Looks like Tyler Hoechlin is on his way out as MTV's hunky werewolf Derek Hale. It has been recently revealed that Hoechlin will not be a series regular on the supernatural drama and will only have recurring appearances on the show.
BuzzFeed reports the actor will be making fewer appearances in "Teen Wolf" in order to pursue a career in film. The series co-creator Jeff Davis confirmed the news of Hoechlin's decision to leave in an interview with MTV.
"He said he felt like he was at a point in his career where he wanted to try new things, things that scare him, but wasn't quite ready to let go of the family he created on Teen Wolf." The show runner also added, "We love him and miss him."
Hoechlin's character, Derek Hale, was given a decent send-off in the closing episodes of season four, where he could head off to Mexico with his new powers that enable him to transform into a full wolf like his mother. This was an indicator that we would see less of him but also left the door open for him to return to the supernatural series.
Meanwhile the first promo trailer for season five has been revealed. The 20-second video premiered at the 2015 MTV Movie Awards and introduced viewers to a trio of new villains. We also got a look at some of the returning cast members along with some terrifying and gruesome scenes. Check it out below:
1. Two episode titles have been revealed! The first being "Creatures of the Night" written by Jeff Davis and the second titles "Condition Terminal."
2. According to Movie Plot's website the main focus will primarily deal with identifying the Desert Wolf. We will also learn more about Deputy Jordan Perrish (Ryan Kelley) type of monster and see some more air time from the Argent's. Apparently Chris is still on the hunt for his were-jaguar sister Kate and will have help from Araya Calavera (Ivonne Coll).
3. On September 11, 2014, Holland Roden who plays Lydia Martin revealed that "you're going to have to tune in for season five to see if we're all coming back or not. That's just reality... It’s sort of a toss up of who is not coming back for season five, but somebody is not coming back."
4. As of now the main cast is listed as Tyler Posey as Scott McCall, Dylan O'Brien as Stiles Stilinski, Tyler Hoechlin as Derek Hale, Holland Roden as Lydia Martin, Shelley Hennig as Malia Tate, Arden Cho as Kira Yukimura and Dylan Sprayberry as Liam Dunbar.
5. Dylan Sprayberry who plays the new wolf Liam will be getting a love interest in season five. It is also revealed his friendship with Mason will be explored more.
6. Orny Adams who plays Coach Finstock revealed he would not be returning to the fifth season due to scheduling issues.
7. Steven Brand has been added to the cast of season five as the new villain Dr. Valack.
8. Early this year Cody Christian was cast as Theo, "a lone wolf who is drawn to town in search of a pack. He’s described as athletic and charming yet covert, and while it may appear that the young adult is new to town, his past might suggest otherwise."
9. Shelley Hennig hinted about what is in store for Malia and Stiles in season five in an interview with Hollywood Life.
The actress said, "It's really important to Stiles to help me figure it who the Desert Wolf is, who my mother is. There's also a fear there to figure out is she good [or] is she evil? Will it change their relationship? "It could. That whole situation is not easy for a 17-year-old so hopefully Stiles makes it a smoother process."
10. According to Teen Wolf News, there is someone new joining the cast in season five. He is none other than 16-year old Michael Lynch, who is set to play a supernatural creature named Sluagh.
According to the report, Sluagh is "a creature of Irish and Scottish myth that eats the souls of innocents and sometimes places parts of its rotten soul into the bodies of its sleeping victims." Further, Sluagh is a fan-designed creature for the show, who is rumored to come from a secret supernatural jail in a mental health facility.
11. According to SpoilerTV, the show is currently casting for a young version of Scott McCall, who is of course played by Tyler Posey in the present. You will see him in a flashback scene, seemingly having an asthma attack.
