Teen Wolf coming to AXN Beyond

Teen Wolf, only at AXN Beyond

Teen Wolf, a gripping new teen/adult crossover series is coming to our shores.  I still do remember that original Teen Wolf movie in 1985 starring of course, Michael J. Fox.  Where he was at the prime of his career as an actor.  I can still remember the story on how Michael J. Fox came to be Teen Wolf, his secrets and his special skills as a teen werewolf.  But this time he storyline is totally different.

I was given the privilege to get to watch the first episode of Teen Wolf.   And all I can say was "I'm hooked."  I got so involved in the first episode, I was raring to get to watch the second episode, but sad to say I just have to wait it out, til it gets shown in AXN Beyond.
American daily ‘New York Post’ has hailed this TV drama series as “the best new teen/adult crossover series since Buffy the Vampire Slayer”, while US magazine ‘Entertainment Weekly’ praised it for being “good fun, well-written, and well-acted”.  Casting its spotlight on the sexy and furry species, new TV drama series Teen Wolf will take fans from across the region to the wild side with a brand new werewolf-human romance adventure with lots of bite. 
Tyler Posey as Scott McCall
Beginning on Sunday, 17 July at 9pm on AXN Beyond, Teen Wolf will also be simulcast on AXN and Animax in a premiere event. Subsequent episodes broadcast exclusively on AXN Beyond on Mondays at 9pm, which will be the show’s regular broadcast day and time, starting from 18 July.

Crystal Reed as Allison Arg
Teen Wolf showcases new faces with stars such as Tyler Posey (Lincoln Heights, Brothers and Sisters) as Scott McCall, an unnoticed outsider yearning to be recognized in some small way to take him out of his typical state of high school anonymity. When his best friend, Stiles Stilinski (Dylan O’Brien, High Road), convinces him to go into the woods one night to join a police search for a dead body, Scott encounters a creature in the darkness. Narrowly surviving its attack with a vicious bite to his side, Scott awakes the next day to strange surprises and his life is never the same again.

Acquiring superhuman wolf-like abilities, Scott now hears things he should not be able to hear, sees with startling accuracy, and moves with incredible reflexes. Sparking the interest of Lydia Martin (Holland Roden, Lost) the most popular girl in school, Scott falls instead for Allison Argent, the mysterious new girl in town played by Crystal Reed (Skyline).


With a forbidden romance set against the drama of high school life, Teen Wolf follows a dark, riveting plot and delves into themes of self-discovery, struggles and angst among its teenage characters coming into their own. Topped by an attractive, young and fresh-faced cast line-up, Teen Wolf has all the makings of the next big TV series in the massively popular supernatural action-romance genre.

Directed by Australian director Russell Mulcahy (Highlander) and executive produced by Jeff Davis, creator of the , the TV series is proving to be a ratings hit on cable television in the US.  With all the ingredients of a hit show coming together in a fresh and sexy thriller of the supernatural kind, viewers can expect a wild and exciting good time with Teen Wolf, howling this July only on AXN Beyond.
Also we got Solenn Heussaff as the official "Wolfmate" ambassador for AXN Beyond and Teen Wolf.  She’s in huge fashion spreads, on billboards and is gracing some of the biggest events in town.

Solenn Heussaff is unleashing her charms, talents and even her wild side from July on cable television channel AXN Beyond!
