Shannen Doherty is returning to 90210.
The actress, 37, has been cast on CW's upcoming 90210 spin-off, the show's executive producer, Gabe Sachs, announced at the Television Critics Association fall press tour Saturday.
She will reprise her role as Brenda Walsh, who, after a successful theater career, has returned to West Beverly High as a guest director for the school’s musical production.

The announcement comes weeks after her rep confirmed to Us that the star was in talks to join the spin-off, which is set to air September 2.
Doherty isn't the only familiar face.
New mom Tori Spelling is also slated reprise her role as Donna Martin down the line.
Jennie Garth, who played blonde rich girl Kelly Taylor, will star in several episodes as a high school guidance counselor.
Garth - who once got into a fistfight on-set with Doherty - has said she would have no problem if Doherty was cast.
"A lot of time has passed, and I'm a big girl," she said.

Stop hatin' on Shannon. You don't know her. Yes, she had her psychotic moments but don't we all? And if you can't admit that then you're in true denial.

I just cannot stand her, I'm sorry. SHE is rude and crude and has no other qualities I like. I could care less about her, but love everyone else on the show.

It's going to be hit with Shannen on board. However, Shannen have a little lose screw on her head and might leave the job hanging again just like what she did in the fisrt 90210 and Charmed. I hope they also cast Alyssa Milano in 90210....lol

It sounds like a publicity stunt. The article says she'll be playing a "guest director for a musical on the show", which means she'll only be on for a handful of episodes. She's not going to be on the show as a regular cast member. It's a shame too, because she was the best female character on the original 90210. I loved the Brenda and Dillon storyline.

She couldn't get along with anyone on the first 90210. Gee, let's cast her in this one. I'm so sure she's changed! NOT!

obviously they just need to bring back as much of the original cast as they can & forget about the "new 90210" because we really want to see the original "group" reunited

It's great that Shannen Doherty will be starring on the 90210 Spin-Off, reprising her role as Brenda Walsh, where this time, she'll be a guest director for the school's musical production, etc.

They should just call the show something else because it will never be the original 90210 ever. Maybe a few originals are on it but the whole other cast looks like a joke it is a totally different show than before. Stick to the reruns.

I wonder if she finally learned her lesson on being such a diva, dissing her fans, horrid behavior to her coworkers. I hope she did learn her lesson that no on not even Ms. Diva here is indispensible. For her sake I hope she did.

Brenda was my favorite character on the original 90210. She may have been the witchy character, but she was also the most entertaining one, at least for me. Just look at all the other characters, they didn't get interesting until they did something wrong (like how basically everyone on the show ended up with a drug and alcohol problem and how they all slept with one another, and I mean the characters of course, not the actual actors). I'll definitely tune in to see Shannen. She's a very good actress and I think people forget that because all they remember is her tumultuous teen/twentysomething years. Now she's a grown woman and I'm sure the drama is over with, and she can just be the great actress she always has been.
