“Buffy the Vampire Slayer” legend Sarah Michelle Gellar crashed Paramount+’s Teen Wolf: The Movie panel at the San Diego Comic-Con today to announce her casting in the spin-off series “Wolf Pack.”
Of her character, Deadline reports that “Gellar stars as arson Investigator Kristin Ramsey, a highly regarded expert in her field and no stranger to personal loss, 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.”
“Wolf Pack follows a teenage boy, Everett ( Armani Jackson), and a girl, Blake (Bella Shepard), whose lives are forever changed when a California wildfire awakens a terrifying supernatural creature. Wounded in the chaos of its attack, the teens are inexplicably drawn to each other and to two others, fraternal twins Harlan and Luna, who were adopted sixteen years earlier by a park ranger after another mysterious wildfire. As the full moon rises, all four teens come together to unravel the secret that connects them – the bite and blood of a werewolf.”
The upcoming series is based on the book series by Edo Van Belkom. The project also hails from Jeff Davis and also stars Armani Jackson (Honor Society, Chad), Bella Shepard (iCarly, The Wilds), Chloe Rose Robertson (Wildflower), and Tyler Lawrence Gray (Our Town, Macbeth).
In addition to Gellar’s iconic role as Buffy, the actor has starred in horror movies I Know What You Did Last Summer, The Grudge, and Scream 2.
The series comes from exec producer Jeff Davis and MTV Entertainment Studios. Davis and Gellar executive produce alongside Joe Genier and Mike Elliott of Capital Arts. Jason Ensler also executive produces.
Ensler is also on board to direct the pilot episode of “Wolf Pack.”
Expect “Wolf Pack” to arrive on Paramount+ later this year in the U.S. and internationally, where the streaming service is available.
