Teen Wolf is an American television series that currently airs on MTV. The series premiered on June 5, 2011, following the 2011 MTV Movie Awards. Teen Wolf is a supernatural drama series that follows Scott McCall (Tyler Posey), a high school student and social outcast that gets bitten by a werewolf and attempts to maintain a normal life while hiding his secret life as a werewolf and dealing with numerous supernatural dangers with the help of his trusted best friend Stiles Stilinski (Dylan O'Brien), and mysterious werewolf, Derek Hale (Tyler Hoechlin).

Casting announcements were announced in December 2010, with the rest of the main cast being Crystal Reed, Holland Roden and Colton Haynes.

Scott McCall
Scott McCall, portrayed by Tyler Posey, is the series' main protagonist. Scott is bitten by a werewolf, transforming him into a werewolf as well. Using his new supernatural abilities, he is now the captain of his high-school lacrosse team. He falls in love with Allison, who he later discovers to be part of an old werewolf-hunter family. Seeing his new abilities as a curse, Scott wishes to find a cure.

Scott is extremely caring and protective of his loved ones, particularly Allison, who he regards as both his greatest strength and his greatest weakness, and his mother, Melissa. He willingly risks his own life to protect those close to him, as well as anyone he deems innocent, and tries to balance the relationships he shares with those around him with his double-life and the dangers it presents. Scott lives with his mother, who works as a hospital nurse; his father is out of the picture, though this does not bother Scott and his mother, both of whom are content with just each other. Scott is closest to his best friend, Stiles.

"Teen Wolf: The Hunt", a Teen Wolf inspired social network game for Facebook, states that Scott was born on August 23. He likes guitars, horror films, and skateboarding, and is a fan of The Black Lips, Kids of 88, Blink-182, and Lost in Kostko (Tyler Posey's band in real life, in which he plays guitar and sings lead vocals).

Allison Argent
Allison Argent, portrayed by Crystal Reed, is Scott's love interest, and a descendent from a long line of werewolf hunters. She is at first unaware of Scott and Derek's lives as werewolves, and her family's werewolf-hunter life. By the end of season 1, she discovers that Scott and Derek are werewolves, though this does not halt her relationship with Scott, and learns of her family's werewolf-hunter life.

Allison is caring, sweet, and agile with a natural talent for archery. Unlike her grandfather Gerard and aunt Kate, both of whom murdered werewolves regardless of their innocence, she believes in the Argents' hunting code ("Nous Chassons ceux qui nous chassent", which is French for "We hunt those who hunt us") like her father, Chris Argent. Her father soon starts Allison's training to be a werewolf hunter. In Season 2, Allison is corrupted by Gerard, who emotionally blackmails her into attacking innocent werewolves, but she soon realizes her mistake. She hates the feeling of being weak and uses her training to take care of herself in dangerous situations.

"Teen Wolf: The Hunt", a Teen Wolf inspired social network game, states that Allison was born on March 19 in Elkhorn, Wisconsin. She likes archery, running, and Unicef, and is a fan of Karmin, Arcade Fire, Florence and the Machine, One Direction, and Vampire Weekend.

Stiles Stilinski
Stiles Stilinski, portrayed by Dylan O'Brien, is Scott's long-time childhood best friend and the show's breakout character. He is shown to be very intelligent, if not somewhat impractical about things, and caring with a sarcastic nature. The show alludes to him having attention deficit hyperactivity disorder through references to his Adderall use, which lends to his fidgeting gestures and frequent flailing. Stiles provides comic relief to the otherwise dramatic events that plague him and Scott. His eagerness to help and his caring nature often puts him in dangerous situations.

Stiles holds an intense but unrequited love for Lydia Martin, having harbored a crush for her since the third grade. Stiles also shares a very close relationship with his father, Sheriff Stilinski; his mother died when he was a little boy. Stiles is shown to be insecure about his mother's death, blaming himself for it and thinking it will come between him and his father. He wishes he could help and protect his father in some way, feeling he can't because he does not have supernatural abilities. "Stiles" is not his first name; creator Jeff Davis has stated that Stiles' real name hasn't been revealed. It is canon that Stiles' first name was his maternal grandfather's name.

"Teen Wolf: The Hunt", a Teen Wolf inspired social network game, states that Stiles was born on April 8. He likes drumming, snowboarding, and the New York Mets. He is a fan of the bands The Ramones, The Offspring, Mumford and Sons, and Slow Kids At Play (Dylan O'Brien's band in real life, in which he plays drums).

Derek Hale
Derek Hale, portrayed by Tyler Hoechlin, is a werewolf by genetic lycanthropy, passed down through his family line. He is one of three survivors of the fire that burned down his family's home (the other two being his older sister, Laura Hale, and his uncle, Peter Hale). In the season 1 finale, Derek becomes The New Alpha werewolf after killing his uncle, the previous Alpha, to avenge Laura's death.

Despite his competitive and cold nature, Derek genuinely cares for Scott and his friends, and always tries to keep them out of danger's way. He strongly disapproves of Scott's relationship with Allison, due to the fact that she's a hunter. He shares an antagonistic relationship with the Argents, mainly because Kate Argent (who is deceased after season 1) started the fire that killed the Hale family. As the new alpha, Derek assembles himself a pack, consisting of three students from Beacon Hills High who all have dark backgrounds, just as he does.

Creator and producer Jeff Davis released a statement on Twitter insinuating that Derek is older than the audience thinks, and more will be revealed about him in season 3, premiering in 2013.

Lydia Martin
Lydia Martin, portrayed by Holland Roden, is Beacon Hills High's most popular female student. At first, Lydia is portrayed to be a shallow girl but in reality, she is surprisingly caring, especially about her friends, and extremely intelligent, particularly excelling in math and science. She is well aware of Stiles's feelings for her but does not return them, and showed her warm nature in the first episode by immediately befriending Allison on her first day at school. Her love interest is Jackson Whittemore; although in the first season she makes it apparent she is merely dating him due to his high social status, it is revealed that she cares more about him than she lets on and may even be in love with him. The two share a conflicted but close relationship.

At the end of season 1, Lydia is bitten by The Alpha Peter Hale but neither dies nor turns. Instead, she is revealed to be immune. This goes against her in season 2 when Peter Hale uses her immunity to come back to life. In the season 2 finale, Lydia faces the Kanima and is able to get it to transform back into Jackson by holding up the house key Jackson had given her when they were together. When Jackson asks if she still loves him, she responds that she does.

"Teen Wolf: The Hunt", a Teen Wolf inspired social network game, states that Lydia was born on March 23. She likes Mu Alpha Theta, figure skating, yoga, and astrophysics, and is a fan of Madonna, Calvin Harris, Kids of 88, Muse, and Kat Graham.

Jackson Whittemore
Jackson Whittemore, portrayed by Colton Haynes, is the former captain, now former co-captain, of the Beacon Hills lacrosse team. He has a competitive and aggressive nature, which shows through hostility towards people who best him. The show implies that he wants to make others proud of him. Despite his abrasive personality, he cares about his friends and dislikes hurting them. He is insecure about his adoption and the fact that he does not know his real parents, leading him to be unable to see his adoptive parents as his true mother and father. His birth mother had died on June 14 while pregnant, meaning he had been pulled out of his dead mother's womb.

Though Derek gives Jackson the bite, his body rejects it in season 2 and Jackson instead becomes the Kanima, a murderous shapeshifting creature that is a weapon of vengeance. The Kanima seeks a master who wishes to exact revenge on others to control it, revealing that as the Kanima, Jackson's every move is controlled by someone else. Jackson does not know that he is the Kanima, nor does the Kanima side of him know that it is Jackson. It is revealed that he became the Kanima because he is an orphan, meaning he lacks an identity. He can be saved by a person with whom he shared a true bond; in Jackson's case, this person is Lydia. Through Lydia's selflessness in the finale, Jackson heals and finally becomes a werewolf—however, with blue eyes rather than gold. Creator Jeff Davis stated that Jackson's eyes are blue for a reason, which will be revealed in season 3, premiering in 2013.

"Teen Wolf: The Hunt", a Teen Wolf inspired social network game, states that Jackson was born on June 15. He likes Porsche, Golden State Warriors, USC Trojans, and the San Jose Sharks, and is a fan of Wiz Khalifa, Nicki Minaj, Drake, and Gym Class Heroes.

On October 12, 2012 it was announced that Colton Haynes will not be returning to the show.

Isaac Lahey
Isaac Lahey, portrayed by Daniel Sharman, introduced in season 2, is a tormented teen and lacrosse player who lives across the street from Jackson. Isaac was abused by his father, who tortured him by often locking him in their basement freezer. Isaac is turned into a werewolf by Derek and becomes the first member of Derek's pack. He wished to become a werewolf to feel powerful and confident after a long history of physical and mental abuse from his father, who is murdered by the Kanima in the season 2 premiere.

Unlike the others in Derek's pack, Isaac has control of his inner wolf during the full moon, and has good intentions and a warm heart. Among the dangerous events, Isaac sides with Scott, revealing that he trusts him and holds onto Scott's friendship because he doesn't have anyone there for him. He helps Scott against Gerard and stays as a part of Derek's pack instead of following the others in the pack, who want to leave Derek. It is implied that Isaac looks up to Derek in the way that he couldn't look up to his own father. Creator Jeff Davis has stated that Isaac will be a big part of season 3, premiering in 2013, and will possibly threaten Scott and Stiles' friendship with his own close bond that he shares with Scott.

"Teen Wolf: The Hunt", a Teen Wolf inspired social network game, states that Isaac was born on September 22, and likes lacrosse and BMX. He is a fan of M. Ward, Belle and Sebastian, Coldplay, and Feist.

Werewolves

 * Peter Hale (Ian Bohen)
 * Peter is Derek's uncle and was the main antagonist in the first season. Prior to the series, he was badly burned on the right side of his face and was assumed to be paralyzed. He was The Alpha who bit and turned Scott McCall into a werewolf. Peter bit Lydia at the end of season 1, though she survived, due to being immune. He also murdered Kate Argent after revealing that it was she who had murdered The Hale family. He was burned alive by Scott, Allison, Stiles, and Jackson, while Derek slashed his throat to avenge his sister Laura's death and become The New Alpha.


 * In season 2, Peter shockingly returns by using Lydia's immunity as a weapon to come back to life. Fully resurrected, though still physically weak, Peter offers help to Derek, gaining his trust by explaining that he knows how to save Jackson. In the season 2 finale, he helps Derek, Scott and Isaac with what to do about Jackson, and later reveals to Derek and Isaac that an Alpha pack, consisting of only Alpha werewolves, has come to Beacon Hills, indicating new danger. Show Executive Producer Jeff Davis confirmed that Peter Hale reverted to a Beta wolf class once he was resurrected. Peter's actual motives for returning are yet to be revealed in season 3, premiering in 2013.


 * Laura Hale
 * Laura was Derek's sister. She was born a werewolf, as her parents were werewolves themselves. Laura and her brother were not present when the Hale Manor was burned by Kate Argent. It is unknown if the fire caused her to become the Hale family Alpha werewolf leader or if she already held that title prior to the fire. Unlike other wolves, Laura was able to transform into a fully formed canine wolf while in her Alpha state. Sometime after the fire, Laura returned to Beacon Hills to investigate who was responsible for the fire. She was able to uncover that a man named Harris was somehow involved, which ended up being high school chemistry teacher Adrian Harris. Before she could uncover more, Laura found her uncle Peter Hale wandering alone in the woods dressed only in his bathrobe and slippers. Concerned, she called out to him. When he turned to face her, Peter changed into his werewolf form and killed her in an attempt to become an Alpha himself. Her upper body was then buried near the now destroyed Hale Manor, anchored to a blooming wolfsbane flower above her burial spot. Her lower half was left in the woods, later to be found by the local police. When the wolfsbane flower was removed by Scott and Stiles when they unearthed Laura's body, it caused her to shift from her canine form back to human. Strangely enough, Kate Argent (before her death) admitted to Derek that she was the one who cut Laura's body in two. Whether this is true or not has not been revealed. However in a later episode Kate's father kills an Omega werewolf by slicing him in two, giving the impression that this is a standard practice for werewolf hunters.
