“Teen Wolf”‘s Dylan O’Brien: From Second Banana to Underdog Obsession

AfterElton.com: You’re kind of stealing the show as the fun best friend.
Dylan O’Brien: 
[laughs]

AE: You’ve been a real fan favorite on our site.
DO: 
Wow.

AE: You’re getting a lot of the best lines and having some fun with the role.
DO:
 Yeah, well it’s always been fun, like it’s always been such a fun role. The second I read the pilot script, I automatically fell in love with Stiles. My focus wasn’t supposed to even be on Stiles because I wasn’t supposed to audition for Stiles.

AE: What part did you audition for?
DO:
 I was supposed to audition for Scott but when I read the script, then I asked to go in for Stiles.

Assignment X Interview

On MTV’s TEEN WOLF, Monday nights at 10, the gig is filled by Dylan O’Brien, who plays Stan “Stiles” Stilinsky, who researches all the mythology that comes with the hairy curse afflicting his pal Scott McCall (Tyler Posey).New York native O’Brien, who will be twenty later this month, talks to us about portraying the compadre of a high school lycanthrope.

ASSIGNMENT X: Stiles is kind of a smartass. Had you played this type of character before?

DYLAN O’BRIEN: This was the first role that I got.

AX: What did you do before you were an actor?

O’BRIEN: I went to high school and I made YouTube videos, and that eventually got me into acting unintentionally. [They were] just sketch comedy videos that I would write and make and edit them and put the money in and eventually got enough of a following that somebody noticed me and I started auditioning and I got TEEN WOLF, so there you have it.
