Tyler Posey’s break out summer continued with full gusto. MTV quickly renewed his fantasy drama Teen Wolf due to the show becoming the cable outlet’s highest-rated new series in two years in the 12-34 demographic in its first seven episodes.

Posey’s career ascent continued with Variety reporting on his landing a lead role in the upcoming indie film White Frog.

Posey signed on to play a high school senior who befriends a freshman with Asperger’s Syndrome.

Fabienne Wen and Ellie Wen co-wrote the script and Quentin Lee came aboard the project as its director.

Earlier, B.D. Wong, Joan Chen, Harry Shum Jr., and Gregg Sulkin joined the cast.

Posey previously played supporting roles in the films Maid in Manhattan, Collateral Damage and Men of Honor. Posey also appeared in the TV series Doc, Brothers & Sisters, Lincoln Heights and Smallville.

In terms of a big-screen project, White Frog will be the Teen Wolf star’s first leading role.
