Kind of - Teen Wolf's Jeff Davis Answers Fan Questions March 10, 2016 Paul.rea As promised, I inundated Teen Wolf showrunner Jeff Davis with your questions this week. As is his way, Davis answered some of them straight up and with some others he made with the cryptic.

There are a number of areas like casting and spoilers that he really can’t talk about due to edicts from the network. Other stuff he keeps vague because the writers need to leave themselves some wiggle room for future stories. What’s coming in Season 6 Q. Which main characters are for sure leaving the show and who is for sure staying? A. “Too much of Season 6 is uncertain (and there are still a few outstanding actor deals to work out) so I have to leave some of the who is staying and who is leaving to MTV Press. But I can tell you that we’ll definitely be focusing more time on Liam, Mason, Hayden and Corey and the ups and downs of those relationships in future episodes.” Q. Are you going to miss writing for Theo? A. Cody was always a pleasure to write for. And there’s something about writing dialogue for a villain that allows you to tap into your darkest side. It’s kind of cathartic. I may be saying 'goodbye' to his character asI step back from the show a bit, but for the audience it may be more of a 'see you later.'" Q. Multiple fans asked about possible returns – Any chance Peter, Danny, Kate, (insert name here) will be returning for a Season 6 appearance? A. “MTV Press prefers that I not mention. But yes, there will be another returning character or two this season. We almost had one person return this season but the negotiations didn’t work out unfortunately.” Q. What's your favorite thing about your concept and the early scripts for Season 6?

A. I love the new mythology we’ve come up for this season. It reinvents the show in a way that we hope is satisfying to the audience.” “If last season was a “Monster Movie” this season will be more of a psychological thriller, more of a ghost story actually. It’s definitely a challenging season, having to rush back into production, working around actor schedules and trying to keep things fresh after eighty episodes. But we’re still excited by the stories and the relationships. And we’re still trying to scare the hell out of the audience.” Q. S6: Nazi Werewolf? A. “As you’ve seen from the final image of the last episode, we may be exploring this in the future.” What Might Have Been Q. February last year I learned that you were considering a Season 6. Before that point it seemed Season 5 would be the last. How different was this Season Finale from what you and the writers initially conceived as the Series Finale?

A. “We’ve had various and vague ideas on how to end the show for a while, but nothing actually concrete because the network had been hinting for a while that this might not be the end. It’s now getting a bit hard to tell when the show might actually end. No one has ruled out a Season 7 yet.” Stydia or Stalia or Why Not Both Q. No one deserves the “It’s Complicated” Facebook relationship status more than Stiles and Lydia and Malia. In your head, where do all these folks' relationships stand now? A. “This very question becomes a main focus of Season 6 and is dealt with heavily in the first episode.” Q. Do you want to elaborate on the love that drove Marcel to dedicate more than a century of his life to bringing Sebastien back? Also, I assumed but might as well ask, Sebastien was an evil killing bastard before he became a werewolf, right?

A. No elaboration necessary :) and yes, Sebastien was born a monster. Canon Questions Q. Does erbody know Scott be a werewolf now? You know, after the fight in the library last week.

A. The traumatized witnesses in the high school that night probably gave police reports that described 'two lacrosse players bravely taking on what appeared to be a giant, rabid bear in the library.' There might be a few kids who look at Scott differently, but most will probably chalk it up to 'It’s Beacon Hills, dude.'" Q. We saw an obvious physical effect of Scott putting his pack back together this season. Was his speedy healing something psychological on his part (like in Season 3a in Angela Harvey’s wonderful Frayed) or are we getting into the whole “Packs make an Alpha stronger” territory? A. "We believe it’s a little bit of both. The loss of healing ability can be psychological. It comes from guilt, as we’ve seen before with both Scott and Derek. But the pack actually makes all of them stronger which is part of theme of our show. That the bonds of friendship can make you both emotionally and physically stronger."
