FOX...
“90210,”
A SIX-EPISODE EVENT SERIES, TO AIR ON FOX
Original
“Beverly Hills, 90210” Cast Members Jason Priestley, Jennie
Garth,
Ian
Ziering, Gabrielle Carteris, Brian Austin Green and Tori Spelling to
Reunite
in Iconic Show’s Return Home
Jason
Priestley, Jennie Garth, Ian Ziering, Gabrielle Carteris, Brian
Austin Green and Tori Spelling, the original stars of “Beverly
Hills, 90210,” the groundbreaking teen drama that defined Southern
California life, are set to return to FOX, the network they called
home for the entire decade of the 1990s, in a six-episode event
series, 90210. Chris Alberghini and Mike Chessler (“90210,”
“Awkward”) will write and executive-produce 90210. The series is
scheduled to air Summer 2019.
90210
comes with a big twist: Priestley, Garth, Ziering, Carteris, Green
and Spelling will play heightened versions of themselves in a
brand-new serialized drama – with a healthy dose of irreverence –
that is inspired by their real lives and relationships.
Having
gone their separate ways since the original series ended 19 years
ago, Jason, Jennie, Ian, Gabrielle, Brian and Tori reunite when one
of them suggests it’s time to get a “Beverly Hills, 90210”
reboot up and running. But getting it going may make for an
even more delicious soap than the reboot itself. 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?
“‘Beverly
Hills, 90210’ left an indelible impact on pop culture and an entire
generation,” said Michael Thorn, President, Entertainment, FOX.
“Its powerful legacy is an important part of our network’s DNA –
bold stories not told anywhere else and bigger-than-life-characters –
and we’re honored to bring back the beloved original cast members
for 90210.”
Spawning
generations of imitators, “Beverly Hills, 90210” premiered on FOX
on October 4, 1990, when it became an instant pop culture sensation
and one of the most adored programs in the network’s history.
Centered on the tony Los Angeles community identified in its title,
the show aired for 10 seasons, during which it documented the trials
and tribulations of a group of friends from high school to college
and into early adulthood, as they navigated a myriad of coming-of-age
dramas and complex rivalries, often making real-world headlines by
tackling controversial and socially relevant topics.
90210
will be produced by CBS Television Studios and FOX Entertainment. It
will be executive-produced by Chris Alberghini, Mike Chessler,
Gabrielle Carteris, Jennie Garth, Brian Austin Green, Jason
Priestley, Tori Spelling and Ian Ziering. The series was
conceived by Alberghini, Chessler, Spelling and Garth. “Like”
