Chad Michael Murray shot to fame as Lucas Scott in One Tree Hill, and now he's gracing our screens again in Netflix's new rom com.

As a die hard One Tree Hill fan, it's hard to stomach that the show first aired in 2003 and wrapped in 2012.

The nine-season strong drama series that followed two brothers, Lucas and Nathan Scott, as they navigated high school, basketball and family dynamics, was a huge success and launched Murray's career.

He even went on to marry his co-star Sophia Bush in 2005, but by 2006 they were divorced after rumours he'd gotten carried away with Paris Hilton on the set of House of Wax.

Considering Murray and Bush had to remain on-screen together for another six years and were love interests for many of them, we can only imagine how awkward it was on set.

Murray also starred in A Cinderella Story and Freaky Friday, so many of us basically grew up with him.

But his latest film, Mother of the Bride, has really got people talking.

Murray, who plays a doctor, is joined by a host of other famous faces, including Brooke Shields, Miranda Cosgrove and Sean Teale.

The plot suggests viewers will be in for a wild ride.

After spending a year abroad in London, Emma (Miranda Cosgrove) returns home and shocks her mother Lana (Brooke Shields) with news that she's getting married in a month in Thailand.

Things only get worse when Lana discovers that Emma's soon to be husband RJ (Sean Teale) is the son of Will (Benjamin Bratt), the man who broke her heart in earlier years.

Despite Mother of the Bride coming out over a decade after One Tree Hill wrapped, fans of Murray have spotted a very unlikely link between the two.

It turns out that Murray is playing a 'Lucas' yet again.

Yep, it seems like he just can't get away from that name.

Fans have been obsessing over this detail on social media.

One person wrote: "I was watching this random Netflix film, mother of the bride and all is silly and fun until I see omg, it’s my childhood crush chad micheal murray from one tree hill?! And he’s named Lucas, same as one tree hill!! But man, he looked hot, good for you Lucas, good for you."

Another said: "Best part of mother of the bride was when Chad Michael Murray said his name was Lucas."

A third added: "Chad Michael Murray’s name in “Mother of the Bride” is Lucas & it literally made my heart melt. I need to now rewatch One Tree Hill."

Same here.
