We love visiting the United Kingdom and we love comic cons, so why not combine the two? In the last weekend of July, we will go to the fifth largest city of England for another event by Monopoly Events. Yes! We are going to Comic Con Manchester and we are so excited! (which is of course an understatement). We have never been to this event before, but we did attend some of Monopoly's other events, like: For the Love of Horror 2018 and Comic Con Liverpool 2020. 

Comic Con Manchester will set up camp in Bowler's Exhibition Centre Manchester in the weekend of July 30-31, 2022 and we cannot wait. In the upcoming weeks, we will tell you everything you need to know about the con, starting with the movie and television guests. Today we will discuss the "Teen Wolf" part of the guest list. With an upcoming revival movie (set to be released this year), fans will finally be able to indulge themselves in the world of Beacon Hills again. I guess you can say that "Teen Wolf" is hotter than ever. Comic Con Manchester will have a whopping total of 4 "Teen Wolf guests and we will tell you everything about them.

The show revolves around Scott McCall (played by Tyler Posey) and his best friend Stiles Stilinski (played by Dylan O'Brien). They live in Beacon Hills and they are both playing in the Lacrosse team, but they are not very good at it. You could say that they are social outcasts, they are not part of the popular crowd. Scott lives with his mother, who is a nurse. Stiles lives with his father, who is the sheriff of Beacon Hills. One night a body is found in the woods, but there is something strange about it. The body is cut in half and one half is missing. Stiles hears about this, because of his dad and convinces Scott to come with him, to search for the other half. At one point Stiles and Scott get separated. When Scott wants to head home, he gets chased by a mysterious monstrous animal. The animal catches up on him and Scott gets bitten. The morning after, when Scott wakes up, he notices that the wound has healed. However, that is not all that changed. Scott is stronger, faster and all of a sudden, he turns out to be a magnificent Lacrosse player. He shows Stiles and together they find out what happened. Scott was bitten by and got turned into a Werewolf.  In the meantime, there is a new girl in Beacon Hills and name is Allison Argent (played by Crystal Reed). Scott immediately falls in love with Allison and they become friends.  Soon Scott finds out that Allison comes out of a family of famous Werewolf Hunters. Her father Chris (J.R. Bourne) is one of the best hunters around. Stiles, on the other hand, has been in love with Lydia for most of his life, but Lydia (Holland Roden) is in a relationship with the aggressive Jackson (Colton Haynes), the star of the Lacrosse team. With Scott's newfound powers, he becomes a threat to Jackson, who now has to share the title with Scott and he does not like that at all. Besides all of this, Scott has to learn how to be a Werewolf, without hurting anyone. To help him control his urges and changes, he needs the help of a mysterious and notorious Werewolf called Derek Hale (Tyler Hoechlin) ...

In 2009 MTV announced a new TV series, loosely based on the 80s movie "Teen Wolf". The premise of the show was going to be the same (teenage bot gets bitten by werewolf and gets superpowers), but according to MTV there was going to be a bigger emphasis on romance, mythology and horror. The creator of the show would be Jeff Davis and he wanted to make the story darker and sexier than the 80s movie. MTV's "Teen Wolf" premiered on June 5, 2011. The show was an instant success and eventually ran for 6 seasons. The finale aired on September 24, 2017. Over the years, "Teen Wolf" built up a strong fanbase and after the last season fans kept asking for more... In 2021, however, the fans got what they wished for: Paramount + ordered a reunion film, which is set to be released later this year...

Our own experience: 

In 2019, Liv had the chance to meet Tyler Posey at Dutch Comic Con. Liv did a photo op with him. Carola & Liv also attended his panel and that was a hoot. He is so energetic and also a really nice guy! 

So, if you are a fan of "Teen Wolf", coming to Manchester and get a chance to meet him ... do it! You certainly won't regret it.

After his graduation he took a degree in Psychology and Business Administration at Fort Lewis College in Durango, Colorado.

Dylan Muse Sprayberry was born on July 7, 1998 in Houston, Texas (US). Dylan is the oldest child of parents Carl and Dana Sprayberry and he has a younger sister named Ellery (also an actress). Dylan had his first role at the age of three in a PBS commercial. In the years that followed he kept on getting and accepting offers for commercials and photoshoots. He attended West University Elementary until 2006, when he and his family moved to Los Angeles, to pursue an acting career for Dylan and his sister. Dylan's parents saw the potential of both of their children and they wanted to give them both the opportunity to pursue their dreams in Hollywood. Young Dylan made his debut at the age of 9 in the short film "The Sunday Man" and soon offers came rolling in. He played guest roles in multiple TV series, like:  "iCarly" (2008, as Matthew), "Criminal Minds" (2008, as Sam Cunningham) and "State of the Union" (2008-2009, as Jesse). 

Tyler Lee Hoechlin was born in Corona, California (US) on September 11th, 1987.

He was the third born child of Don Hoechlin (a doctor) and Lori Hoechlin (a stay-at-home mom and former mountain biker). Tyler has a total of three siblings: an older brother named Travis, an older sister named Carrie and a younger brother named Tanner. The Hoechlin family is a sport loving family and Tyler started playing baseball at the age of 7 and he turned out to be very good at it. Tyler aimed for a career as a professional baseball player. In later interviews he mentioned that he loved playing baseball and that going to practice never felt like an obligation. Tyler had played in some TV commercials when he was a baby and one day when Tyler was 7 or 8 an audition letter for an acting school turned up in the mail.  The audition turned out to be on the same day as an important game, so Tyler chose baseball. When they were on their way to the game in Moreno Valley, the coach called and told them to turn around, because the game had been cancelled because of rainfall, which almost never happens in that area. This turned out to be fate, because with nothing else to do that day Tyler went to the audition and he got in. Six months or so later he also had an agent.

Throughout high school Tyler kept on balancing baseball and acting. When he was 13 years old, he bagged the role of Michael Sullivan Jr. in "Road to Perdition" opposite none other than Tom Hanks. Tyler was chosen out of 2000 candidates. This was the moment he knew he wanted to do this for a living, but after his baseball career, which was his main goal. Tyler played Scout Tournaments and Area Code Games (which feature the best young players of the country for coaches to choose from). Tyler got a scholarship to Arizona State, where he played for a year before he transferred to UC-Irvine. AT one point Tyler even turned down a job interview with Francis Ford Coppola and a role in the "Twilight" movies, because he had to play. In his junior year however, Tyler pulled his hamstring and from that point, he could not play for a 100 percent anymore. Because of this he took on more auditions. At a certain moment, the coach told him he had to make a choice between baseball and acting. Eventually he chose acting, but it was a hard choice. In the years before he had split his time and he did some acting jobs (besides his baseball career) and one of them was the recurring role of Martin Brewer in "7th Heaven" (from 2003 until 2007).
