Considering the steamy half-naked scenes they shared together in the entire fourth season run of "Teen Wolf," Derek and Braeden's pairing is undeniably the sexiest in the show. But now that the hit MTV supernatural series is in hiatus, can Derek and Breaden shippers expect more romance between the two in Season 5?
If the Desert Wolf storyline would be the basis, then it is highly possible that Meagan Tandy will reprise her role as Braeden, but this does not necessarily mean that she would share more screen time with her onscreen partner Tyler Hoechlin.
When series' executive producer Russell Mulcahy was asked by TVLine if Braeden's top mission next season would be to find the Desert Wolf, he answered, "It could be," noting that they haven't done too much planning for the fifth season.
But according to series' showrunner Jeff Davis, the Desert Wolf storyline is indeed one of the main things they will to explore in Season 5.
"We're definitely going to be working on that storyline next season," he told Entertainment Weekly. Davis also said that he would love Tandy to return, and that was the reasonhe tied her into the whole desert wolf mystery.
"I love Meagan Tandy so much; she's such an awesome girl. I think she's really stepped up this season," he added. "It was great to have an actor who was there really just to show up for one episode in 301 and to have her come back and become a much bigger role. She did nine episodes out of 12 this season, and that's a testament to an actor who, they bring it on the day and you just want to write more for them."
Meanwhile, Hoechlin apparently wants to see the romance go forward next season.
"Derek might have finally found a relationship that's good for him," the hunky 26-year-old actor said at recent episode of "Teen Wolf After After Show" via MTV News, adding that the badass mercenary Braeden could prove to be exactly what werewolf needs. "I'm proud of him for making that adjustment...I'm hoping this time he's got it figured out."
"Everything goes wrong for Derek, so let's just hope for once that this is OK," he added.
On the other hand, Tandy previously revealed in an episode of "Teen Wolf After After Show" that the kissing scene between her and Hoechlin was "great."
"God bless America, it was great!" Tandy said of the hot scene, according to MTV News. "He's got this nice little beard thing going on, which was constantly scratching me, but aside from that, it was great."
If this is any indication, then it is safe to assume that the 29-year-old actress also hopes to see more of Braeden and Derek romance next season.
Last July, MTV renewed "Teen Wolf" for a 20-episode fifth season which, like the third season, will be split into two parts.
