Chad Michael Murray has detailed his thoughts on joining a reported One Tree Hill reboot series by Netflix. Speaking to Entertainment Tonight in an interview published on Friday, November 15, Murray, 43, acknowledged the TV show’s cult following while commenting on his own potential involvement in a sequel. Asked by the outlet’s reporter in the filmed interview, “Are we going to see you in the One Tree Hill continuation on Netflix?”, Murray takes his time as he responds.
“No clue,” the actor, who portrayed Lucas Scott from the series’ premiere in September 2003 until the end of the sixth season, told the outlet. Joined in the interview by his costar Britt Robertson in the upcoming holiday film The Merry Gentlemen , Murray was then interrupted in the video. “Yes,” exclaimed Robertson, 34, which sparks laughter from Murray before the reporter then argues, “We’ve got to see Lucas in there.
” Murray, whose character left the fictional town of Tree Hill in North Carolina with his love interest Peyton Sawyer (played by Hilary Burton Morgan ), added that he hoped the reboot “comes together for the fans.” “I mean, this fandom that has grown, I mean, literally, I was just in Halifax a week ago and, sure enough, I’m running into 11, 12, 13-year-old kids who are in love with Tree Hill,” Murray told the outlet. “They’re seeing it on Hulu and they’re going, ‘Oh my gosh’.
It’s stood the test of time and I think to have some new stories, whatever.
