What Jensen Ackles Comments Mean For The One Tree Hill Reboot

It Doesn’t Seem Like Ackles Has Big Plans To Appear In The Show

Jensen Ackles seemed legitimately surprised to be asked about appearing in theOne Tree Hillrebooton the red carpet for his seriesCountdown, suggesting that he had not thought about it. This likely means there have been no discussions about him appearing in the show.

His real attachment to the series is through his wife, and for starring in another CW series that aired at the same time asOne Tree Hill. Ackles does seem up for the job if that’s something his wife asked him to do.The Ackles formed Chaos Machine Productions in 2020, which will produce the new series.

However, Danneel did not appear in that series, suggesting that just because they’re attached as producers doesn’t mean they intend to act in something. Jensen seems to be happy to do what Danneel needs.

Our Take On Jensen Ackles' Comments

Ackles Would Be A Welcome Addition To The One Tree Hill Reboot

Jensen Ackles is clearly not giving his most thoughtful answer to the question about appearing inOne Tree Hill. He seems happy enough to answer the question, butit’s obviously not something on his mind at the moment. His comment about “I won’t get away that easily” suggests he’ll do what his wife asks.

Jensen wants theOne Tree Hillreboot to be as successful as anyone else.

It also suggests that he’s somewhat uninterested in appearing in the show, but at the same time, would be all for a smaller role if the show required it. His production company is involved after all. Jensen wants theOne Tree Hillreboot to be as successful as anyone else. If that requires him to act, so be it.

Ackles always brings an energetic performance to whatever series he’s a part of, whether he’s playing Soldier Boy inThe Boysor Mark Meachum inCountdown. If he appeared inOne Tree Hill, even for just a cameo, it would likely be a welcome arc. Hopefully, Danneel will give him the prod he needs to appear.
