There’s only one Tree Hill—and we might be going home to it!
A One Tree Hill sequel series is in development with original stars set to return, according to Deadline . The reboot will reportedly be executive-produced by three OTH alums: Sophia Bush , Hilarie Burton and Danneel Ackles .
The original teen drama, which ran for nine seasons from 2003 to 2012 on The WB and The CW, was created by Mark Schwahn , who, in 2017, was accused of sexual harassment by 18 women . Now, it seems Bush and Burton are going to reclaim their turf with a follow-up series.
In posts on their respective Instagram accounts, Bush and Burton both penned: "What if you really can go back home? If there’s an opportunity to team with brilliant creatives and build a space where all our friends can show off their talents? Own our history? Reclaim our turf? Honor our fans? Sign us up."
There’s only one Tree Hill, after all. And you — the #OTHfam — have shown us that it’s not just an idea," they added. "It really is the place where 'everything’s better and everything’s safe.'"
