Tyler Posey sparks Teen Wolf speculation with a playful Instagram post, teasing projects with Paramount and reviving discussions among fans.
Tyler Posey sparks Teen Wolf speculation with a playful Instagram post. Posey led a long-awaited revival of the popular supernatural drama earlier this year, returning for Teen Wolf: The Movie and reprising his role as Scott McCall. The film, written by series creator Jeff Davis, brought back many of the show’s cast. Though it was met with a divisive response due to some controversial storytelling choices, the Paramount+ movie left the door wide open for sequels and further spinoffs.
As noted by noahaharris within the Teen Wolf community on Reddit, Posey recently shared an Instagram story that sparked speculation about whether he’s returning as Scott McCall once again. In the Instagram story, which is included below, the actor doesn’t mention Teen Wolf, but he looks to be meeting with Paramount, captioning the photo with “hello boss @paramountplus.”
What The Future Of Teen Wolf Could Look Like
Although nothing has been confirmed regarding the future of Teen Wolf, there are several paths to a potential spinoff. Teen Wolf: The Movie ends with a shot of Eli Hale, the son of Derek, looking determined. It’s focused on in a way that suggests the newcomer could lead the franchise moving forward. Derek dies, essentially sacrificing himself towards the third act, and there’s a clear follow-up in Scott and Allison raising the young wolf in a potentially supporting capacity.
This would maintain the franchise’s interest in the themes of chosen family and stepping up for others, even and perhaps especially when they’re not related by blood. An unexpected option for the future of Teen Wolf was discussed by Ian Bohen. The actor, who plays Peter Hale, recently shed light on the fact that he’s pushing hard for a spinoff focused on Peter and Chris Argent. Bohen mentioned the project would involve flashbacks and history, and would thereby hopefully involve Derek.
So far, there have been no reports that Teen Wolf will be back in any way. However, as studios and streaming services continue to turn to brand names and established franchises, it wouldn’t be too much of a shock to see Posey reprise his role. Perhaps, with the reunion film out of the way, the next revival can be more character-driven and less divisive among the fanbase.
