‘Teen Wolf’: Tyler Hoechlin officially returns as Derek Hale for the film

The ‘Teen Wolf’ movie has already been filming for more than a month, but we still had to confirm if one of the original cast members would return for the feature film continuation of the MTV series. When the main cast was announced, Tyler Hoechlin’s involvement was up in the air, but now it is confirmed that the actor will play Derek Hale again in the film.

According to The Hollywood Reporter, the ‘Superman & Lois’ actor has finally reached an agreement with the studio to reprise the character, and not only that, but also also joins as a producerlike the protagonist, Tyler Posey.

Written by series creator Jeff Davis, ‘Teen Wolf: The Movie’ will premiere exclusively on streaming through the Paramount+ service in the United States. In Spain we still have no news about its launch. In addition to the aforementioned Hoechlin and Posey, much of the original cast of the series returns, including Holland Roden, Shelley Hennig, Crystal Reed, Orny Adams, Linden Ashby, JR Bourne, Colton Haynes, Ryan Kelley, Melissa Ponzio, Ian Bohen, Vince Mattis, Nobi Nakanishi, Khylin Rhambo, Amy Workman, and Dylan Sprayberry.

The plot takes us back to Beacon Hills, where a terrifying new threat appears. According to the official synopsis, “The wolves howl again, calling to the banshees, coyotes, hellhounds, kitsunes, and other shapeshifters of the night. But only one werewolf, Scott McCall (Posey), no longer a teenager but still an Alpha , you can bring together old and new allies to fight against the most powerful and deadly enemy they have ever faced“.

sounded absence

Despite the fact that the ‘Teen Wolf’ movie will feature most of its original cast, there is a loss that clouds this desired return by fans of the fantastic series. As was confirmed last February, Dylan O’Brien will not be in the project.

The actor from ‘The mafia tailor’ and ‘Of love and monsters’, who played the audience’s favorite Stiles Stilinskithe protagonist’s best friend, explained that “It was a difficult decision, for which I took many things into account”but finally he could not find a place for him and decided that his character had been left in a good place and he did not want to revisit it.

Despite the fact that the serious accident he suffered on the set of the ‘Maze Runner’ saga took him away from the cameras for a while, O’Brien is the ‘Teen Wolf’ actor who has done the best after the series, so it was feared that he would not participate in the film, which has been fulfilled. Sadly, fans will not be able to see the desired reunion between his character and Hoechlin’s, who will form one of the most revered ships on the internet: Sterek. On the other hand, Arden Cho, who played Kira in the series, does not return either.
