Teen Wolf cast members say goodbye to their characters

It’s finally time to say goodbye to Teen Wolf. EW was on set for the filming of the show’s last episodes and spoke to some of the cast members about what they’ll miss most and any final thoughts they had about their experience in Beacon Hills. Here’s what they had to say …

Tyler Posey (Scott)

“I love Scott. He’s such a goober; he’s such a sweet kid. I think he’s the greatest. He’s inspired me a lot and motivated me to be a better person and be calmer and more zen about things and take a different approach. I just learned a lot from him. I’m going to miss him a lot. He’s a badass. He’s a cool dude.”

Dylan O’Brien (Stiles)

“I loved everything about [Stiles]. You spend so much time with a character, you do get an attachment, and for me too that was tenfold because it was my first role ever.”

Colton Haynes (Jackson)

“Life has changed so much since I joined the show. The biggest takeaway from being a part of Teen Wolf was: Friends are the family you can choose. I said that in a really sappy text message to Dylan and Hoechlin and Posey. The friends are the family that you can choose.”

Charlie Carver (Ethan)

“What was so fun about Teen Wolf was like the first couple of episodes with my brother, getting to be the bad guys, there was that scene where we beat the crap out of each other on the lockers in the school hallway. Going from that to where we ended up, where he got stabbed by the Oni and the whole sort of last stretch of 3B, was just a blast. I felt like as an actor I just got to try a bunch of different things and work in a bunch of different genres or worlds.”

Holland Roden (Lydia)

“The sass of Lydia is what I’ll miss the most. I’ll miss being a genius and knowing the answer to everything. I’ll miss magically being in perfect hair and makeup while ready to attack a creature at 3 in the morning. I’ll miss the life behind the scenes of Teen Wolf, that’s what I’ll miss the most.”

Melissa Ponzio (Melissa)

“I’ll miss watching the kids grow. When you’re here from day one and you see Tyler and Dylan and Holland and just how they have grown over the last six years, and the amazing human beings that they were then and they are now. Of course, I’m going miss my friendships. And just the world we created. I think one of the best things that Jeff [Davis, the showrunner] ever did was include the parents because it gave validity and longevity made it a deeper, richer story. I thank the fans for embracing the parents and really thinking of us as vital roles to this world.”

Linden Ashby (Stilinski)

“I think my character is that paternal vibe and he’s such a person of integrity and honesty. And he’s a good person and I’ll miss wearing that skin, walking in those shoes.”
