The Pack Is Back Together! “Teen Wolf: The Movie” Is Coming to Paramount+ This Year

“Teen Wolf: The Movie” will be a continuation of the original story, which picks up as evil once again ensues in Beacon Hills. Among the terrifying chaos are the returns of familiar creatures, including banshees, kitsunes, and hellhounds, which emerge again from the dark. It’s up to Scott McCall (Tyler Posey) to pull together a team of old friends and powerful forces in order to fight back and restore peace and order in their hometown.

And although “Teen Wolf: The Movie” is a continuation of the original series, it was revealed at a San Diego Comic-Con panel in July featuring “Teen Wolf” creator Jeff Davis and original actors Posey and Tyler Hoechlin, that the timeline skips far into the future. They shared that the film is set in 2026, that Hoechlin has a son, and that Scott is now 33 years old. That last detail may come as a surprise to fans, given that the real actors behind the characters are younger in age (Posey, for example, is age 30). Regardless, Posey shared his excitement about the characters growing up in an interview with EW.

“I’m excited to see them age and get out of high school,” he said. “High school was such a character in itself on the show, so I’m excited to see how it’s going to be without that sort of character of a school involved. It will be interesting.”

The Paramount+ revival film will see most of its original cast members return, with the exception of a few major names.

Which Original “Teen Wolf” Cast Members Will Be in the Movie?

“Teen Wolf: The Movie” will include familiar faces from the original cast such as Posey and Hoechlin. Posey shared a movie teaser on Instagram last September, captioning the clip, “Sup,” and confirming his involvement in the project.

Amongst the other returning cast members are Holland Roden (Lydia Martin), Colton Haynes (Jackson Whittemore), Dylan Sprayberry (Liam Dunbar), Ian Bohen (Peter Hale), JR Bourne (Chris Argent), Cody Christian (Theo Raeken), Orny Adams (Coach Bobby), Linden Ashby (Noah Stiles), Seth Gilliam (Alan Deaton), Ryan Kelley (Deputy Jordan), Shelley Hennig (Malia Tate), and Khylin Rhambo (Mason Hewitt).

It was also revealed in July that Crystal Reed (Allison Argent) is returning. This may be a surprise to fans of the original series, given that her character died at the end of “Teen Wolf” season 3.

Notably missing on the list of returning cast members are Arden Cho (who played Kira Yukimura) and Dylan O’Brien (who portrayed fan-favourite Stiles Stilinski).

Why Isn’t Dylan O’Brien Returning for “Teen Wolf: The Movie?”

O’Brien will not be back to revive his “Teen Wolf” character, Stiles, in “Teen Wolf: The Movie.”

He explained more about the “difficult decision” to Variety in March 2022.

“It was something I was trying to make work but it all happened very fast,” O’Brien said. “Ultimately, I just decided it was left in a really good place for me and I still want to leave it there. I wish them well and I’m going to watch it the first night it comes out.”

Even though Stiles won’t be returning, it doesn’t mean you won’t see any part of O’Brien in the movie. The “Not Okay” actor shared with Entertainment Tonight that he lent his personal car to production to be featured in the film.

“My Jeep’s in it,” O’Brien shared. “I lent them my Jeep for the movie. That’s the car my character drives in the show, yeah.”

Although the exact movie premiere date hasn’t been announced, “Teen Wolf: The Movie” is slated for a fall 2022 release on Paramount+. You can start prepping by rewatching the original TV show, streaming now on Paramount+!
