"Buffy the Vampire Slayer" alumna Sarah Michelle Gellar has been tapped to star in and executive produce Paramount+’s upcoming “Teen Wolf” spinoff series “Wolf Pack”, from MTV Entertainment Studios.
Gellar joined "Teen Wolf: The Movie" writer/executive producer Jeff Davis and Tyler Posey and Tyler Hoechlin on the Comic-Con stage. Hoechlin commemorated the moment by taking a selfie.
The spinoff was announced in February and is based on the book series Wolf Pack by Edo van Belkom.
It follows a teenage boy (Armani Jackson) and girl (Bella Shepard) whose lives are forever changed when a California wildfire awakens a terrifying supernatural creature. They meet fraternal twins who were adopted by a park ranger after another wildfire raged through the area, and under the glow of the full moon, all realize they carry the blood of a werewolf.
Gellar stars as arson Investigator Kristin Ramsey, a highly regarded expert in her field and no stranger to personal loss. She is brought in by authorities to catch the teenage arsonist who started a massive wildfire which may have also led to the reawakening of a supernatural predator terrorizing Los Angeles.
She joins previously cast leads Jackson as Everett, Shepard as Blake, Chloe Rose Robertson as Luna, and Tyler Lawrence Gray as Harlan.
Gellar, Davis, and Jason Ensler will executive produce alongside Joe Genier and Mike Elliott of Capital Arts.
"Wolf Pack" will stream exclusively on Paramount+ later this year.
