âWeâve heard your howls, and weâre howling back! đş A Teen Wolf MOVIE is coming to Paramount Plus in 2022.â
âTeen Wolfâ Revival Movie Set at Paramount Plus as Creator Jeff Davis Inks MTV Entertainment Studios Overall Deal (EXCLUSIVE)
A movie revival of the âTeen Wolfâ MTV series is in the works at Paramount Plus as part of a new overall deal series creator Jeff Davis has signed with MTV Entertainment Studios, Variety has learned exclusively.
Davisâ multi-year deal will see him write and executive produce the film, with talks currently underway with original series cast members to return. The news comes on the four year anniversary of the original âTeen Wolfâ finale on MTV.
In addition to the âTeen Wolfâ movie, Davis will also develop a new series for the streamer based on Edo Van Belkomâs âWolf Packâ books, with Davis serving as showrunner on that series. Finally, the previously announced âAeon Fluxâ live-action reboot â on which Davis will serve as showrunner and pilot director â has moved over to Paramount Plus after originally being set up at MTV.
Davisâ slate falls under the purview of MTV Entertainment president and CEO Chris McCarthy, who has previously laid out a strategy of using existing IP within the ViacomCBS ecosystem while also building out new franchises to boost the companyâs programming and streaming efforts.
In addition to developing âTeen Wolf,â Davis also served as executive producer and showrunner on the series throughout its run. He is also known for creating the hit CBS procedural âCriminal Minds,â which ended its time on the broadcaster in 2020 after 15 seasons and over 300 episodes.
He is repped by WME, Authentic Talent & Literary Management, and Jackoway Austen Tyerman.
In the âTeen Wolfâ movie, a terrifying evil has emerged in the town of Beacon Hills. The wolves are howling once again, calling for the return of Banshees, Werecoyotes, Hellhounds, Kitsunes, and every other shapeshifter in the night. But only a Werewolf like Scott McCall, no longer a teenager yet still an Alpha, can gather both new allies and reunite trusted friends to fight back against what could be the most powerful and deadliest enemy theyâve ever faced.
Tyler Posey starred as McCall in the original series, with the cast also including Dylan OâBrien, Crystal Reed, Tyler Hoechlin, Holland Roden, Colton Haynes, and Arden Cho. It was loosely based on the 1985 Michael J. Fox feature comedy of the same name. The show aired on MTV from 2011-2017 for six seasons and 100 episodes. In December, the full series will be available to stream on Paramount Plus.
In âWolf Pack,â a teenage boy and girlâs lives are changed forever when a California wildfire awakens a terrifying supernatural creature and drives it to attack a highway traffic jam beneath the burning hills. Wounded in the chaos, the boy and girl are inexplicably drawn to each other and to two other teenagers who were adopted sixteen years earlier by a park ranger after another mysterious wildfire. As the full moon rises, all four teens come together to unravel the secret that connects them â the bite and blood of a werewolf. There are four books in the âWolf Packâ series, which were released between 2004 and 2008.
