The kite, which measured 54ft from head to toe with a wingspan of 36ft – bigger than a London double decker bus – followed the Thames from its launch point in North Greenwich, using a high speed rib boat to pull the kite through the draw bridges of Tower Bridge.
The film, released in cinemas on 11 July, is an animated action-comedy starring Jay Baruchel, Gerard Butler and Cate Blanchett.
The dragon kite stunt was planned and executed by experiential marketing agency psLIVE.
