For starters, Bilson utters the iconic line we referenced above, before revealing how she really feels about Chino. And what would a proper O.C. tribute be without at least one party guest going full Marissa Cooper and rage-throwing a chair into the pool?
In addition to Bilson, the campaign was created in partnership with The O.C. creator Josh Schwartz and executive producer Stephanie Savage. Directed by Anna Mastro, the campaign will roll out on Hulu, Max, Peacock and other digital platforms beginning July 1.
For the tragically uninitiated, The O.C. was a teen drama that aired on Fox for four seasons, from 2003 to 2007. Along with Bilson, it introduced the world to names like Mischa Barton, Adam Brody, Chris Carmack and Ben McKenzie. Heck, it even featured a post-Everwood (but pre-Parks and Recreation) Chris Pratt, among a myriad other ’00s stars.
Hit PLAY on the video above to watch an extended cut of Bilson’s campaign for 21Seeds Infused Tequila, then drop a comment with your own favorite O.C. moments below. Are you holding out hope for a full cast reunion someday?
