That's the current rumor going around after a YouTube user in the Carolinas caught One Tree Hill actor Chad Michael Murray telling fans some shocking tidbits about his future on the CW's hit drama, including, simply, "I won't be back."

Okay then!

While the video has been removed from YouTube (shockingly), some other jaw-dropping statements by the actor who plays the hunky Lucas Scott include:

• "They don't want me... I'm not joking."
• "See, this is what all the fans should do online, is start blogging and being pissed off that they don't want that. That's what they should do."
• "They're not bringing me back next year... because they want to save money."
• "This is actually the last scene we're shooting, right now. Shh..."

The CW has already picked up One Tree Hill for a seventh season, but which cast members will and will not return remains an open question. Does this mean Murray is definitely out as Lucas Scott - and will his character be killed off or simply skip town somehow?
