Mischa Barton reportedly will not be returning to 'The Hills: New Beginnings' Season 2 (a reboot of the OG series that aired nine years ago), because she is too "boring". 

According to TMZ, sources revealed that Mischa will not be returning for Season 2 and the actress will be replaced by someone else who has more spunk. The sourced shared that the series' producers found, "Barton's storyline a bit bland and her personality a little boring," meaning they want someone who has a little more drama because Mischa wasn't bringing a lot of spark to the series. 

The insider also revealed that Mischa is the only cast member who will not be returning for Season 2 of 'The Hills: New Beginnings'. The other cast members that include Audrina Patridge, Heidi Montag, Spencer Pratt, Whitney Port, Jason Wahler, Frankie Delgado, Brody Jenner and Kaitlynn Carter will return and reprise their respective roles. 

TMZ reports that apparently, Mischa will be replaced by  DJ and actress Caroline D’Amore who used to party with Kim Kardashian and Paris Hilton, claiming MTV thinks she might add the juice that is needed for the show.

Caroline is currently the executive chef and co-owner of D'Amore's Pizza, a Los Angeles based restaurant, which was originally founded by her parents. Caroline is also the founder of a brand of sauces known as Pizza Girl and has three flavors Marinara, Puttanesca and Vodka sauces. 

Apart from this, the website also added that Brody who was one of the OG cast members will be returning, but with a heavier wallet than he started off. According to TMZ's sources, Brody apparently got around $50k per episode. They were told, that Brody held out till he got a sweet deal and walked away with it. 

'The Hills: New Beginnings' will return for Season 2 sometime in 2020. Check your local listings for more information.
