Sophia Bush Shares Promising Update on One Tree Hill Sequel Series

Murray has shared similar sentiments.

“I was a baby. I didn’t know up, down, left, right,” he told The Cut in May 2024. “You move out there and you go, ‘Well, what am I supposed to do now? Get married? That’s exciting!’”

8. Bush would later date Lafferty in 2008 before striking up a romance with Austin Nichols, who played her husband Julian on OTH. The couple called it quits in 2012, the same year the series ended.

9. There was one successful on-set match: Lisa Goldstein, who played Millie in the later seasons, married Brendan Kirsch, the show’s basketball coordinator, in 2011.

10. During an episode of her podcast Drama Queens, which she co-hosts with Bush and Lenz, Burton revealed her husband Jeffrey Dean Morgan was almost her colleague on OTH. 

“You know when I met Jeff, he was like, ‘Oh I auditioned for that show,'” she said, revealing he had read for the part of Keith, Lucas’ father figure, a role that went to Craig Sheffer. “‘And I was like, wait, what?'” 

11. Burton and Morgan would instead get introduced by her co-star Danneel Ackles, whose husband Jensen Ackles formed a close connection with The Walking Dead star after Morgan played his father on Supernatural.
