'Teen Wolf' season 6 spoilers, updates: Cody Christian returns; MTV releases new photos of Stiles
You can't keep a good man down. That saying is definitely apropos for "Teen Wolf" as season 6 will see the return of both Dylan O'Brien and Cody Christian.
Despite being dragged to (presumably) hell by his dead sister at the end of season 5, Theo will reportedly return to Beacon Hills when "Teen Wolf" returns for a sixth season.
According to Entertainment Weekly, Cody Christian will reprise his role as Theo next season. Fans will recall that the chimera was a big thorn in Scott's (Tyler Posey) side last season as he tried to get rid of the latter's pack while trying to establish himself as alpha of his own pack. However, the finale saw Theo being betrayed by Deucalion (Gideon Emery) and the Dread Doctors defeated by Scott and his friends.
There have been rumors that Theo might be coming back as a villain in season 6, something that the actor has hinted at as well. But according to an interview Hypable had with Christian at the press room at this year's San Diego Comic-Con, Theo's foray into hell has affected him and that he'll return to Beacon Hills a broken man. He will also be even more determined to stay alive and will attempt to make amends with Scott and his pack. As expected, the others won't be too welcoming, but the information he has about their common enemy, the Ghost Riders, might help smooth things over.
MTV has also announced the return of Dylan O'Brien's Stiles Stilinski with new photos from the upcoming season. The actor was famously involved in an accident on the set of "The Maze Runner: The Death Cure" several months ago that prompted production of the film to be shut down indefinitely, while he recuperated. This has led fans to worry about whether the accident would also affect his "Teen Wolf" character.
The photos will hopefully convince fans that Stiles is alive and well. And according to showrunner Jeff Davis, he will also play a key part in season 6.
"Stiles is a big part of the season because a lot of this season's mystery revolves around him," Davis told EW.
The producer further teased that fans will see just how much Stiles' friendship means to Scott, Malia (Shelley Hennig), and Lydia (Holland Roden). They might also get to see Stiles and Lydia finally embark on a relationship.
"Teen Wolf" season 6 is set to premiere on MTV in November.
