Where will they go from here?

Honestly the only actors i see going somewhere is dylan O and shelley. The other actors arent even working on anything as it appears. Dylan O is constantly busy and shelley has steady work. Melissa is also on Chicago Fire so shell prob go full time to that.
Crystal has been off thé show for how long..and she only appears to have one upcoming project this year where Arden had lined up work (i think leaving TW was a big mistske on crystals part)
Maybe the other actors dont wanna do anything till TW is officially done.
I uno..or perhaps in Posey's case he may be too busy with directing TW as well (if hes even still directing..if not then i uno) lol
What do u think will happen to them?

Dylan has clearly moved on already, and his talent has well surpassed the show anyways.

Ian Bohen just signed on for some movie. I can't remember the name, but Shelley and him were teasing each other on Twitter about it.

As for the other actors, I honestly don't know. I personally don't think Posey is that marketable. He seems nice and all, but he's all over the place personality wise. Not to mention, he also has that nose piercing and a lot of tattoos. If he gets hired to be in a movie or show, most likely those tats will have to be covered up, and that can mean hours in a chair at this point, depending on the scene. Honestly, his shirtless scenes have declined in recent seasons because he has several tattoos on both arms and legs now. I don't have anything against tattoos, but from a hiring aspect, someone is going to be less likely to hire him because of it. It costs more money to cover that stuff up, and again, time. He was always pushed to the back burner in his own show and wasn't allowed to showcase his talents, which I think will also really hurt him.

Shelley and Holland are both like 30 years old now. Being in the same show for six seasons has probably hurt their career a bit in that regard. I like them both, and I think they do have a shot of moving on. Shelley was in The Secret Circle, which was on CW, so she could end up working on there again. I feel like a lot of the actors could get picked up for CW shows since some already have like Daniel Sharman, Adelaide Kane, Colton Haynes, and Tyler Hoechlin. Their screen time all varied depending on the show, but I do feel like any of the actors currently on there could end up getting other shows because the CW seems so keen on hiring them. Oh, and Marisol who played Malia's mom is also in the new show Riverdale.

At this point, I think the most marketable person will be Sprayberry. He's rather young, but he was also in Man of Steel, so he can be in movies or TV. Personally I would love to see any of the actors in other stuff, but it just depends on other factors.

Also, no offense to Crystal Reed because I actually like her, but in some of her more recent photos, she actually looks like she had work done to her face. It could be why she hasn't been in much of anything.

I think Sprayberry's hight will lose him a lot of jobs.

[–] antinea-from-paris 8 years ago

The only one who can have a great career is DOB.

Hoechlin has the looks but for some reason his career doesn't seem to go anywhere. He works but could get more, it's not like is worse than thousands of hollywood actors with bigger success.

Haynes doesn't seem interested in acting and scores second roles here and there to pay his holidays.

The older cast, Bourne, Bohen, Ashby will keep working as they did before TW.

Crystal's career is dead.

Posey won't work much as an actor after TW even if he was the lead.

For the others, I don't know. They'll keep looking pretty in other teen shows I guess.

[–] aryadne 8 years ago

from all of them, Hoechlin is the one with most work, isn't he? Although he's yet to land a lead role so comparing with DOB i'd say they're even. And Hoechlin will be in both shades of grey upcoming movies. that's a big audience right there.

as for DOB, does anyone have any information about what he'll do after death cure? I can't find anything out there! is there anything regarding future movies, any rumour?

Who needs a signature?!

[–] antinea-from-paris 8 years ago

Hoechlin works but Superman was a disappointment. He was very good in it but only two episodes look like a wasted opportunity.

He does indie movies and a cameo in FSG but he could work much more I think.

I thought he was an horrible actor in the first season of Teen Wolf, pretty but truly terrible. But he has improved very much and is a decent actor now.

I just hope The Domestic can open him more doors cause the director is talented.

As for Dylan, I don't worry for him. He gonna have a good career even if we don't have news for the time being.

[–] coljjr 8 years ago

Depends on how well American Assassin does. If it does well critically and box office then he's got a franchise with a future and movie roles flowing in. If it does mediocre or badly then they probably won't do more films and with that combined with how well Maze Runner is received, it'll determine whether Hollywood considers him marketable with a future or a passed fad with TW gone.

[–] Susanne34 8 years ago

I don't know if Sprayberry is really marketable. He was in Man of Steel but that doesn't mean much. And let's be real Sprayberry is not a good actor. Even among the TW cast he is barely average.

He seems to push his "cool" image a lot with all those photoshoots (some of them are really weird) and his punk attitude on social media. Not sure if that will help him with getting roles.

I'd rather see other TW actors that are more talented than him in more projects. But as you said it often depends on other factors and if you don't have a good agent or management you often don't stand a chance against other less talented actors who have a good agent/management.

Ya I think Jeff really had to keep Posey in line..like personality wise in an interview he was gonna jump a table and Jeff grabbed his sleeve and shook his head..not many directors would want to babysit their actors..he has a lot of growing up to do..i almost feel he has ADHD just from watching him in interviews etc..

[–] aryadne 8 years ago

wait, is that true? jeff grabing posey to stop him from jumping on a table.

well...that's just...that's not ADHD, that's craziness mixed with immaturity. i've delt with ADHD kids and that's not something they would do.

Who needs a signature?!

[–] mrumble-704-31166 8 years ago

Ya i saw it on a video taken at comic con..Posey said " I like to try my own stunts and do stuff ppl ask me to do..like if someone told me to jump this table..i would..do you want me to?" (Can't remember word for word but it was something like that) Then he was going to and Jeff stopped him.

[–] aryadne 8 years ago

then he's basically an obedient puppy? :)

yeah, i've seen a bunch of TW comic cons and he's always over the top. like the flashdance enacting. oh boy... 😒

[–] angelsblood-85377 8 years ago

I dont know about the jumping.
But my impression, from interviews and postings: Yes Posey had ADHD, but his hyperactivity is not only based on ADHD, I knew other ADHD kids, and their are not like this. I think he is more like a playful child, not a grown adult. Also he wants attention no matter what the price is. He is also an exhibitionist, but I think every actor must be at least a little bit. And he acts and speeks before he thinks, or thinks not at all, how could I say it political correct?! Like posting he is gay and then says it was only a joke, or he had looked how his butt hole looks like and think it looks great an so on. What I said he wants attention, but dont thinks about stuff what he do, and I think at this age, you should can reflect your self, how something have an effect, looks for others.
So my impression he is a good guy, but it can be very exhausting around him, but about Jeff its the same, about exhausting, but with other reasons.

I seriously hope most of the cast does find future success....I do agree to some extent that I'm curious if Posey and Sprayberry at least find more work, cause as someone pointed out Sprayberry does seem more into his "punk" image, to the point it doesn't seem like acting has become a big priority for him anymore....and Posey I feel like could become the host of some reality show or something, but it seems like he maybe done with acting for the time being....and despite for some say I really think Cody would be great in his own tv series...

we will just have to see, but I do wish them all luck after the show is over!

[–] aryadne 8 years ago

yeah, the people (children only actually) that i know who have ADHD weren't like that at all.

i think it's like you said. he's just an immature guy, who's nearly 26 years old but acts like a 13 year old. it's like he hasn't matured at all since TW started.

and those example phrases? that's an exageration that i doubt anyone would ever say. not even posey. :)

[–] creolegurl81 8 years ago

I don't know how DOB will fare but of course he has the most upswing of the cast. What helps him is that not only the directors/actors he's worked with so far like him, but also the producers i.e. the ones who actually get projects off the ground like him. The only point against his favor is his visibility. He needs to be seen more. His work schedule has prevented him from attending events in the past so I hope he can start having more of a presence for future ones.

Shelley should land a role in some kind of doctor/lawyer procedural. She'll be alright.

I think Sprays had talent but his height is a huge drawback.

Hoechlin will get cast in things as long as his looks hold up. He's just never going to be great. His line reading is atrocious.

Until Posey figures out what exactly he wants to do and stop jumping around from thing to thing, he'll never be successful. He might want to stick with directing because acting and music is not going to happen for him.

All the others (Holland, Crystal)...I don't see a future for them in acting anymore.

[–] Tjb9190 8 years ago

I keep forgetting that Posey could continue on to become a director/producer, but we just have to wait and see if he will show up anywhere else....It's probably gonna take a while for him to grow out of the Teen Wolf stigma he's been in for 6-7 years already....as well as some of the other cast members.

Dylan O'Brien is a great actor, the best actor on the show, and he is very attractive. He's mega cute. He will have a great career in movies. Did I mention that he is mega cute? Well, he is.

Tyler Posey isn't a great actor, but he's cute, has a really good personality, and a live wire manner that could take him far. And he wants to direct more tv and maybe movies as well.

Shelly is a good actress, and so is Holland. They should find good acting jobs on tv.

Tyler Hoechlin is not a great actor, but his good looks will get him roles on tv and in movies.

And my sweet Colton Haynes. I really like him. He is also not a great actor, but his good looks will also get him roles in Hollywood.

Dylan Sprayberry has his youthful cuteness. But he's not a great actor either. Maybe he will do ok.

Ryan Kelley is not a great actor. But he is very cute and sexy. He will get cute guy roles.

Linden Ashby and Ian Bohen are both very good actors, and should get a lot of great character roles.

Melissa Ponzio is a very good actress, and she will do well.

J.R.Bourne is a good actor, and hotter than a firecracker. He will do well.

And as for Cody Christian. He's not a great actor. But the guy is gorgeous. And sexy. His cuteness will win him cute guy roles.

And now we come to Mason, Corey, and Haywagon. Oh, dear. No comment.

(Pay no attention to the man behind the curtain.)

[–] mrumble-704-31166 8 years ago

That sad thing is..that's true..u can act as good as a squirrel but as long as your attractive you will get good roles.
