chi 2.

19 Raya And The Last Dragon (2021)

A Disney Adventure About A Dragon Who Is Humanity’s Last Hope

Close

Raya and the Last Dragon

Release Date March 5, 2021 Director Carlos López Estrada , Don Hall Cast Awkwafina , Kelly Marie Tran , Thalia Tran , Daniel Dae Kim , Alan Tudyk , Izaac Wang , Ross Butler , Patti Harrison , Gemma Chan , Sandra Oh , Benedict Wong , Lucille Soong Runtime 112 minutes

Disney jumped into the dragon storytelling genre with Raya and the Last Dragon. This animated movie about dragons takes place in a fantasy world where humans and dragons coexisted. When a dark force threatened the land, the dragons sacrificed themselves to save humanity. When the darkness returns, a young human warrior sets out to find the last dragon who can save them. Raya and the Last Dragon features some of the most interesting character designs of any dragons in dragon movies, with aesthetic influences from many Asian cultures.

Raya and the Last Dragon is an exciting and breathtaking adventure, featuring some incredible animated action sequences. It is also a rare story in which dragons are seen as protectors and allies to humans from the beginning. This sets up the wonderful friendship that is at the heart of the movie between Raya and the dragon Sisu. Though not a huge Disney hit, critics were much kinder to this dragon film than many others in the niche fantasy subgenre.

18 Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves (2023)

The Adaptation Of The Popular Game Features Memorable Dragons

Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves

Release Date March 31, 2023 Director Jonathan Goldstein , John Francis Daley Cast Hugh Grant , Rege-Jean Page , Chris Pine , Justice Smith , Chloe Coleman , Michelle Rodriguez , Sophia Lillis Runtime 134 Minutes

While the first attempt to bring the popular game Dungeons & Dragons to the big screen ended in disaster, this new take on the material made for a wildly fun adventure fantasy. Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves cast of characters make up a ragtag group of heroes who unwittingly unleash a powerful evil and must find a way to save the world.

As Honor Among Thieves is a Dungeons and Dragons movie, there are dragons and other wonderful fantasy creatures thrown into the story, many of which fans of the game will recognize. This includes a memorable sequence with the heroes fleeing from a hilariously overweight dragon. It all adds to the wonderful sense of humor and clever action set pieces that make this a winning movie. Though it wasn’t the box office smash that some were hoping for, there is still hope for Dungeons & Dragons 2.

17 Merlin (1998)

The Television Miniseries Brought Fantasy Storytelling To The Small Screen

Merlin (1998)

Cast Sam Neill , Helena Bonham Carter , John Gielgud , Rutger Hauer , Miranda Richardson , Isabella Rossellini , Martin Short Release Date April 26, 1998 Seasons 1 Creator(s) Steve Barron

Technically, Merlin is not a movie; it was a made-for-TV miniseries featured on NBC in 1998. However, given its quality and following, it deserves some recognition. Some viewers argue that the scene in the film where Merlin’s love Nimue is sacrificed to a dragon is the best scene in the miniseries. Whether or not that is true, it brought dragons to primetime television decades before Game of Thrones and House of the Dragon.

Merlin served as a stepping stone toward the influx of fantasy productions in mainstream media, paving the way for television shows like Grimm, Once Upon a Time, and Supernatural.

Merlin was nominated for six Emmy Awards and four Golden Globes. Its biggest accomplishment, however, was luring so many new fans to the fantasy genre. Filled with drama and magic and loosely based on real-world historical events, Merlin served as a stepping stone toward the influx of fantasy productions in mainstream media, paving the way for television shows like Grimm, Once Upon a Time, and Supernatural. Fantasy fans may also be familiar with the show’s sequel, Merlin’s Apprentice.

16 Flight Of The Dragons (1982)

The Animated Dragon Movie That Does A Lot With A Little

Some of the best dragon movies are animated, which makes perfect sense. It hasn’t always been possible to capture the majesty, magic, and even brutality of dragons on the big screen, especially prior to the dawn of CGI. Take The Flight of the Dragons, for example. Released in 1982, it combines star voice-acting talents like John Ritter and James Earl Jones and unique takes on many traditional fantasy elements to create an animated treat for all ages.

Newcomers to the film should not let its underwhelming cover art deter them from seeing it. It features the same dramatic and gorgeous, yet somehow gritty fantasy style used in movies like The Last Unicorn. It is a rare type of film that simply isn’t made anymore. Plus, it features some truly memorable dragons, and since they’re central to the story the fantastical fantasy beasts get plenty of screen-time too.

15 Eragon (2006)

An Adaptation Of The Beloved Young Adult Fantasy

Eragon

Release Date December 15, 2006 Director Stefen Fangmeier Cast Jeremy Irons , Rachel Weisz , Ed Speleers , Djimon Hounsou , Robert Carlyle , Sienna Guillory , John Malkovich , Garrett Hedlund , Joss Stone Runtime 103 minutes

A solid mid-2000s dragon movie that viewers of all ages can enjoy, Eragon is an adaptation of the young adult novel of the same name by Chrisopher Paolini. Eragon is the classic tale of a young boy fighting to defend his people and home against invaders with a high-fantasy twist. Indelibly bonded to a dragon known as Saphira, the two develop a kinship as they quest to thwart impending evils.

It’s enjoyable enough for younger audiences, and it may have fared a bit better had it not come on the heels of the titanic Lord of the Rings trilogy.

Eragon was a celebrated children’s novel, but it didn’t translate all that well to film, with poor critical and commercial reception tanking the Eragon franchise before it got going. Still, it’s enjoyable enough for younger audiences, and it may have fared a bit better had it not come on the heels of the titanic Lord of the Rings trilogy. Luckily, a Disney+ adaptation of the Eragon books will hopefully do it more justice.

14 Dragonslayer (1981)

A Gory And Horrific Fantasy Adventure

Dragonslayer

Release Date June 26, 1981 Director Matthew Robbins Cast Peter MacNicol , Caitlin Clarke , Ralph Richardson , John Hallam , Peter Eyre , Sydney Bromley Runtime 109 Minutes

While actor Peter MacNicol may distance himself from his 1981 dragon movie, Dragonslayer still maintains a cult following. Between its general weirdness, darkness, and “saving the damsel in distress” theme, Dragonslayer recalls the archetypal Arthurian tale, as well as the story of David’s triumph over Goliath, in more ways than one.

The 1981 dragon movie featured a surprising amount of gore for its subject, incorporating some borderline horror elements into its backbone. Today’s fans of films with dragons in them might see it and consider its special effects both too outdated and too dark, but Dragonslayer was a huge achievement in cinematography and special effects at the time, managing to portray a dragon on the big screen in a way no other film had quite accomplished.

13 Lord Of The Rings: The Two Towers (2002)

The Second Movie In Peter Jackson’s Trilogy Introduced Terrifying Flying Beasts

The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers

Release Date January 15, 2002 Director Peter Jackson Cast Peter Jackson , Elijah Wood , Andy Serkis , Viggo Mortensen Runtime 179minutes

Peter Jackson’s adaptation of J.R.R. Tolkien’s fantasy series made for one of the most popular and acclaimed movie trilogies of all time. What was so successful about them was how they were able to blend such fantastical creatures and beings with well-rounded and interesting characters. Yet as compelling as Frodo and Sam were, the introduction of the unsettling flying beasts ridden by the Nazgul, in The Two Towers certainly stood out.

Amid the creatures’ deafening wing-swishing and ear-splitting cries, audiences could almost smell their stench and feel their rancid breath.

The Nazgul scenes from Return of the King are even more mesmerizing, especially with the additional scenes from the Lord of the Rings extended editions. While the iconic moment between the Witch King and Eowyn definitely deserves mentioning, it was in Osgiliath where viewers first glimpse the fell beasts that the Nazgul rode while hunting the One Ring. Amid the creatures’ deafening wing-swishing and ear-splitting cries, audiences could almost smell their stench and feel their rancid breath.

12 Pete’s Dragon (1977)

A Modern-Day Friendship Between A Boy And A Dragon

Though it is one of the more lighthearted dragon movies, Pete’s Dragon is not without its darkness. Between the abuse of a backwoods adopted family and the threat of having his dragon murdered, mutilated, and eaten as magical medicine, some moments might disturb younger viewers. However, the main message of the film is uplifting and there are memorable musical numbers that feature performances by Helen Reddy, Mickey Rooney, and Charlie Callas, who voiced the goofy animated dragon, Elliott.

Pete’s Dragon may not be the most beloved or widely-known classic Disney movie, but it definitely stands out as one of the most ambitious from the House of Mouse during the 1970s, with the blend between live-action and animation being an arduous undertaking that still looks impressive today. The lovable nature of Elliott, combined with his round, hand-drawn features and support of Pete, made him a favorite among children and adults alike. While the 2016 Pete’s Dragon remake took a few liberties, it was ultimately received as a superior modernization of the original.

11 Shrek (2001)

The DreamWorks Animated Comedy Subverts Dragons And Other Fairy Tale Tropes

Shrek

Release Date May 18, 2001 Director Vicky Jenson , Andrew Adamson Cast Cameron Diaz , Mike Myers , Eddie Murphy , John Lithgow Runtime 90 minutes

The Shrek movies have always had a fun quality of playing around with the tropes of fairy tales and nursery rhymes. This includes its titular character, a grumpy ogre who ends up being the hero of the story and the one who the princess falls in love with in the end. The movie also has a twist on the classic trope of the princess stuck in a tower guarded by a dragon, with a rare female dragon being part of the fun.

Not only did Shrek feature a pink, eye-lashed dragon that wore lipstick, but the movie also saw her fall in love with a talking donkey.

Not only did Shrek feature a pink, eye-lashed dragon that wore lipstick, but the movie also saw her fall in love with a talking donkey. Dragon in Shrek begins as a menace and then evolves into a love-struck punchline. In later films in the Shrek series, Dragon becomes a serious love interest and even ends up making donkey-dragon hybrids with Shrek’s sidekick.

10 Godzilla: King Of The Monsters (2019)

Godzilla Meets His Match With This Three-Headed Dragon

Close

Godzilla: King of the Monsters

Release Date May 29, 2019 Director Michael Dougherty Cast Millie Bobby Brown , Vera Farmiga , Kyle Chandler , O’Shea Jackson Jr. , Bradley Whitford , Randy Havens , Charles Dance , Aisha Hinds , Sally Hawkins , Ken Watanabe , Thomas MIddleditch Runtime 132 Minutes

Godzilla’s status as a kind of dragon is up for debate, but King Ghidorah, the central antagonist of 2019’s Godzilla: King of the Monsters, definitely qualifies. A massive, hydra-like creature capable of breathing lightning, Ghidorah is every bit as threatening as the titular monster. The movie itself was a big step forward in establishing the MonsterVerse with more details on Monarch and its mysterious past.

However, those who are not into the lore of the franchise could simply enjoy the big monster action of the sequel. While he may not be a particularly deep or complex villain, King Ghidorah is a perfect fit for the film, and he’s an utter terror on-screen. Plus, thanks to his character design, his presence solidifies Godzilla: King of the Monsters as a top-tier dragon movie — a crown that it also earned thanks to the incredibly impressive CGI.

9 Maleficent (2014)

The Sleeping Beauty Live-Action Movie Recreates The Dragon Sequence

Maleficent

Release Date May 30, 2014 Director Robert Stromberg Cast Sam Riley , Sharlto Copley , Elle Fanning , Juno Temple , Angelina Jolie , Imelda Staunton Runtime 1h 37m

Disney’s original Sleeping Beauty may have terrified younger viewers with its animated dragon in the 1959 original, but the scene was done far better in the live-action remake over five decades later. In 2014, Angelina Jolie portrayed one of the most famous Disney movie villains in a new light in Walt Disney Pictures’ Maleficent, and she was accompanied by one of the most striking dragons ever added to a film. It features a fantastic battle scene with a dragon, as well as magic at every turn.

Seeing the dragon from Sleeping Beauty recreated with some fun new twists as a big-budget action sequence in Maleficent is unforgettable for Disney fans.

In addition to giving a villain her humanity and a plausible backstory, it also featured a heroine at the helm in a clever retelling of the Sleeping Beauty story. Sleeping Beauty itself also features a moment in its climax in which Maleficent turns into a threatening dragon, making for an exciting early Disney action sequence. However, seeing the dragon from Sleeping Beauty recreated with some fun new twists as a big-budget action sequence in Maleficent is unforgettable for Disney fans.

8 Harry Potter And The Goblet of Fire (2005)

The Fourth Harry Potter Movie Features A Memorable Dragon Despite Significant Changes From The Book

Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire

Release Date November 16, 2005 Director Mike Newell Cast Daniel Radcliffe , Emma Watson , Rupert Grint , Tom Felton , Robbie Coltrane , Ralph Fiennes , Michael Gambon , Brendan Gleeson , Gary Oldman , Timothy Spall , Alan Rickman , Maggie Smith Runtime 157 Minutes

There are countless memes for Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire that highlight all the big details from the books left out of the movies. A key component of the Triwizard Tournament is the dragon battle. While the movie version glossed over the deeper lore, in the book readers encounter several varieties of dragons. Creatures make up the most amazing moments of Goblet of Fire, but the dragon scenes were such huge fan favorites that there is even a dragon ride in the Wizarding World of Harry Potter.

The Harry Potter universe is not limited to one book or film when it comes to dragons, either. Gamekeeper Rubeus Hagrid adopted and hatched a dragon, Norbert, from an egg in Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone, and Harry, Ron, and Hermione ride a Ukrainian Ironbelly during one of the best dragon scenes in the franchise. However, when it comes to the movies, Goblet of Fire does feature a memorable sequence that serves as a reminder of the dangerous beasts in this world.

7 Willow (1988)

The Fantasy Cult-Favorite Includes A Memorable Two-Headed Dragon

Willow

Release Date May 20, 1988 Director Ron Howard Cast Jean Marsh , Val Kilmer , Joanne Whalley , Patricia Hayes , Warwick Davis Runtime 126 minutes

1988’s Willow is a beloved fantasy movie that features some charming practical monster effects. While these moments were more convincing in the late 1980s than they are today, they still hold an endearing quality. The scene where Willow kicks a hatching two-headed dragon into a moat only to witness it grow and devour humans is a particularly memorable scene and perhaps more effective than some modern CGI creations.

Of all the scenes in the original Willow that continue to stick with viewers decades later, it’s the emergence of the fearsome dragon that’s still widely discussed as an example of what made the children’s movie satisfyingly dark.

Although Willow can only be called a modest box office success, like many fantasy films, it still has a large and loyal following. Between its weird creatures and Warwick Davis’s reluctant yet steadfast heroics, Willow still appeals to audiences today. It was nominated for two Academy Awards and spawned the short-lived Disney+ sequel series. And, of all the scenes in the original Willow that continue to stick with viewers decades later, it’s the emergence of the fearsome dragon that’s still widely discussed as an example of what made the children’s movie satisfyingly dark.

6 Reign Of Fire (2002)

A Futuristic World Where Dragons Take Over

Reign of Fire

Director Rob Bowman Release Date July 12, 2002 Cast Christian Bale , Matthew McConaughey , Izabella Scorupco , Gerard Butler , Scott Moutter , David Kennedy Runtime 102 Minutes

Dragon movies are typically set in ancient history or a sword-and-sorcery medieval-inspired setting, making the 2002 futuristic film Reign of Fire a particularly exciting take on fantasy. Not only was the early 2000s dragon movie an entertaining post-apocalyptic film that predated the current demand for dystopian media, but it also endangered the entire human race in a unique way.

Even though the premise is a bit laughable, the movie used it to create and unique and exciting dystopian action movie. The visuals of a war against dragons in a live-action movie were impressive and thrilling, especially in a sequence where the heroes HALO jump to attack the beasts. The dragon movie Reign of Fire won a Festival de Cine de Sitges Award and was nominated for a Saturn Award. It was also developed into a video game.
