Without the brothers, but with Sophia Bush and Hilarie Burton to reprise Brooke Davis and Peyton Sawyer.
“I don't want to be anything, other than what I've been tryna be lately..“Is that okay? You look good in the head? The Scott Brothers will make their return to One Tree Hill! And you can scream now!
The cult teen series from the 2000s, which ended about fifteen years ago after 9 seasons, is about to return to Netflix. Not a reboot, not a spin-off, but a direct sequel, with Sophia Bush And Hilarie Burton headliners!
The two friends, very close for years and who even have a podcast that is a hit, Drama Queens, with the third accomplice Bethany Joy Lenzwill be the stars and executive producers.
They will reprise their roles as Brooke Davis and Peyton Sawyer, in a story that will take place 20 years later and will follow Brooke and Peyton as mothers, now raising their own teenagers!
It's not yet known if other cast members will be involved, but according to Deadline, Chad Michael Murray should not reprise his role as Lucas Scott. What about James Lafferty And Bethany Joy Lenz (who played the star couple Nathan and Haley)? To be continued…
The project is currently in development and is being helmed by screenwriter Becky Hartman Edwards (Switched at Birth, The Bold Type, Firefly Lane) who is working on it for Warner Bros. TV.
So who will ultimately come back? When will it be released on Netflix? For now, the work has only just begun, but already, Sophia Bush And Hilarie Burton rejoice:
“What if you could actually go home? What if there was an opportunity to team up with brilliant creatives and build a space where all of our friends could showcase their talents? Own our story? Reclaim our territory? Honor our fans?” they write in an Instagram message, like a tackle sent to the creator of the original series Mark Schwahnwho has faced a wave of sexual harassment allegations since the show ended.
This time he will not be invited to One Tree Hill.
