The official title of the six-episode limited series is BH90210 and it will see the surviving cast members together on the screen for the first time in quite a while. It was believed Luke Perry was going to try and make a cameo on the series, but he sadly passed away last month after suffering a massive stroke.
Shannen Doherty is joiningBeverly Hills, 90210cast members Jason Priestley, Jennie Garth, Ian Ziering, Gabrielle Carteris, Brian Austin Green, and Tori Spelling as they play heightened versions of themselves.

“What will happen when first loves, old romances, friends and frenemies come back together, as this iconic cast - whom the whole world watched grow up together - attempts to continue from where they left off?”
WhileLuke Perryhadn’t officially signed on to theBeverly Hills, 90210revival series, it is believed the show will pay tribute to the late actor. The actors will all be executive producers on the show and there is only six episodes planned at this time, though there could be more down the line if the initial run is a success. Bringing Shannen Doherty on board is definitely going to bring a lot more eyes to the project, which already had a huge amount of hype surrounding it.
Shannen Dohertystarred as Brenda Walsh onBeverly Hills, 90210from 1990 to 1994, when she was famously fired. Her character was written off and sent to study abroad in London. Doherty had a reputation for being notoriously difficult to work with and that led to tensions amongst the rest of the cast. The actress did reprise her Brenda role in the CW’s90210reboot, which aired from 2008 to 2013. It seems she may have had a change of heart about reuniting with her former castmates.
