Chad Michael Murray won’t be back for the upcoming seventh season of One Tree Hill, and he’s anything but pleased about it.

Chad, 27, claims show producers have opted not to renew his contract with the series.

The actor’s career took when The CW series debuted on The WB in 2003.

Last weekend, a few of Chad’s fans posted a bizarre video online, in which the actor announces that his character, Lucas Scott, has been written out of the primetime drama, thus ending his tenure with the show.

“They’re not bringing me back next year… because they want to save money. They don’t want me. I’m not joking. This is actually the last scene we’re shooting, right now,” Chad can be heard saying as he tells fans of his departure from One Tree Hill.
