IMDB reported today that Tom Welling, most well-known for his role as Clark Kent on the CW hit Smallville will be reprising the role of Teen Wolf. The role was originated by Michael Landon in I Was a Teenage Werewolf which was released in 1957. Michael J. Fox starred in the 1985 version: Teen Wolf, and later Jason Bateman took over in Teen Wolf Too.I definitely think that Tom Welling has the 'Teen Wolf' look, but I haven't heard great things about his acting on Smallville. However, I did a little digging, and it turns
out that his parents are originally from Janesville Wisconsin, and his dad worked at the GM plant there. Kind of a weird coincidence. But overall, I think it's a good pick, he's young enough (by which I mean, even though he's actually almost 31, he still looks like a high schooler), and I just hope they do justice to the 1985 movie, which they are reportedly remaking. As of publishing this, there is no official IMDB page for the new version of Teen Wolf.

Shouldn't this actually be Middle Aged Wolf? 31?
Come on Hollywood, you mean there isn't anyone under the age of 25 that could be Teen Wolf? Or is it that everyone under 25 in Hollywood would NEVER be Teen Wolf? That's a lot of questions to be answered.
I'm waiting, Hollywood.
