Report: Colton Haynes Is Leaving Teen Wolf

Colton Haynes, who plays Jackson Whittemore on MTV's Teen Wolf, will not return for the show's third season, Us Weekly reports. A source tells the magazine that Haynes is being "forced out" of the show because he was only asked to return for 12 of the 24 episodes of the upcoming season.

Colton Haynes, who plays Jackson Whittemore on MTV's Teen Wolf, will not return for the show's third season, Us Weeklyreports.
A source tells the magazine that Haynes is being "forced out" of the show because he was only asked to return for 12 of the 24 episodes of the upcoming season.

In the finale of the show's second season, which aired in August, Jackson had transitioned into a werewolf. There's no word on how — or even if — his character will be written out.

MTV renews Teen Wolf for third season

An MTV rep said in a statement that there was "absolutely no truth" to the report. "We love Colton and look forward to his returning with the entire cast for season 3 of Teen Wolf."

However, a tweet from the actor himself seems to imply otherwise. "These past few yrs have been the best of my life. I'm sad that this chapter has ended, but excited for a new one to begin. Thx for the love," Haynes wrote on Thursday.

Would you be sad to see Jackson go?
