“What is really special is being in a kind of original group of our family. And hear everyone’s excitement and everyone’s trepidation and why people are in it and why they fear it and what they would like and what they would need,” she said.

“The thing that I think is the coolest is, you know, everybody went to write, produce, direct, be so creative,” she said, adding that it was “really nice” to collaborate with her friends and, in turn, learn “from amazing women”.

Bush, who played Brooke Davis for all nine seasons of the WB series, said she likes to see “what everybody wants their characters to do now.” Bush starred alongside Burton, Bethany Joy Lenz, Chad Michael Murray and James Lafferty.

“Even if through this development process, let’s just say we’re not going to finish filming this thing. What it gave me — the world-building that I saw — from all the women and all the men who have helped build the show since season one, it’s like my heart is really full,” she added.

“I feel like I’ve seen it, even if no one else ever does,” she said. “And that’s what I appreciate.” Noting that since watching the host develop the characters’ present-day lives, she was able to answer common questions from fans, including “What do you think your characters are doing now?”

“So wherever he goes, it’s really a gift,” she added.
