This was posted a few days ago. I remember in the first season of The OC websites would post rumors that she didn't get along with the rest of the cast, but then there would be pap pics of her and Rachel shopping and she went to Adam's band's show. I always assumed at the time she left it was because she wanted to pursue a movie career, I can't remember if I read a quote from her or that was just the general consensus, but I remember thinking what a dumb move it was. I googled the other day and found an article where Peter Gallagher said it wasn't her decision. Dumb of them to write off the biggest star on the show.

I think because she talked quite a bit about the show preventing her from movie offers, and it was generally known and talked about that most of the cast desperately wanted off after the first season blew up their careers, so that all meant that most viewers were assuming that she was the one who wanted to leave to pursue a movie career. In hindsight it should have been obvious that it wasn’t her decision though as she would have been under contract, but yeah that was definitely how it was perceived at the time by most people

Team Mischa. She was amazing in Incision.

At least I think that was Mischa. I'm kind of high right now

Welp I got both the movie title and actress wrong. It's Excision and it's AnnaLynne McCord. Still Team Mischa sorry girl!

[green_monsterx]

Haha I was just about to be like I think that was AnnaLynne McCord. I only remember that bc I remember her interview where she said it was that movie that made her realize she had DID

[electric_lemur]

I’m super high right now. Hi

[missjersey]

[ladychips]

i watched a really weird movie with her in it and like, bijou phillips and johnny rhys meyers about runaways and vampires or something like that, it was very odd

[moddchicc]

Octane, lol. That movie used to get a lot of airplay on cable in the mid-2000s

[ladychips]

now im looking and seeing that norman reedus was in it too? wth lol

[missjersey]

After learning he voiced acted the villain in the latest Helluva Boss episode, an animated show about Hell furries, I now realize he'll do anything he wants to no matter how small or niche.
