Heroes come in all shapes, sizes and races… including human, supernatural and alien. Just ask Dylan Sprayberry. His first major break involved portraying a Kryptonian – a young Clark Kent – in the film Man Of Steel. But the Texas native is best known as the brooding werewolf Liam on MTV’s Teen Wolf. The TV series concluded its six-season run in 2017, but Sprayberry recently reprised his role for Teen Wolf: The Movie. SFX caught up with him to chat about connecting with audiences, slasher films and superheroes.
Liam proved to be a fan-favourite character. How did it feel to receive that kind of recognition and adoration from the audience?
It feels extra special. We obviously have things that aren’t similar, but there is a lot of me in Liam that is very similar. In a small way, it’s like I am being appreciated for being close to who I really am. A lot of the emotion and characteristics of Liam are personal to me because they come from me meshing with the character. It feels nice that a lot of people resonated with the arc of Liam’s struggle and growth throughout the seasons.
Liam shared a bromance with Theo, but Cody Christian’s schedule for All American didn’t allow him to participate in the movie. Did you miss that dynamic, as well as Cody himself?
