One Tree Hill: Meet Robert Buckley

Better known without a shirt, this hunky actor will be coming to primetime next year and will be making a splash with all the viewers. Millions of viewers fell in love with Robert Buckley and his perfect abs this year when he played the boy toy in Lipstick Jungle and this past winter he starred opposite Heather Locklear in Flirty with Forty. Buckley is leaving Cougarville and heading to a new television show full of hot drama, sexy actors/actresses and a storyline fit for a king.

Robert Buckley will be starring in the seventh season of One Tree Hill as Nathan Scott's sports agent. Without Chad Michael Murray, the show needed new blood to freshen up the storylines and keep fans on the edge of their seats. The role was originally offered to 90210 veteran Brian Austin Greene but he turned it down leaving the court wide open for the hottie Robert Buckley. The season seven opener is slated to air Monday, September 14 at 8pm which is an all new time for One Tree Hill. Before our Tivo's caught on fire with this new hottie we figure we'd provide some information about the new cast member.

The Southern California native earned his degree in economics from the University of California at San Diego. After graduation, Buckley went on to work with an economic consulting firm only to leave and pursue acting a year and a half later. His good looks and fabulous physique got the attention of many Hollywood execs and within months Robert had gone from being a consultant to being a Hollywood actor. His big break moment came when NBC hired him to play Kirby Atwood on Lipstick Jungle but his recent signing onto One Tree Hill will make the star a household name within minutes.
