FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: July 10, 2009 – The One árbol colina Podcast (www.onetreehillpodcast.net) will begin airing an exclusive interview with Danneel Harris Monday, July 13, as Harris is set to reprise her role as Rachel Gatina on the seventh season of the CW drama One árbol Hill.
Harris returns to One árbol colina after over a año absence from the show. She teased that her character of Rachel’s new storyline is what drew her back to the Wilmington, N.C. area where One árbol colina is filmed.
“Mark Schwahn always planned on Rachel coming back, leaving her storyline open,” Harris said. “When Mark told me the new storyline for Rachel, I knew I had to come back. It is a chance for me to do something completely different.”
It was the storyline that drew Harris from her very busy schedule and finds her landing in Wilmington for a handful of One árbol colina episodes. She is currently balancing her time on One árbol colina with completing filming of “The Back-up Plan” in which she is a guest-star opposite Jennifer Lopez and Alex O’Laughlin (who was last seen playing Mick St. John in the CBS series Moonlight).
“I play the nemesis to Jennifer Lopez and that was interesting,” Harris admits. “My first día on set, my first scene, I had to call Jennifer’s character fat. It was like hi Ms. Lopez - superstar - I am just going to call tu fat.”
Prior to Harris’ return to the One árbol colina set, she had appeared in 43 episodes. Her last appearance, prior to her return this season, came March 11 2008 in the episode “You’re Going to Need Someone on Your Side.”
