A full moon rises again.

Teen Wolf fans are being fed like never before with the arrival of Teen Wolf: The Movie. Most of the original cast is back, including Crystal Reed, as the most powerful and deadliest enemy yet has arrived in Beacon Hills.

Thankfully, Tyler Posey's character Scott McCall is now an alpha werewolf and he's bringing together new allies and trusted friends to fight against their biggest rival yet.

Posey is just as excited to be back as the fans are to see him and the gang return. "I've been trying to manifest this for ten years. I'm just over the moon that we can be doing this again and bringing it back. I'm a little anxious, because I'm excited to see what [the fans] are going to say," Posey tells PRIDE.

Fans were thrilled to see Crystal Reed return to the movie as Allison, but Reed assures that Allison is not the same character fans know and love her from in the hit MTV series.

"Allison's back in the flesh, but she might not be back mentally or emotionally. That will be challenging for the fans to watch. But maybe, there's hope in the end," Reed teases.

Teen Wolf amassed a huge LGBTQ+ following during its peak years on MTV. Posey even opened up on his journey accepting his sexuality while filming the TV show.

"I've had people come up to me and [say I was] part of their gay awakening. I just give them a huge hug. I love it so much! We were so ahead of our time back then. We made everything so inclusive. These kids are gay and that's what it is. Everyone just felt safe and normal," Posey says.

Not only did the LGBTQ+ community rally behind Teen Wolf, but so did the Tumblr stans! It's safe to say the show built a huge fanbase that still buzzes about the cast to this day.

"It's really amazing. Often times, I try to figure out the formula for the phenomenon behind it, but I really can't. It's just something that I'm really humbled by," Reed concludes.

Teen Wolf: The Movie premieres January 26 on Paramount+. To see the full interview with Tyler Posey and Crystal Reed, check out the video below.
