Jennie Garth became known through “Beverly Hills, 90210” and was also in the reboot. However, she did not want to slip into her role again.
“Beverly Hills, 90210” star Jennie Garth (52) apparently has no good memories of her appearance in the reboot of the successful series. The actress slipped back into her cult role of Kelly Taylor for the series “90210”, which ran from 2008 to 2013. At an appearance at the “’90s Con” in Florida, she said she regrets having taken part in the remake. “I wish I hadn’t done it. No offense.”
“The producer was a friend of a friend and I remember him coming into my living room, sitting down with me and calling it the chance of a lifetime. He asked me to do it and I didn’t know how to say no at the time,” the 52-year-old added, according to the report. “But the people were very nice.”
These stars were also part of the reboot
Jennie Garth, Shannen Doherty (1971-2024) and Tori Spelling (51) were the only actresses from the original series to return for “90210”. Shenae Grimes-Beech (34) and AnnaLynne McCord (37) played the main roles in the reboot.
However, “90210” was unable to match the success of the original. The series “Beverly Hills, 90210”, which was created by Darren Star (63) and ran for ten seasons from 1990 to 2000, followed a group of teenage friends. The series also starred Jason Priestley (55), Luke Perry (1966-2019), Brian Austin Green (51), Gabrielle Carteris (63) and Ian Ziering (60).
In 2019, there was a revival of the successful series from the 1990s with “BH90210”. Tori Spelling, Jennie Garth, Jason Priestley, Shannen Doherty, Ian Ziering, Brian Austin Green and Gabrielle Carteris returned. In the spin-off of the cult series, the former teen stars played exaggerated versions of themselves. However, it only lasted one season.
