Posted in: Film & Music · Thu, May 15th
Remember that early 90’s TV show Beverly Hills 90210? I sure do! Well, the drama is back on our television screens soon, except this time, no Brenda, Brandon, Donna, Kelly, Dylan, Andrea and Valerie! This show will have the same basis as the original one, however it will showcase some more up to date situations that teens face in new world.
Who’s on the show?
The names of the new Beverly Hills 90210 cast have been revealed: Dustin Milligan, Anna Lynne McCord, Jessica Walter, Shenae Grimes, Tristan Wilds, Lori Loughlin, Ryan Eggold, Jessica Stroup, and Michael Steger.
The principal characters for the show have been cast for the pilot except Harry Mills, patriarch of the Mills family who moves his family from Kansas to Beverly Hills so he can take care of his alcoholic mother.
Since the network’s announcement that a spin-off was in the works, Tori Spelling has expressed an interest in the show that originally set the standard for teen drama and featured fan-favorites Kelly, Dylan and Brenda.
Tori Spelling, who played Donna Martin on the original Beverly Hills, 90210, is in negotiations with the CW about reprising her role in the network’s upcoming spin-off, which recently cast Jennie Garth as a counselor at West Beverly High.
And as far as we can decipher: the producers have decided to forego using a person of real Iranian/Persian descent to play the role of Navid Shirazi (whose character was previously described as an Iranian-American student).
Keep your eyes open this fall for the pilot!
