‘Teen Wolf’ season 5 spoilers: Tyler Hoechlin will return (but not as series regular)
If there is one thing that the fans of “Teen Wolf” are probably prepared for on a certain level at this point, it is saying goodbye to cast members. Colton Haynes left the series in what was a pretty stunning decision, while Crystal Reed’s departure led to Allison Argent being killed off.
Who is the latest person to exit? It’s none other than Tyler Hoechlin, who plays Derek Hale on the MTV series. While you should be said, you should also be aware that this is not the identical situation to what we had with some of the aforementioned actors. Speaking to BuzzFeed, executive producer Jeff Davis confirms that the actor will return at some point, but just not in a regular capacity:
“Tyler Hoechlin decided he wanted more time to pursue movies. We talked and creatively agreed that maybe this was a good season to refocus on the teens of Teen Wolf, and while he won’t be a series regular anymore, I can say that you probably won’t have seen the last of Derek Hale. We love him and miss him.”
We do wonder to a certain extent what it is about this show in particular that causes such a high turnover among series regulars, but we imagine that a lot of it probably has to do with the cast being for the most part pretty young, which in turn often translates to mean that they have a variety of other opportunities out there that they want to explore. Also, filming this show is no joke. The fans make it worth it, but there are some long hours required and plenty of night shoots.
