Although most of the original cast from 'Teen Wolf' appear in the feature film, there are several beloved characters of the pack who couldn't make the cut. Listed below are five important characters from the series who weren't seen in the movie.

'Teen Wolf: The Movie': Who is Crystal Reed's Allison Argent in the Paramount+ movie?
1. Stiles Stilinski
Played by the charming Dylan O'Brien, Mieczysław "Stiles" Stilinski is one of the significant and most beloved characters of the series. He is the best friend of Scott McCall and was the first member of the Teen Wolf Pack. He was by the side of Scott throughout, helping his friend with his werewolf complications. Though a human, he is a strong character whose combination of cleverness and humor made him instantly likable to the audience. Besides, his high intelligence often came in handy while solving crimes. In a recent interview, Dylan revealed that he wasn't comfortable doing the movie at the time. Stiles' absence is one of the biggest misses in the movie.
2. Kira Yukimura
Though she wasn't introduced until season 3, Kira Yukimura quickly became a significant part of 'Teen Wolf'. She was one of the members of the McCall Pack. Kira is a Thunder Kitsune, meaning she has the power to control both foxfire and electricity. Played by Arden Cho, Kira was, however, seen as an introverted person. She is loyal to the pack, and her street smarts and powers often help the pack when in danger. Her combative skills and healing abilities made her even more powerful.
3. Cora Hale
Though this supporting character appeared only in season 3, Cora Hale definitely left a mark on the series. She is Derek Hale's sister, and like her brother, she is also a werewolf. Her family believed she was dead for years, until they reconciled. However, she joined her brother's pack to help the fight against Deucalion and his Alpha Pack. Played by Adelaide Kane, Cora possesses the abilities of a Beta Werewolf.
4. Rafael McCall
Father of Scott McCall and ex-husband of Melissa, Rafael was a recurring character during seasons 3, 4, and 6 of 'Teen Wolf'. An FBI special agent, Ralph has an estranged relationship with his son. When called to Beacon Hills again to investigate the murders and supernatural occurrances, he manages to mend his relationship with his son. The dynamics of their current bond would have added yet another layer to the story.
5. Alec
Played by Benjamin Wadsworth, Alec was introduced during the final episode of the sixth season of the show. Though this was only a brief appearance, he is a person of the future and has the powers of a Beta Werewolf. As a representation of the future of the franchise, it would have been great if the creators infused his presence in the movie, especially as a form of laying the groundwork for the growth and future of Scott McCall's Pack.
'Teen Wolf: The Movie' is now streaming exclusively on Paramount Plus.
