teenwolfcastThe pilot for the revamped (or should we say “re-wolfed?”) version of “Teen Wolf” has been cast, according to the Hollywood Reporter.

Tyler Posey, Tyler Hoechlin, Crystal Reed and Dylan O’Brien have signed on for the pilot, which is being produced by “Criminal Minds” creator Jeff Davis..

The original cult classic comedy starred Michael J. Fox as a seemingly normal teenager who discovers he’s a werewolf and then uses his new-found power to achieve every high-school boy’s dream of playing great basketball and hooking up with the most popular girl in school.

The new version is described as a dramatic thriller with a buddy-comedy element at the center and a romantic plot line.

It revolves around Scott McCall (Posey), a dorky high-school student who gets a rush of new powers, including the ability to attract girls, after a wolf attack.

O’Brien will play Scott’s best friend who is initially dismissive of Scott’s theory that he was bitten by a wolf but then begins research on human-werewolf transformation.

Reed will play a sweet new girl at school who is immediately smitten with Scott. Reed is repped by Mavrick Artists and Main Title.

Hoechlin will play a handsome local boy who in fact is a vicious and predatory werewolf capable of great harm.
