The first episode of the cult classic drama One Tree Hill aired 19 years ago in 2003. We watched the whole slew of characters for nine long seasons, and we loved, well, most of them. Those incredibly talented actors made the show, so let’s visit them and see what they are doing now and how they have changed over the years.
1. James Lafferty — Nathan Scott
The 36-year-old actor thankfully did not lose his acting prowess and avoided getting typecast after the series finale. He continues to appear in both television and movies, starring in such projects as Crisis, The Haunting of Hill House, and the latest show — Everyone Is Doing Great, where Lafferty appeared with One Tree Hill co-star Stephen Colletti.
2. Chad Michael Murray — Lucas Scott
Chad Michael Murray left the project after season 6, but this doesn’t mean his acting career stopped then and there. Murray has been seen in projects such as Scream Queens, Riverdale, Marvel’s Agent Carter, Fortress, and many more. The 40-year-old actor has been married twice: the first time to his lovely One Tree Hill co-star Sophia Bush, and the second — actress Sarah Roemer.
3. Bethany Joy Lenz — Hayley Scott
After the end of the series, Bethany Joy Lenz played in several TV projects, including Grey’s Anatomy, Dexter, Agents of SHIELD, and Colony. Her most recent roles aren’t as hype as the previous titles, probably because they’re TV movies like Five Star Christmas and A Valentine’s Match.
