As you know – we’re always going to be on the edge of our seats, waiting for more information on the One Tree Hill reboot. We care about what will happen with the characters that we’ve loved. We care about who will return.
Hilarie Burton was talking with People about what is being turned in for the show and commented on writer and executive producer Becky Hartman Edwards.
Burton said, “Our showrunner, Becky Hartman Edwards, is so good at female friendships and multi-generational shows, and that’s why we were so excited to team up with her. So I feel very confident in what’s being presented.”
“That was kind of the best part of One Tree Hill, that parents and kids could watch it together, and be able to talk about stuff that’s hard,” she also said. Burton has two children, Augustus “Gus,” 14, and George, 6.
Burton and Bush are set to reprise their roles at Peyton Sawyer and Brooke Davis. The show is being written by Becky Hartman Edwards and she will executive produce. Warner Bros. TV is also working on the reboot. Jensen Ackles and Danneel Ackles also executive produce through their Chaos Machine banner.
We just don’t want to see Mark Schwan working on the project, but all reports say that he won’t be.
The reboot is said to focus on Brooke and Peyton who are now parents to teens. They are facing challenges such as “love, insecurities and grief.”
If you aren’t familiar with the original series – you need to do yourself a favor and watch it immediately. It focused on two half brothers, Lucas (Chad Michael Murray) and Nathan (James Lafferty). It was about the way that they navigated their lives through highschool and beyond. It’s a coming of age story that helped everyone who watched it navigate their lives.
The show was anchored by its supporting cast, Burton, Bush, Bethany Joy Lenz, Austin Nichols, Jana Kramer, Stephen Colletti, Antwon Tanner and Paul Johansson.
The chances of One Tree Hill coming back means everything to its fans. This one included.
