Given the fact that “Beverly Hills, 90210” and “Heathers” made Shannen Doherty a star, you may be surprised to learn that she wasn’t all that excited about either project being rebooted. First, there was Paramount Network’s “Heathers,” which premiered in 2018 after some controversy that almost saw it shelved for good. As Doherty told Entertainment Weekly, she first heard about plans for a reboot when she was undergoing chemotherapy. When first asked if she’d like to participate, she responded, “No. I don’t know how you could ever, ever remake it.” However, she changed her mind once she read the script and eventually agreed to a cameo. Even so, she was adamant she didn’t want to rehash any of her other acting credits, quipping, “Somebody asked me, ‘Would you do the ‘Charmed’ reboot?’ and I was like, ‘Oh my God, I can’t be the reboot queen!'”
So when she was approached about appearing in 2019’s “Beverly Hills, 90210” reboot, “BH90210,” she initially shut it down over concerns that she would become renowned for rehashing her greatest career moments. This time, the loss of a dear pal would make her change her mind. Following Luke Perry’s death, she agreed to take part, telling Us Weekly, “I thought it was the right time to do it, to honor a friend and be with my friends, recreating something that was special to America, special to the world, and most importantly, special to all of us.”
