One Tree Hill stars James Lafferty and Michael Trucco reunited on Wednesday, Dec. 29, sharing a glimpse of their meetup on Instagram. In a photo, the two posed in front of a sign that was edited to say "One Tree Hill." Michael captioned the pic, "Sign seems legit. Always a good day when I get to spend time catching up with my buddy/nephew @jameslafferty."
James went on to re-share the photo on his Instagram Story, joking, "Just hangin' with Uncle Cooper."
Though One Tree Hill fans know Michael as the kind brother of Deb Lee, Netflix viewers know him as Midnight Mass' Wade Scarborough. The Mike Flanagan series is just one of the many roles the star has nabbed since leaving Tree Hill in 2006.
And while Michael's moved on to bigger things, he has never forgotten his roots—just like the rest of the cast.
Over the years, the cast members, including Chad Michael Murray, Sophia Bush and Hilarie Burton, have reunited to celebrate the show that brought them together. To see those nostalgia-inducing moments, check out the photos below!

"Got to hang out with some great humans this weekend," Austin wrote in November 2023. "Old friends. Old stories. Lots of laughs. And made a bunch of new friends. Thank you to everyone who made this happen!"
Michael Trucco and James Lafferty photoshopped a sign to pay tribute to the show. "Sign seems legit," Michael wrote. "Always a good day when I get to spend time catching up with my buddy/nephew."
James Lafferty and Bryan Greenberg had a mini One Tree Hill reunion and were joined by Jamie Chung and Alexandra Park.
As Hilarie shared, these three will always be there for another, through "thick and thin."
Fans were loving this reunion, including Kristin Cavallari, who commented a heart on the post.

It's safe to say these former cast mates will be BFFs.
Clearly, someone cannot contain their excitement over this reunion.
Throughout the many seasons of One Tree Hill, fans got to know and love many a character, including Michael Trucco's Cooper. As die-hard fans will recall, the conniving Rachel seduced Cooper and tricked him into thinking she was having his baby in the second season. The gig was up, however, when they both got in a car accident and she had to confess she lied about the whole thing, thus leading to Cooper's exit.
