Watch Out Twilight, MTV To Remake Teen Wolf

MTV Remaking Teen Wolf

MTV’s reinvention of the 1980s movie Teen Wolf is moving forward, says The Hollywood Reporter.

The 1985 film starred Michael J. Fox as a teenager who discovers he is a werewolf.

The MTV version will be set in high school, draw from the horror genre to explore werewolf mythology and include a romantic plot line. “It has a fresh take and is very different from the original,” said Liz Gateley, senior VP MTV series development. “It has more of an ‘American Werewolf in Paris’ feel to it. It’s a dramatic thriller with two best friends in the center who provide a great comedy element: They are two very relatable characters on the outer circles of popular cliques.”
