“Ugly Betty” star America Ferrera is going to lend her voice to a new animated film from DreamWorks. How To Train Your Dragon is based on the British children’s novel of the same name. Because nothing says “easy money” like a cinematic adaptation of a quirky book for children who call cookies “biscuits:”

The film is an adaptation of Cressida Cowell’s children’s book and follows the story of the shy son of a Viking leader who is ordered to catch and train a dragon.

The film will also feature the vocal talents of Jay Baruchel, Gerard Butler, Jonah Hill and Christopher Mintz-Plasse.

America is set to play “Humungous Hotshot the Hero.” Just kidding. She’s only big by Hollywood standards. By fictional, whimsical viking standards, she’s, like, really skinny.
