Tori Spelling returns to 90210

Another 'Beverly Hills, 90210' alum is returning to the familiar zip code. This time Tori Spelling has signed on to reprise her character Donna Martin in '90210,' The CW's spinoff of the popular 1990's soap.

'Beverly Hills, 90210' was created by Spelling's father, Aaron, and the character Donna was a good girl whose 2000 wedding to high school beau David Silver (Brian Austin Green) capped off the show in the tenth season.

"Donna loved designing and wanted a career in fashion. It'll be fun to explore that storyline," Spelling told People. "And, I'm sure fans will be dying to know if she's still married to David!"

According to a show rep, Donna will "own one of the coolest stores in Beverly Hills."

Spelling joins 'Beverly Hills, 90210' actress Jennie Garth, who is reprising her role as Kelly Taylor, who becomes a counselor at their alma mater.

"Donna Martin was such a huge part of my life. It's going to be so fun to work with Jennie again and see where Donna is today," Spelling said. "When they say you can't go home again, it's not true. I'm headed back to the zip code I know best and couldn't be happier!"

Other cast members are Rob Estes, who plays the patriarch of the clan and the principal of West Beverly Hills High. Lori Loughlin will play his wife Debbie, and Shenae Grimes will play the central character, the couple's daughter. Ryan Eggold, AnnaLynne McCord, Dustin Milligan, Michael Steger, Jessica Stroup, Jessica Walter and Tristan Wilds also have roles.

Jennie Garth officially on new 90210

The rumors that Jennie Garth will be returning to a familiar zip code - 90210 - have been verified. Garth, who played Kelly Taylor on the original show, will make special guest appearances on the CW's spinoff, the network announced.

Garth is the first of the original gang to sign on, although Ian Ziering and Tori Spelling have expressed interest as well.

Jennie Garth Could Be on 90210 Spin-off

Jennie Garth has dropped out of the pilot for the CBS comedy My Best Friend’s Girl, which will free-up her schedule to star in The CW’s 90210 spin-off. Garth has been coping with the recent death of her father and her decision to leave work on the pilot was mutual.

It has been rumored that Veronica Mars creator Rob Thomas has been courting Garth to star in 90210 “the new class.” Much like the original show which centered around a family that moved to Beverly Hills form Minnesota, the new teen drama will involve a family that relocates form Kansas so that the father can become a principal.

Thomas told People that “there is a plan for bringing back one of the cast members,” possibly as a fashion design teacher. Both Tori Spelling, who played Donna, Martin, and Ian Ziering, who played Steve Sanders, have mentioned interest in appearing on the show.

Dustin Milligan and Anna Lynne McCord have already been announced as cast members.
