Sophia Bush recently shared a cryptic update about the long-awaited One Tree Hill revival series—and fans are bummed.
On Sunday, March 15, Bush, 43, spoke with Entertainment Tonight at the Elton John AIDS Foundation’s Oscars viewing party in Los Angeles.
The actress, who played Brooke Davis in the coming-of-age drama series, was asked if the One Tree Hill reboot was “still happening. After hesitating for a moment, she answered.
“You know, we have done such great work, and it’s been really incredible to see every single person in our cast got excited about that phone call, had amazing ideas about where their characters would be, what stories they’d want to explore,” Bush explained.
She added, “I would say that we’re all very aware of what’s happening to media right now and who media is being bought by,” seeming to hint at Paramount’s recent acquisition of Warner Bros. after outbidding Netflix. “And I don’t know that any of us are the current media conglomerates’ best friends or favorite people.”
To conclude her update, Bush shared, “But I’m OK with that. I’m patient, if nothing else. That’s the classiest way I can say it.”
That’s when Bush’s girlfriend, Ashlyn Harris, pointed out, “That was a long-winded of ‘You’ll have to wait and see.’”
In August 2024, Bush confirmed via Instagram that a One Tree Hill revival series was in the works.

“What if you really can go back home?” she captioned the post. “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.”
She added, “There’s only one Tree Hill, after all. And you — the #OTHfam — have shown us that it’s not just an idea. It really is the place where ‘everything’s better and everything’s safe.'”
One Tree Hill aired for nine seasons from 2003 to 2012. In addition to Bush, it starred Chad Michael Murray, James Lafferty, Bethany Joy Lenz, Austin Nichols, Antwon Tanner, Paul Johansson, and others.
