Chad Michael Murray Supports "One Tree Hill" Co-Stars
Chad Michael Murray is known as teen heartthrob Lucas Scott on "One Tree Hill," but the actor is all grown up, and has channeled his love for storytelling into a career as a novelist. Chad sat down with Alyssa Julya Smith to talk about wanting to put the stories in his head onto paper.
Murray reveals he is extremely proud of his "One Tree Hill" co-stars coming together to stand up against showrunner Mark Schwahn, who has been accused of sexual harassment throughout his tenure on the popular teen drama.
The actor explains how partnering with Heather Graham, who has written over 150 novels, for his book was a dream come true.
