The Fox Network has ordered the revival of the vintage series Beverly Hills, 90210. The series will air after 19 years, since the series ended on May 17, 2000. They also revealed that the broadcaster has ordered the initial six episodes of the series which are set to air in the summer of 2019.

Who are the casts?

And according to Variety, original cast members Jason Priestley, Jennie Garth, Ian Ziering, Gabrielle Carteris, Brian Austin Green, and Tori Spelling are all set to return.

The original series was created by Darren Star and produced by Aaron Spelling. It also starred Shannen Doherty, Luke Perry, James Eckhouse, Carol Potter, Joe E. Tata, Kathleen Robertson, Vanessa Marcil, Christine Elise McCarthy, and Vincent Young.

Perry, who is a regular on Riverdale revealed he “will do as many [episodes] as he can do” while there is  “no status right now” on Shannen Doherty, but the show “we would love to have her on.”

Spelling shared in the interview after her exit from The Masked Singer,

“It’s not technically a reboot, because I feel like everyone has seen the reboot. We don’t want to be the last ones like doing the reboot thing, and no one wants to see like old versions of ourselves, but they do want to see us playing our characters, so what we’re doing is the entire cast is playing heightened versions of themselves. 

Think Curb Your Enthusiasm episodes, in an hourlong show, and we’re all playing heightened versions, so it could be fictional, it could be nonfictional, people will have to guess. And then we will have pop-ins, because we’re behind the scenes trying to do the reboot.”
