Teen Wolf star Michael J. Fox has reflected on the film’s modern fandom. The original film, which stars Fox as a young man whose newfound werewolfism helps him become a basketball star at his high school, debuted the same year as the star’s breakout role in Back to the Future and in some territories was even retitled as Boy from the Future. It earned $30 million off a $4 million budget, spawning a two-season animated series in 1986 and a sequel starring Jason Bateman in 1987 before going dormant until MTV's darker, more serious Teen Wolf reboot premiered in 2011.
