A One Tree Hill revival is happening (and it's exactly what we need)

As a gamer who’s spent countless hours rewinding and rewatching shows, I can’t help but feel like I’ve just leveled up to a new high score with this One Tree Hill revival news! Twelve years since its finale, and now we’re getting a sequel? Talk about the ultimate comeback!


12 years have passed since “One Tree Hill” concluded its run, a show that left us with a wide range of feelings and remains one we long to revisit again.

The show has been shrouded in shadows due to revelations concerning its behind-the-scenes happenings. Actresses Sophia Bush, Hilarie Burton, and Bethany Joy Lenz have spoken openly about the challenges they faced while working on the show, which were allegedly orchestrated by the showrunner, Mark Schwahn.

Initially, given our troubled history, there was doubt about the possibility of a comeback for One Tree Hill. However, if it’s handled skillfully, it certainly is feasible.

Sophia Bush and Hilarie Burton are bringing us a One Tree Hill revival

As reported by Deadline, a new series based on “One Tree Hill” is being developed. Excitingly, both Bush and Burton are involved in this project, serving as Executive Producers to ensure that the narrative remains faithful to the characters they portrayed: Brooke Davis and Peyton Sawyer respectively.

Did you know this gets even better? Apart from Jensen Ackles, his wife Danneel Ackles will also be serving as an Executive Producer on the series. This role is being fulfilled through their production company, Chaos Machine. Interestingly enough, it was the Ackles family that brought Hilarie Burton and Jeffrey Dean Morgan together (and they’re now a happily married couple)!

Knowing that those who were part of the show and lived through its challenging production brings a sense of coziness. It’s not just about the beloved characters we connected with, but also the truth behind the scenes that has made me hesitant to revisit the series. However, this upcoming revival excites me because it allows these talented women to share their version of the story and pay tribute to the characters—all while adding a dash of drama!

Additionally, having more women involved will create a significantly more secure environment off-stage. This means less pressure to endure distressing plotlines merely for entertainment purposes and instead fostering opportunities for female characters to uplift and empower one another, both in front of and behind the camera – which is precisely what we’re looking forward to.

The One Tree Hill revival is set 20 years later

I can hardly contain my excitement! Not only will we get to revisit the story of Brooke and Peyton, but it turns out they’re still the inseparable duo we all know and love. After everything they’ve been through together, their unbreakable bond is a testament to their friendship – and they truly deserve every bit of it!

The show will be positioned 20 years following the conclusion of “One Tree Hill.” At this point, Brooke and Peyton’s offspring are navigating through high school and its associated turmoil. I have to say that the timeline seems a bit confusing given it’s been twelve years since the final episode. Perhaps Deadline meant 20 years from when the original series debuted, as this is the only way the numbers add up correctly.

Here’s my take on paraphrasing in a first-person perspective as a fan:

At the moment, the series is being considered by Netflix for potential production, but it hasn’t been officially approved yet. This implies that only Chad Michael Murray (as Lucas Scott) and Seth Gabel (as Chase Adams) have been confirmed to return so far, with a strong possibility of Jensen Ackles reprising his role as Rachel Gatina Scott. If the series gets the green light, there’s potential for more original “One Tree Hill” cast members to make appearances from time to time. Since Brooke and Peyton are part of the story, it seems fitting to have Hilarie Burton (as Peyton Sawyer) and Chad Michael Murray back, too. Moreover, we’d love to see how Nathan, Hailey, Jamie, and Lydia are doing currently!

So, Netflix, it’s time to greenlight this One Tree Hill revival series. We’re ready for it!
