'Teen Wolf' Reboot: Cast Talks Bringing Back the MTV Show

Is Teen Wolf ever coming back to MTV? From the sound of it, the entire cast is ready to reprise their iconic roles — and some will for the Teen Wolf movie on Paramount+.

Starring Tyler Posey, Dylan O’Brien, Crystal Reed, Holland Roden, Tyler Hoechlin, Dylan Sprayberry, Arden Cho, Daniel Sharman and more, the series — loosely based on the 1985 film of the same name — followed a teenage boy named Scott McCall who gets bitten by a werewolf in his hometown of Beacon Hills. Along with his best friend Stiles, Scott used his newfound identity to save their town from the supernatural beings that inhabit it. Teen Wolf aired for six seasons from 2011 until 2017.

Reboot rumors first started swirling in March 2020 when Tyler took to Twitter and told MTV that “it’s time” to bring the show back. “Hey @MTV I think it’s time to bring Teen Wolf back for new episodes. First Jersey Shore Family Vacation. Now Teen Wolf high school reunion. I’m ready. And 28 so it’s an appropriate age,” the actor wrote.

The entire cast even reunited for an epic Zoom chat in June 2020, and spilled some major Teen Wolf tea. Dylan — who played Stiles — said that all these year later his “heart lies and dies with Teen Wolf,” and we’re super emotional about the love they have for the show. Tyler — who starred as Scott — revealed that he’s actually rewatched the series!

“I don’t know if it’s because I haven’t seen it in years but I was looking at it from such a different perspective. I cried at every single thing that you were supposed to cry at — maybe more,” he gushed during the reunion. “I was really proud of every single one of us. We really f–king did a cool, really really good job.”

Even though details about bringing the cast back to Beacon Hills have been kept under wraps, some cast members have shared major teasers about the possible reboot. During a March 2021 interview with Variety, Tyler, once again, brought up the idea of getting the gang back together for more episodes. “I’ve been coming up with concepts in my head for the last few years texting them to [series creator] Jeff Davis, ‘Hey Jeff. We need to do this idea,’” he gushed. “So I’m a huge advocate of bringing ‘Teen Wolf’ back.”

The Cast Is Down

After Tyler’s initial tweet in March 2020, some fellow former castmates replied and expressed their interest in a reboot. Colton Haynes hit back with, “I’m in!”

Later additions to the cast, Khylin Rhambo and Cody Christian, also shared some excitement.

“I agree with all these things. Count me TF in,” Khylin said. Cody added, “I’m. So. Down.”

Coming Together

Dylan gave fans hope for a possible reboot with his comments in October 2020.

“That was my first character ever, and Stiles, to me, is just my heart and soul,” he said when appearing on Variety’s “The Big Ticket” Podcast. “Obviously, I would jump at the chance to do any kind of thing. There’s got to be some kind … I mean, we’ll come back together for something at some point.”

Possibly Story Lines

Tyler also shared his ideas for a reboot with Entertainment Tonight in October 2020.

“I’m always hopeful. Always. I love Teen Wolf, and during the lockdown, I actually rewatched the entire thing and I fell in love with it even more. It’s so good. It’s so good. I’m so proud and impressed. We were so young and I’m just like, ‘I’m really impressed with what we did.’ I got together the cast to do a Zoom reunion, and so far that’s the culmination of my efforts to try and get Teen Wolf back,” he said. “There’s no talk in expanding the series. I did, one night, have an idea of Scott McCall going to college and just being a normal werewolf inside of the world. I recorded a three-minute-long voicemail and sent it to [executive producer] Jeff Davis and he thought it was hilarious, but it’s a completely different idea.”

He continued, “My idea was that that in Beacon Hills, there’s a lot of supernatural stuff going on, but there’s a lot of supernatural stuff going on in the entire world — and we didn’t really know that. We were just contained to Beacon Hills, and Beacon Hills was kind of like a novice at containing the supernatural. So when Scott goes out to the real world, he sees how everybody else handles supernatural stuff and how much better of a job they did than Beacon Hills … It would be more of a comedic thing, but I don’t think that’s going to happen.”

Wants More

“We gotta give these kids what they want. I want it too,” Tyler said during a September 2021 interview on The Zach Sang Show. “It’s something I’ve always wanted to do. … It would be cool to see everyone older.”

As for the rest of the cast, he thinks that “everyone would be down” to reprise their roles. “Or otherwise, I’ll do it alone,” Tyler joked.
