Breaking News: Brian Austin Green May Join OTH!

1 06 2009

Teen drama worlds are colliding again!

Beverly Hills 90210’s Brian Austin Green, who played David, may join One Tree Hill for its seventh season.

The Hollywood Reporter says he is in talks to play Clayton, the previously announced new character that will be Nathan’s agent.  EW’s Ausiello says “it’s virtually a done deal.”

I’ve been hoping BAG would pop up on the new 90210 to repair his relationship with Tori Spelling’s Donna.  I never imagined in my wildest dreams that he’d end up on a different teen drama!

Thoughts?!
