Chad Michael Murray

Playing Lucas Scott on the show One Tree Hill, Chad Michael Murray was cast as the “good son” to his on-screen half-brother, Nathan. Airing on the WB/CW in 2003 the show ran until 2012 after finishing out the story.

Even though Murray hasn’t played the part in a while, his residuals are still working hard for him, which apparently run around $100,000 a year, easy. Not a bad cushion for someone looking to expand their horizons.
