‘Teen Wolf’ Star Dylan O’Brien Wins Lead in ‘The Maze Runner’

He’s undoubtedly the break-out star of MTV fantasy-drama ‘Teen Wolf’, and now Dylan O’Brien has landed a coveted lead role in 20th Century Fox’s The Maze Runner.

The film is the studio’s answer to a ‘Hunger Games’-esque teen thriller, and focuses on a group of teenagers who wakes up in the middle of a maze with no memory of how or why they got there. O’Brien will portray the central character.

Adapted from a trilogy of books by James Dashner, ‘The Maze Runner’ will be directed by Wes Ball from a script by Noah Oppenheim. It’ll hit theaters on February 14th 2014.
