Tyler Posey Headlines MTV’s ‘Teen Wolf’

tp

Eighteen-year-old actor Tyler Posey is set to play the lead in MTV’s upcoming cable serial Teen Wolf. Based on the 1985 werewolf-comedy of the same name, the series will revolve around Scott McCall, a high-school outcast who gains powers and popularity after being bitten by a wolf. Costars include Crystal Reed as the love interest, Dylan O’Brien as the best friend, and Tyler Hoechlin as the series’ villain.

MTV describes the new Teen Wolf as a dramatic thriller with comedic and romantic plot lines. “Criminal Minds” creator Jeff Davis is attached to write the pilot episode and will serve as executive producer along with “Prison Break’s” Marty Adelstein and “Medium’s” Rene Echevarria.

The original Teen Wolf starred Emmy award-winning actor Michael J. Fox. The film grossed an impressive $33 million upon its release in ’85 and remains a cult classic today. Teen Wolf Too, starring Jason Bateman, didn’t fare as well, raking in only a little over $7 million in 1987.

On a personal note, I just don’t see how they can top this:
