Wolves was first announced back in 2010, and seemed to drop off the radar afterwards. But it seems David Hayter (Aka the voice of Solid Snake) has been keeping on top of the movie, as last week Lucas Till (Havok in X-Men: First Class) won the lead role, and now he’s being joined by Jason Momoa ( Khal Drogo in Game Of Thrones) and newcomer Merritt Patterson.



Hayter is set to direct Wolves from his own script, and the story is said to focus an eighteen-year-old werewolf (Till) accused of murdering his own parents, who goes on the run and winds up in a small town named Lupine Ridge (yes, really) that has a history of supernatural happenings. Momoa will play the villain, a “badass werewolf patriarch.” Patterson’s role has not been revealed yet.

We haven't had a really good Werewolf movie since..umm, Am American Werewolf In London? There has to have been one since that - answers on a postcard. Anyway, point is, we are long overdue for one. Will this be it? Honestly I doubt it, but we can hope! Wolves will shoot in Toronto this fall.

@TheCharlesJBryant

He will always be Ronon Dex to me.
Screwger - 8/24/2012, 4:35 PM
And actually we had a good werewolf movie since USA Werewolf in London it's called DOG SOLDIERS directed by Neil MarshalL!
whoelsebutkevin - 8/24/2012, 4:36 PM
Finally a Bodybuilder type body guy who can ACTUALLY act. Loved him in Game of Thrones and I can see him being a badass werewolf as well. Bring it onnnn.
RorMachine - 8/24/2012, 4:39 PM
Ahh yes, Dog Soldiers was decent, well, it got a bit ridiculous in the end. Ginger Snaps was ok too, but I mean a REALLY good one.
AlexDeLarge87 - 8/24/2012, 4:57 PM
If its gonna have alot of action like the plot imply then i think its probably not gonna be so good. Good Werewolf movie focuses on the horror. Like AWIL and The Howling did. Hope they have at least good Werewolf make-ups if nothing else.

We need a good dramatic Werewolf story. I had a idea about three brothers who havent seen each other in a long time go and hunting in the wilderness of Alaska and in their Uncle´s cabin they himself become hunted by punch of blood thirsty werewolves.
SHO1138 - 8/24/2012, 5:00 PM
I've always thought the 80's TV show Werewolf wold make a good movie.

But yeah we do need a good werewolf movie sometime soon.
AlexDeLarge87 - 8/24/2012, 5:01 PM
They should make the Werewolves look like that one in Cabin in the Woods. Hope i didnt spoil the movie for anyone.
DEATHbyEXILE - 8/24/2012, 5:02 PM
AlexDeLarge87 - 8/24/2012, 5:03 PM
Werewolf TV-series would totally make a great film.
Screwger - 8/24/2012, 5:05 PM
@RorMachine Amirican Werewolf was ridiculous at all but it still great. Dog Doldiers is REALLY GOOD one.
SHO1138 - 8/24/2012, 5:05 PM
^What the hell is that?
Screwger - 8/24/2012, 5:09 PM
@AlexDeLarge87 I have an awesome synopsis in 3 pages about werewolfs but problem is that we are not in business and nobody will read it.
DEATHbyEXILE - 8/24/2012, 5:10 PM
AlexDeLarge87 - 8/24/2012, 5:10 PM
Awesome line from Dog Soldier.
"Did you try to lick your own balls yet Ryan?"
"Oh sorry... I forgot... You dont have them." ;)
AlexDeLarge87 - 8/24/2012, 5:11 PM
Screwger@ Sadly!... Thats true!;)
AlexDeLarge87 - 8/24/2012, 5:14 PM
DEATHbyEXILE@ LMAO!
Screwger - 8/24/2012, 5:18 PM
@Alex yeah that sad but we can do comics on them. If we screwed up it we always can change it. And if comics is bad, as I say "per can take anything " . And yeah that liners from Dog Soldiers is awesome. Do you remember that story about tattoo ?
StormLoganSummers - 8/24/2012, 5:23 PM
I like Lucas Till.
sKeemAn - 8/24/2012, 5:28 PM
@deathbyexile Dude that shit is [frick]in hilarious
DEATHbyEXILE - 8/24/2012, 5:39 PM
@sKeemAn and AlexDeLarge87 glad you guys enjoyed it. whenever i think of werewolves i think of that song :P
DioFoRio - 8/24/2012, 5:56 PM
there really hasn't been a good vampire movie in ages as well. Problem with both werewolves(my fave)and vampire flicks is that they are painted as superheroes. They need to be portrayed as monsters again. And they have to stop showing the monster full on so early and so clearly.

Oh Let the right one in and it's american counterpart were the best Vamp flicks in ages.

Trick or treat has a decent werewolf story as well. But American Werewolf in London takes the cake as the best.

Trivia: Jenny Agutter (An American Werewolf in London) was one of the World Security Councils in The Avengers
RoninDJC - 8/24/2012, 6:50 PM
No, the last good werewolf movies were ginger snaps and dog soldiers, with trick r treat making a strong showing.
ManicCynic - 8/24/2012, 7:15 PM
@RoninDJC - Completely agree.
patriautism - 8/24/2012, 7:22 PM
If Solid Snake wrote it, it has to be good.
DrainBamage - 8/24/2012, 8:13 PM
Okay, I had to look Hayter up to see what the hell he's done other than voice work. I'm pleasantly surprised to see that he's got some screenplay credit on the first two X-Men films and at one point was writing a Black Widow film.

So, I'll hold off on my 'who in the blue hell would let this guy direct a movie?' until I see how his talents at directing actually pan out.
Bandrews1 - 8/24/2012, 9:09 PM
Sounds interesting, it's about time we had another really good werewolf movie. I wouldn't mind seeing in the vein of Let the Right One In.
Gulon180 - 8/24/2012, 9:44 PM
was "WOLF" with Jack Nicholson not a good werewolf movie???
thepurplepiledriver - 8/24/2012, 10:03 PM
Wolf was good, but the best werewolf movie in my opinion is the original Howling. This sounds like that shitty movie Skinwalkers from a few years ago.
thewolfx - 8/24/2012, 10:56 PM
wow i love this guy


he played my favorite superhero (guyver)

hes the voice of my favorite spy (solid snake)

now hes making a movie about my favorite monster (werewolves)


bless you mr hayter ^_^
AlexDeLarge87 - 8/25/2012, 5:07 AM
Screwger@ True about that. And yeah the tattoo story was great too. But that line is to me most memorable in the movie. I mean what else would you say to 7 foot tall Werewolf who is about to eat you any second. ;)

tea@ In Werewolf in Paris the Werewolves were more like Werehedgehogs. ;)
That list pretty much contains all of the best Werewolf films. Only Wolfen wasnt really a Werewolf movie.
but basically it belongs in that gategory cause it had punch of super smart Wolves.
The Company of Wolves was creepy film back in the day. Great masterpiece from the hands Neil Jordan.
AlexDeLarge87 - 8/25/2012, 5:11 AM
Monster Squad is just pure classic!;)

This is what i will do if i never face a Werewolf.
worldbreaker - 8/25/2012, 10:43 AM
monster squad! timeless classic!


why is david hayter not live-action solid snake already? that needs to happen like yesterday
GUNSMITH - 8/25/2012, 4:44 PM
THIS IS SKIN WALKERS ALL OVER AGAIN....LUPINE RIDGE? WOW MAN...WOW.
GUNSMITH - 8/25/2012, 4:50 PM
AFTER SO MANY YEARS AMERICAN WEREWOLF IN LONDON IS STILL THE-BEST WEREWOLF FILM EVER MADE...



AND NOW SOME COMEDY CAPTIONING..

"ALL THIS STRETCHING AND TRANSFORMING AND MY WIENER HASN'T CHANGED!"
preacher - 8/26/2012, 4:28 PM
@tea-while I agree with ya about most of the films on your list, have to disagree with ya about wolfen. Not really about werewolves at all, even the book (which is SOOOO much better, scarier and more visceral than the film ever THOUGHT about being) was about wolfish humanoids, there was no shape-shifting involved in either one. In my opinion, that is what makes a werewolf...a werewolf. Gotta have the shape-shifting.

All time BEST werewolf movie? The Howling! my opinion.
All time BEST werewolves in films? The Howling, American Werewolf in London, Trick r Treat, Bad Moon, Monster Squad (although that werewolf didn't have much for facial expressions and when he turned, the head turned with the body, neck didn't move) still, a great design!
preacher - 8/26/2012, 4:28 PM
Oh, and Mamoa COULD make a great werewolf! Definitely has the look for it!
