Shannen Doherty in talks to star in the new spin-off of ‘Beverly Hills 90210’
The 37-year-old actress recently met producers of the series to discuss the
possibility of reprising her role as Brenda Walsh.
However, Shannen will not commit to the role until she has seen her
character’s storyline.
Gossip blogger Perez Hilton claims: “Shannen is interested, but she wants to
know what the story is going to be first. She also wants more money than
they are apparently offering.”
Shannen’s former co-stars Tori Spelling and Jennie Garth have already agreed
to reprise their roles in the series, and one website recently started a
petition asking for Shannen’s return.
One fan, Jimmy, wrote: “Fans want Shannen back for a reason - she gave the
show the spark it needed! Her character is a legend! Fans want closure with
Brenda Walsh. If this is a spin-off of ‘90210’ then you owe fans that. Bring
Brenda back!”
Shannen left the original show in 1994 amid rumours she had fallen out with
her co-stars, the crew and upset bosses with her lateness.
Luke Perry - who starred as Brenda’s love interest Dylan McKay in the
programme, which ran from 1990 to 2000 – recently revealed he has no
intention of joining the new series.
He said: "I can't re-imagine it currently. It's just not something that I've
thought about to be quite honest. I don't see it happening."
