Former "One Tree Hill" star Chad Michael Murray is heading back to TV with a recurring part on Season 5 of "Southland."
Murray will play an Lapd officer named Dave Mendoza who's described as likable but a bit of a "loose cannon," per TVLine. He does his job well enough, but off duty, he's something of a bad influence on Ben Sherman (Ben McKenzie).
So yes, Ryan Atwood and Lucas Scott will be hanging out together.
