Teen Wolf is gearing up for post production of of Season 6a, leaving fans to speculate just how the season is going to go with Dylan O’Brien’s injuries, the set back of the release date, and some interesting behind the scene photos that have stirred some interesting rumors. In this piece we are going to break down the rumor mill surrounding Season 6, along with some actual truths behind some of them. 

Rumor #1 Dylan O’Brien leaving Teen Wolf (False)

Dylan O’Brien has been the hot topic of Season 6 after injuries he sustained while filming Maze Runner: Death Cure. The true nature of his injuries have yet to be released, but fans are definitely worried for the 24 year old actor, who portrays the cleverly sarcastic human, Stiles Stilinski. Well wishes flooded social media along with some very interesting rumors that began to cause a fandom frenzy.

One rumor stated that Dylan O’Brien would be leaving Teen Wolf, due to his injuries, but the rumor did not stop there. One website claimed that Dylan O’Brien would be replaced by Harry Styles (former One Direction member) for the role of Stiles Stilinski. Just as ridiculous as the second part to the rumor sounds, we can safely say that Harry Styles will not be joining the cast nor will he be taking over the role of Stiles Stilinski.

As for the rumor about Dylan O’Bren leaving Teen Wolf, we can say that Dylan will be back to show as Stiles. Dylan had begun filming Season 6 before his injuries and Jeff Davis worked out a deal with James Dashner, on a filming schedule, once Dylan has recovered and is cleared to work. Not to mention a casting call list for a double for Stiles Stilinski, that fits a perfect description of Dylan O’Brien.

Rumor #2: Cody Christenson will be reprising his role as Theo Raeken (True)

A behind the scene photo was placed on social media by Melissa Pozio (portray Mellissa McCall). In the photo you can see the cast members vacant chairs. Looking closely you can make out Victoria Morales (Hayden Romero), Khylin Rhambo (Mason Hewitt), Tyler Posey (Scott McCall), Dylan Sprayberry (Liam Dunbar) and Cody Christian (Theo Raeken). Either Theo made his way out of hell or there will be some flashback scene, but knowing Teen Wolf they may throw a curve ball.

Rumor #3: Jeff Davis is backing down from Teen Wolf (True)

This rumor is true.  Jeff Davis has placed Season 6 into the hands of Lindsay Sturman, an executive writer of Teen Wolf. Lindsay Sturman wrote episode 15 of Season 5, “Amplification.” Her works include writing for SYFY’s ‘Odyssey’ and CW’s ‘Cult.’ We wonder just how she is going to do with a 20 episode Season 6 and just how hands off Jeff Davis will be this coming season.
