Get ready to meet the new sensation taking Hollywood by storm! Mason Thames is the talk of the town, and his box office success is nothing short of remarkable.
In 2025, this young actor dominated the big screen, leaving audiences captivated and critics impressed. With three blockbuster hits under his belt, Mason has achieved a feat that even the legendary Jim Carrey couldn't match. But here's where it gets interesting...
Mason's journey began with a terrifying role in the horror film The Black Phone, where he played Finney Blake, a teen facing the ultimate nightmare. Little did he know, this role would be his stepping stone to stardom. Fast forward to 2025, and Mason's star power shone brighter than ever. His first release, How to Train Your Dragon (HTTYD), became a global phenomenon, grossing an impressive $636 million. But that's not all; he followed it up with Black Phone 2, which continued the chilling tale, and then switched gears with the romantic Regretting You, both of which topped the box office charts.
In HTTYD, Mason embodied Hiccup Horrendous Haddock III, a lovable Viking who forms an unlikely bond with a dragon. This role required him to bring to life a character from the beloved DreamWorks animation, adding a unique challenge to his performance. He then seamlessly transitioned back to the horror genre, reprising his role as Finney in Black Phone 2, where his character faced an even more terrifying fate. And if that wasn't enough, Mason showcased his versatility with the heartwarming Regretting You, a romance adapted from Colleen Hoover's novel. Here, he played the charming Miller Adams, a character that resonated deeply with audiences.
But how did Mason navigate such diverse roles? He shared an intriguing insight, revealing how his characters influenced each other. "There's a funny thing about that... With Hiccup, I changed his voice and mannerisms, but when I jumped into Black Phone, Scott (the director) would remind me to slow down and get back into Finney's mindset. It was a fun challenge!"
And this is the part most people miss: Mason's success isn't just about his talent; it's about his ability to connect with audiences on a deeper level. His co-star, Mckenna Grace, who also happens to be his real-life girlfriend, gushed about their on-screen chemistry, saying, "He's one of my favorite people, and working with him has been an incredible experience."
So, what's next for Mason Thames? With his box office reign showing no signs of slowing down, we can't wait to see what this talented actor takes on next. Will he continue to break records? Only time will tell. But one thing's for sure: Mason has proven that he's here to stay, and we're excited to see what new characters he brings to life.
