Paramount+ is reportedly at work on a movie revival of MTV’s “Teen Wolf” series as part of a new overall deal series creator Jeff Davis signed with MTV Entertainment Studios.
Davis will write and executive produce the film and talks are currently underway with original series cast members to return four years after the show ended its six season run.
The series, a serialised “Buffy”-esque school-set supernatural spooker inspired by the Michael J. Fox comedy film, ran from 2011-2017 and launched the careers of several of its key stars, most notably “The Maze Runner” lead Dylan O’Brien and “Superman & Lois” actor Tyler Hoechlin.
The movie sees a terrifying evil emerging in the town of Beacon Hills. Only a Werewolf like Scott McCall (Tyler Posey), no longer a teenager yet still an Alpha, can gather both new allies and reunite trusted friends to fight the deadliest enemy they’ve ever faced.
Davis’ deal also includes a new series based on Edo Van Belkom’s “Wolf Pack” books, and the planned live-action series reboot of “Aeon Flux” which is moving over to Paramount+ from MTV. He will serve as showrunner on both.
