Let’s talk about money, honey! With BH90210 lighting up the summer ratings charts, fans were quick to assume the cast was raking in the big bucks. But guess what? That’s not entirely the case. More than a week after the much-anticipated quasi-revival of Beverly Hills, 90210 premiered on August 7, we finally know how much these beloved actors are pocketing per episode. Let’s dive in and break it down, shall we?
Who’s Making What?
According to a source who spilled the tea to The Hollywood Reporter, each member of the BH90210 cast—yes, that includes Tori Spelling, Jennie Garth, Gabrielle Carteris, Shannen Doherty, Jason Priestley, Brian Austin Green, and Ian Ziering—is earning a cool $70,000 per episode. Now, that’s a pretty impressive paycheck for most of us, but let’s put it into perspective, shall we? This isn’t exactly "A-list movie star" money, but hey, it’s still a nice chunk of change for a six-episode run.
Extra Perks for the Power Players
Now here’s where it gets interesting. Tori Spelling, 46, and Jennie Garth, 47—better known as Donna Martin and Kelly Taylor from the original '90s series—are raking in an extra $15,000 per episode. Why, you ask? Because they were instrumental in creating this fresh take on the classic show alongside Mike Chessler and Chris Alberghini. And let’s not forget Ian Ziering, who not only reprises his role as Steve Sanders but also earns an additional $46,000 for directing one of the episodes. That’s the standard rate for the Directors Guild of America, by the way.

With the series set to run for six episodes, the base salary for the cast comes out to a tidy $420,000 each. But thanks to their extra contributions, Tori and Jennie are taking home a grand total of $510,000 each, while Ian is banking $466,000. Not too shabby, right?
