With production underway in Atlanta on Teen Wolf’s second season, the returning original cast is being joined by four new recurring characters who sound like a whole bundle of bad for our resident lycanthrope, Scott (Tyler Posey). First is Battlestar Galactica’s Michael Hogan, who will appear as Allison’s grandfather, a lethal werewolf hunter with plans to draw her into the family business. Stephen Lunsford (Private Practice’s Dink) will pop up as a Beacon Hills High student with a knack for photography and an eye for Scott’s girl, and Daniel Sharman, who previously tackled otherworldly roles in The Immortals and The Nine Lives of Chloe King, will play a lacrosse teammate of Scott’s, and Alpha Derek’s dangerous new pet project.
The fourth role is a still-to-be-cast mystery lady
Get more info about the new characters from TV Guide, E!Online (scroll to the end) and Zap2It.

Check out the new shoot Tyler did with DA MAN, photographed by Mitchell McCormack, as well as their interview below, where he talks about his career in general.
DA MAN: You’ve been in showbiz with dozens of parts since you were quite young. How was your childhood?
I couldn’t have asked for anything more of my childhood. I got to play with my G.I. Joe toys and video games while I was working with J.Lo [Jennifer Lopez in the 2002 film Maid in Manhattan] and Arnold [Schwarzenegger on the 2002 film Collateral Damage]. It was awesome!DA MAN: Being that Teen Wolf has been your first main, lead role, do you feel it’s your big breakout?
Yeah it’s definitely my breakout role. I never had a room full of girls screaming my name until teen wolf came out.DA MAN: Where do you hope to go from here, career-wise?
I want to continue making great TV and film projects. I hope to produce someday, too. It would also be cool to tour with my band.DA MAN: In terms of your social life, have things changed for you since the show has gained so much popularity
My friends and family all treat me the same. The only difference is now I get recognized in public.DA MAN: How about issues with the paparazzi?
That isn’t really an issue for me. It is one of those things I can’t avoid, so instead of thinking of it as an issue, I embrace it.

The cast of Teen Wolf may have had some time away from filming on set, but surely they kept busy. In case you’re thirsty to know what they were up to, we’ve got your answer in brand new video from Tyler Posey, Holland Roden and Dylan O’Brien!
According to The Thirst Project, “Almost 1 billion people on our planet don’t have access to safe, clean drinking water and proper sanitization. That’s one in every eight of us.” So, when fellow cast member JR Bourne approached the cast about funding a water well in Uganda, Tyler, Dylan, Holland and company jumped on the opportunity.
“I liked [the idea of funding a water well] because I didn’t know 1 in 8 don’t have clean water all around the world,” said the lovely Holland Rodden. “We have not only good water, we have great water! And a lot of times we find ourselves drinking bottled water on top of that.”
“I love water,” Tyler so eloquently added. See what else the cast had to say before breaking into dance:
