‘Teen Wolf: The Movie’ Will Bring Back Tyler Posey and More Series Cast
Announced last year, Paramount+ is bringing back the “Teen Wolf” series with Teen Wolf: The Movie, a feature length continuation coming to Paramount+ later this year.
From creator Jeff Davis, MTV Entertainment Studios, and MGM’s Orion Television, Teen Wolf: The Movie will star returning actors Tyler Posey, Holland Roden, Shelley Hennig, and Crystal Reed, set to reprise their roles alongside Orny Adams, Linden Ashby, JR Bourne, Seth Gilliam, Colton Haynes, Ryan Kelley, Melissa Ponzio and Dylan Sprayberry.
In the new 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 they’ve ever faced.”
The streaming service has also announced “Wolf Pack” for 2022, based on the book series by Edo Van Belkom. The project will be an all-new series, also from Jeff Davis!
Loosely based on the ’80s movie, “Teen Wolf” launched in 2011 with Tyler Posey starring as a young werewolf. The series ran for six seasons, coming to an end in September 2017.
Posey’s Scott McCall defends his town from other supernatural threats. The entire 100-episode “Teen Wolf” library is also available to stream on Paramount+ in key global markets.
The found footage movie Hunting Matthew Nichols was independently self-released in theaters back in April, the film scaring up a solid $710,532 in around 1,000 theaters across the country. We don’t yet have an at-home release date for the film, but a sequel is in the works.
Deadline reports that director Markian Tarasiuk has signed with Anonymous Content for representation in the wake of the film’s theatrical release, and it’s within this report that Deadline makes mention of a sequel. Deadline notes, “Tarasiuk is currently developing a sequel to the hit indie title as he continues to build toward larger-scale commercial studio filmmaking.”
Hunting Matthew Nichols was made on a budget of just $275,000, and the film’s low budget and self distribution strategy allowed for it to become profitable in theaters.
Markian Tarasiuk makes his directorial debut on the Canadian indie found footage film. He also stars alongside Miranda MacDougall and Ryan Alexander McDonald.
“On Halloween 2001, Matthew Nichols and Jordan Reimer went into the forests of northern Vancouver Island near Port Rupert with a VHS camcorder — and vanished without a trace. Their camera was later recovered, but the boys were never found. Two decades later, Matthew’s sister, Tara, has hired a film crew to document her search for answers.”
“A sneaky, simmering take on the true crime folk horror genre that boils over and becomes truly unnerving,” Steven Soderbergh (Contagion, Ocean’s Eleven) had praised.
Stay tuned for at-home release information for Hunting Matthew Nichols.
Luiz H.C. wrote in his review for Bloody Disgusting, “I’d recommend this indie gem to fans of slow-burning supernatural terror everywhere – as well as true crime enthusiasts who wish that missing persons cases could come with a side of paranormal frights.”
