One Tree Hill: 8.17 – The Smoker You Drink, The Player You Get

10.30.11 – An Evening with OTH || One Tree Hill: S9 On Set

At the “Evening with One Tree Hill” event last week, 12 cast members and creator Mark Schwahn fielded a variety of questions from a moderator and capacity crowd at UNCW’s Beckwith Recital Hall. The talked about what the show has meant to them, what they think of Wilmington, where “One Tree Hill” films, and what they’d be doing if they weren’t acting.

But when talk turned to the upcoming ninth and final season, things turned cryptic.

Moderator Renee Vincent, a UNCW professor who has guest starred on the show, asked each of the cast members to sum up their character’s experiences in the final season in one word.

The results range from obvious to silly, random to deep.

Sophia Bush (Brooke): “Juggle”
This makes sense, given that last time we saw Brooke, she had a new baby to raise and was relaunching her professional career. Will Julian still be around to help?

Here’s the first season 9 promo that they showed at the Evening with One Tree Hill. It’s not the best quality but good enough for those of us who weren’t able to attend the event.

Sophia is interviewed by her co-star Bethany Joy Galeotti on Bethany’s website. A portion of the interview is below and the rest can be read via the link to Bethany’s site.

1 Were You Named After Anyone? I was named after Sophia Loren. My father is a photographer, and when I was born he was frequently doing photoshoots with her. Both of my parents adore her, and loved her spunk, elegance, and unique femininity. Plus it’s a very traditional Italian name. They wanted to honor my heritage, and inspire those qualities in me. I loved hearing as a child that I was named after such a special lady.

2 Do You Like Your Own Handwriting? Actually, I’m not really a fan of my handwriting. My mother has the most gorgeous penmanship I’ve ever seen, and my writing is more of a chicken scratch. I generally write in all capital letters so that people stand a chance!

3 What Would Your Superpower be if you could choose one? It’s a tie for me. I’d love to be able to fly, so that I could get anywhere in an instant, and have a zero carbon footprint when I travel. But I’d also love it if I never had to sleep. Can you imagine what could be done if you could use all 24 hours in every day!?

WILMINGTON, NC (WWAY) — Third time’s the charm for a die-hard “One Tree Hill” fan whose quest was to meet star Sophia Bush despite cerebral palsy.

On her third trip from Cleveland, OH, to Wilmington to watch the filming of “One Tree Hill,” Melissa Fowler finally met Bush. When told of Fowler’s love of the show and of her, Bush walked from the “Karen’s Café” set downtown to meet and sign a couple autographs for Fowler.

“Just everything she does on Crowdrise and all the environmental work she does and she seems like a really great person and someone who really cares about people and about everything in the world it’s just… I’ve never seen anyone like her,” Fowler said of her idol.

The cast and crew are working on the ninth and final season of “One Tree Hill.” Shooting is scheduled to wrap up later this month.
