“I don’t want to be anything/ Other than what I’ve been tryna be lately…” For those who never got that song out of their heads, don’t try to get rid of it now. One Tree Hill is getting a sequel and it’s coming to Netflix. Yes, you read that correctly. The breakout 2003 CW show won viewers’ hearts with its relatable characters, hilarious storylines, and touching moments.
Set in the small North Carolina town of Tree Hill, One Tree Hill focuses on two estranged brothers, Lucas and Nathan Scott, and their friends as they all grow up. The show stars Chad Michael Murray, James Lafferty, Sophia Bush, Hilarie Burton, Bethany Joy Lenz, and Antwon Tanner. The show ran for nine seasons, garnering a viewership of over 2 million people per episode. What could happen in the upcoming sequel? Let’s dive deeper.
A Recap Of Season 9
Warning: Spoilers for Season 9.
Knowing what happened in the last season of One Tree Hill may prove helpful in gauging what direction the sequel will take. Although short, Season 9 was jam-packed with moments that had viewers clutching the edge of their seats. After being kidnapped at the end of Season 8 and subjected to weeks of torture and abuse, Nathan makes it back to Haley and his family.
In the meantime, Lucas returns to help Haley during a difficult time, Dan Scott finally makes peace with his family and his brother, and Clay meets an unexpected visitor from his past. Season 9 may have marked the end of the characters in Tree Hill, but the show has undoubtedly stayed close to our hearts and has us jumping for our remotes every time.
Bringing In The Old With The New
The sequel would not be complete without talking about the people who made the original show so memorable. It is confirmed that Sophia Bush and Hilarie Burton will be reprise their roles as Peyton and Brooke; they will also serve as the sequel’s executive producers. Chad Michael Murray, who played Lucas, has already confirmed he will not be a part of the sequel; he likely has other projects like Freakier Friday to work on. While it hasn’t been confirmed or denied that Bethany Lenz or James Lafferty will be appearing in the sequel, it could leave a giant hole in the Tree Hill world if the show’s most consistent couple isn’t part of the continuing story.
Final Thoughts
A One Tree Hill sequel without a doubt will gain attention from old fans and new watchers. One the largest questions surrounding the sequel remains unanswered, though: will we see either of the Scott brothers or Haley? The original CW show had a knack for unexpected plotlines and guest appearances, so it wouldn’t be out of the blue to believe that either Scott brother will return. Hopefully, with Burton and Bush working on the Netflix sequel, they’ll ensure the new show will honor all the original characters and their backstories to the highest degree.
