We speak to Chris Brewster, second unit director of TeenWolfTheMovie and WolfPack, about designing the stunts and fight scenes for both projects:
Stunt professional Chris Brewster has had quite a career in stunt work and fight choreography, with an unusually high number of wolf-related credits to his name. Previously working as a stunt man and coordinator on MTV's series Teen Wolf, Brewster would return as the second unit director for 2023's Teen Wolf: The Movie, which is now streaming on Paramount+.
Not only did they bring back the majority of the cast for the show, but they brought back the majority of the entire crew. It was like a giant family reunion, which was pretty incredible. After doing the TV show, I’d actually worked with a bunch of the producers on several other projects, so when we made the feature film, it’s kind of a perfect little, well-rounded symmetry.
In the case of both Teen Wolf and Wolf Pack, we had very, very, very little prep, so we had to go a different path when it comes to all of the action design. Normally, we create within the stunt team first and bring the actors in, and kind of teach them the choreography and they have time to kind of let it marinate and sink into their heads, and they normally have plenty of time to take that choreography and kind of add the body to the skeleton.
I feel like with experience, you get a certain level of performance, you’re able to stack punches wherever the camera is, and you almost build up a sixth sense for where that camera is. So, as you’re moving throughout an action sequence, you know right where to put everything, you know exactly how to sell each reaction. He was always really, really good at action, and he’s even better now.
In coming back to the Teen Wolf world, how would you say your approach or the general approach to stunts and fights and action on the show has evolved from Teen Wolf to Teen Wolf: The Movie and Wolf Pack?
