'Beverly Hills, 90210' revival teaser sees the original cast come together with an all too familiar tune playing around them
Fox has released a teaser trailer for the upcoming reboot of 'Beverly Hills 90210', with an all too familiar background score. The teaser, featuring 90210's returning cast of Tori Spelling, Jason Priestley, Jennie Garth, Shannen Doherty, Brian Austin Green, Ian Ziering, and Gabrielle Carteris, brings back the iconic theme song from the 1990's hit.
The new video allows viewers a glimpse into each of the characters kickstarting their days, with Doherty practicing yoga, Spelling making coffee, Garth blow-drying her hair, and more, as the theme song starts playing from everywhere around them, obviously teasing the show's comeback! From an alarm going off and coffee dripping to a dog barking and a car starting, all the characters recognize the 90210 tune. We also get a glimpse of Ziering driving a convertible with a BH90210 license plate in the teaser.
The series titled 'BH90210', which premieres on August 7, is a revival of the original featuring the original actors of the 1990s teen drama playing “heightened” versions of themselves. In a tongue-in-cheek meta twist, the actors will star as themselves, considering a revival of 90210, according to Fox Network. "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?" said Fox.
The teaser also shows the stars gather around for their first table read of the pilot script, before stating that "the gang returns home".
Luke Perry, who passed away on March 2018 after he suffered a massive stroke at age 52, was known for his role of heartthrob Dylan McKay on the show. About filming without Perry, actor Jason Priestley told EW: "It’s incredibly special, and I think that we all appreciate it more, and appreciate our fellow castmates a little more now." The reboot is also expected to honor the late actor, who also played Archie's father on 'Riverdale'.
The original series, which revolved around the lives of students at the posh West Beverly Hills High School in Los Angeles, ran for 10 seasons between 1990 and 2000.
