While the Michael J. Fox film delighted moviegoers way back in the day, this new updated from MTV which will premiere after the MTV Movie Awards on June 5th, is going for a very different angle while still using the core ideas.
“We are always up for creative challenges at MTV,” Liz Gateley, then-MTV senior vice president of series development said when the show was announced. “We loved the conceit of the original film and knew the title had a great hook. The creative challenge was to take that title and reinvent it as a horror series for the MTV audience. It combines romance and high school to make ‘Teen Wolf’ the perfect thriller for MTV.”
Plot Summary: The series is based around a young outsider named Scott McCall, who, one night, wanders around the woods in search of a dead body and is attacked by a werewolf. He escapes the attack with only a bite to his side, but starts to notice some changes in himself.
