'Wolf Pack', Starring Sarah Michelle Gellar, Canceled After One Season
The howl is over and the fires are quenched. Breaking a day short of the anniversary of the series premiere, Paramount+ has cancelled Wolf Pack aftera single season. The series, based on Edo van Belkom’s 2004 novel starred Armani Jackson as Everett Lang, Bella Shepard as Blake Navarro, Chloe Rose Robertson as Luna Briggs, Tyler Lawrence Gray as Harlan Briggs, Rodrigo Santoro as Garrett Briggs and Sarah Michelle as well Gellar as Kristin Ramsey.
We at What’s On Paramount+ got word of the cancellation from Paul V. Rea at Teen Wolf News, who reported it on Tuesday and KP tweeted it out early Wednesday morning, but where it was from wasn’t disclosed to other staff. It landed in the Twitter timeline after this started being written. The series premise goes as such: The lives of teens Everett and Blake are forever changed when a California wildfire awakens a terrifying supernatural predator. Following an injury sustained in the chaos, they are drawn to each other and fraternal twins Harlan and Luna, adopted 16 years earlier by a park ranger following another mysterious wildfire. On the full moon, they come together to reveal the secret of bite and blood of a werewolf.
The reason for the cancellation is being pinned on the actor and writers’ strikes of last summer and fall, which means if the studios were more willing to work with their talent on agreeing to a fair deal, they’re cancelling shows for the production delays of their own doing, claiming that the second season they were quietly renewed for in November would not have been ready to air until next January, despite spaced seasons having become unfortunately common in the streaming era. Production was slated to begin in February. However, what most certainly is the reasoning behind it is Paramount is currently on the market, talks of Skydance gaining steam on their offer. This leaves Paramount+ continuing to cut costs, and undergo mass layoffs. Bob Bakish’s memo Thursday said the layoffs are “to operate as a leaner company and spend less” as they, including the programming teams’re bracing for more, thought to be in the hundreds.
Deep in the dark, you'll surrender your heart. But you know that you can't fight the moonlight. Touted as a Teen Wolfspinoff, it was not one, though they share Jeff Davis as creator and showrunner, and a few of the actors (but not characters), including Gideon Emery and Rio Mangini. Davis and Gellar executive produce with Joseph P. Genier, Karen Gorodetzky, Christian Taylor, Mike Elliott, Jason Ensler and Sean Crouch.
