Several original cast members are returning for the Teen Wolf reunion movie, including Tyler Posey and Crystal Reed. One of MTV's fan-favorite series is making an early return only five years after its conclusion. However, instead of a seventh season, Paramount+ is producing a Teen Wolf revival movie that will pick up sometime after the series finale, with original showrunner Jeff Davis back to pen the script. Teen Wolf, based on the comedy film franchise from 1985, was reimagined as a supernatural drama in 2011 as it followed Scott McCall having his entire life changed after getting bitten by an Alpha werewolf.
Throughout Teen Wolf's entire run, the show saw Scott's evolution before becoming an alpha himself while protecting his hometown, Beacon Hills. The series became one of MTV's biggest hits, especially in the midst of social media growing to what it has become today, primarily on Twitter. Aside from its heavy exploration of supernatural creatures, Teen Wolf garnered a lot of critical acclaim for its comedic beats and big portrayal of LGBTQ+ representation. While a revival was always something that was possible, the reunion did come earlier than expected.
It has been more than half a year since the initial announcement, but new details have finally emerged for the revival film. Paramount+ revealed, via EW, over a dozen original cast members that are returning from the MTV series, including Posey and Reed. As of right now, Dylan O'Brien, Tyler Hoechlin, and Arden Cho are not attached to the project. Here's the full confirmed cast list for the Teen Wolf movie:
Tyler Posey as Scott McCall
Crystal Reed as Allison Argent
Holland Roden as Lydia Martin
Colton Haynes as Jackson Whittemore
Shelley Hennig as Malia Tate
Linden Ashby as Sheriff Noah Stilinski
Orny Adams as Coach Bobby Finstock
JR Bourne as Chris Argent
Seth Gilliam as Dr. Alan Deaton
Ryan Kelley as Deputy Jordan Parrish
Melissa Ponzio as Melissa McCall
Dylan Sprayberry as Liam Dunbar
Hoechlin's Derek Hale, who departed as a series regular after Teen Wolf season 4, being absent from the cast list is likely due to his busy schedule headlining Superman & Lois on The CW. However, Deadline reports that his status is "in flux," as plans could potentially change down the line. O'Brien not returning as Stiles Stilinksi likely boils down to the actor's ever-growing film commitments. Reportedly, Cho's Kira Yukimura declined to board the project after being offered only half the salary that the other three female co-stars were given. It also goes back to the awkward period after Teen Wolf season 5 where Cho announced that she wouldn't return for the sixth season, leaving many fans wondering what happened behind the scenes.
The biggest mystery is how Reed's character, who was killed off in Teen Wolf season 3, factors into the movie. Given how the later seasons made her death stick, the revival seems highly unlikely, but there are still other ways Reed can return for the film. Without undoing Allison's death, the likeliest scenario could be that she appears through new flashbacks or as a hallucination to Scott and the other characters. With no set release date yet from Paramount+, more details will likely begin to emerge for the Teen Wolf movie, hopefully with more familiar cast members attached.
