See the Dread Doctors take on Scott McCall in the new Teen Wolf opening title sequence for season 5.
As per tradition, we mark the beginning of every Teen Wolf season with a new title sequence. Today EW officially ushered in season 5 by revealing the new opening credits.
Like the show itself, the credits get a tonal change at the beginning of every year. There’s the addition or removal of character cards, a new overall color scheme, and clues that weave in and out to signal what’s to come.
This year the biggest addition is easily the Dread Doctors. We know an interesting amount about these new threats already, including the fact that they’ll be sticking around long enough to “evolve.”
We see several different doctors flash in and out and there is one moment when they seem to be dragging someone away (Lydia?). The steampunk inspired monsters even have our very own True Alpha strapped down to a table at one point.
What other changes are there?
As we expected, now that Tyler Hoechlin has officially left the show as a series regular, Derek’s title card has been removed (Dabs eyes). On the bright side, Dylan Sprayberry is officially marked as a part of the pack as he joins the credit sequence for the first time. It may be important to note that we see him shift from werewolf into boy as well.
Scott and Kira also get a tender moment in season 5A’s opening sequence. The kiss between the two almost acts as a sad but powerful reminder that yes, even star-crossed lovers like Scott and Allison can find love again.
Teen Wolf season 5, episode 1, “Creatures of the Night,” airs Monday, June 29, at 10 p.m. ET on MTV. Episode 2, “Parasomnia,” airs one day later on Tuesday, June 30, at 9 p.m.
