Thanks for the new thread.
Interview with Olivia Wilde. She discusses her new film "Turistas". But there's also a bit about the O.C.

Q. Are you completely done with "The O.C."?
A. I'm done with "The O.C." right now. I'm actually shooting "The Black Donnellys," a new show for NBC.
Q. So you don't have any problem jumping back and forth between TV and movies?
A. When I left "The O.C." I didn't think I was going to do television again. Then I read the script to "The Black Donnellys" and it was so much better than most of the film scripts I was reading. And, of course, it was written and directed by Paul Haggis (Oscar-winning co-screenwriter of "Crash"), so I knew I couldn't pass that opportunity up.
Q. What happened to Alex (Kelly) on "The O.C."?
A. She went back to school is how we let it go. I've always thought about doing some random guest-starring role for those guys, just come back in so we could kill Alex or something. Have her get run over by a car or something so people will stop asking me whatever happened to her.
