Produced by MTV Entertainment Studios and MGM’s Orion Television, Hoechlin, alongside Tyler Posey, will also serve as a producer on the film.

"A full moon rises in Beacon Hills and with it a terrifying evil has emerged," reads the official description for the streaming-only flick. 

"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 (Posey), 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."

Hoechlin currently stars as Clark Kent, aka Superman, on The CW's Superman & Lois.

Throughout Superman & Lois Season 2, Hoechlin shared the screen with his Teen Wolf co-star, Ian Bohen.

Now, fans will get to see the pair on-screen all over again in a story that will take them back to Beacon Hills.

News of Hoechlin's casting might come as a surprise to some because it seemed like the movie would be moving forward with Derek's son, Eli Hale.

Vince Mattis landed the role.

As previously reported, Dylan O'Brien and Arden Cho are not returning.

“It was a difficult decision,” the actor said in an interview with Variety.

“The show couldn’t be more dear to me. It was the first thing I ever did I and so many people there are extremely dear to me."

The project is currently filming and is expected to launch on Paramount+ later this year.

Teen Wolf Quotes

I have a son. His name is Mieczyslaw Stilinski, but we call him Stiles. I remember. When Stiles was a little kid, he couldn't say his first name. I'm not sure why, it pretty much rolls off the tongue, but the closest he could was mischief. His mother called him that until...I remember when Stiles first got his jeep. It belonged to his mother. She wanted him to have it. The first time he took a spin behind the wheel, he went straight into a ditch. I gave him his first roll of duct tape that day. He was always getting into trouble, but he always had a good heart, always. We're here tonight because my goofball son because he decided to drag Scott, his greatest friend in the world, into the woods to see a dead body.

Malia: Alright. I'll ask. Who's Kate Argent?
Kira: [raising hand] Uh, I'd like to know, too.
Stiles: Well, we were at her funeral, so I'd like to know how she got out from a casket buried six feet under ground.
