Barton To Say Goodbye to The O.C.?
Actress Mischa Barton may be set to leave hit TV series The O.C., according to media reports in the U.S. The 20-year-old actress, who plays Marissa Cooper on the show, has expressed a desire to focus on a film career. According to TVGuide.com, the show will return for its fourth season in the autumn, without Barton. The O.C. will air its season finale Thursday, where one character is killed-off. Producers have filmed several endings with different cast members dying, in order to keep viewers and the show's staff in the dark. One of the endings reportedly features Barton's character suffering a drug overdose.
