It was reported James Van Der Beek would be on One Tree Hill but Austin Nichols showed up do you know why?

From what I've read, Austin is the producer of the movie and James is going to be the director. I missed most of the episode Monday so I don't know exactly what happened. I caught Lucas saying something to the effect that the whole movie deal was over. But maybe it not and we'll get to see James after all.|||James is still going to be on. Chad Michael Murray just did an interview talking about filming with him %26amp; how they worked on Dawson's Creek together.
