The team behind Teen Wolf have dropped a bombshell about how the show will end, two days before the finale airs in the US.

This coming Sunday (September 10) is both Teen Wolf's 100th and last instalment (in the show's current incarnation), and it will begin with a look into the future.

Entertainment Weekly has published the first page of 'The Wolves of War', revealing that it opens with a flash-forward to an unspecified time where an older Scott McCall (Tyler Posey) and Argent are trekking through smog-covered Los Angeles on some kind of mission.

"I'm going to tell you a story. Maybe it'll sound familiar," Scott narrates over footage of this future incarnation zooming down the Los Angeles streets on a motorcycle.

He continues: "There was this kid. Sixteen, alone, and running for his life. He couldn't see them, but he could hear them getting closer. They had guns crossbows. They were hunting him."

This opening concludes with a crossbow firing at a young boy running through a darkened alley, sending him scurrying. If you're curious about what happens next, you'll have to tune in for the finale.

In terms of the franchise's future, MTV already announced this summer that it wants to eventually reboot Teen Wolf as a podcast to introduce new characters for a spin-off TV series.

Comparing MTV's podcast vision to the hit Serial, network president Chris McCarthy said: "The heart of MTV is around these timeless issues of young people and coming of age, but the timely piece will be the whole new cast, new set of issues and stories to explore through them.

"With Teen Wolf, we have such a beautiful gem. And when you have a creator like Jeff [Davis] that is such an amazing partner and the fan base that is hungry for more, we're crazy not to."

Teen Wolf concludes (for now) in the US on Sunday at 8pm ET on MTV.
