Career

O'Brien began as a YouTube star with his mother as an actress and his father a camera operator. He auditioned for MTV's Teen Wolf, a series loosely based on the 1985 film of the same name, while planning to pursue college, making an agreement with his parents that provided he was not selected for a role, his sights would set on attending film school. However, after 4 auditions, O'Brien scored a major role. According to an interview on the SmodCast Internet Radio show Plus One Per Diem, he was sent a script for the lead character and main protagonist, Scott McCall. Dylan reported that he had no previous knowledge of the 1985 film of the same name and that after reading the script was immediately drawn to the character of Stiles Stilinski, who is the best friend of main character Scott within the series. After reading the script, O'Brien spoke to his manager on auditioning for the role of Stiles, which he later auditioned for and was well received by Producer Jeff Davis and Director Russell Mulcahy and briefly after received network character approval.
