Luke Perry's Last Connection To The 'BH90210' Reboot

Before Luke Perry tragically passed away at the age of 52 on March 4, just days after suffering a massive stroke, he was asked to join the cast of the highly anticipated Beverly Hills, 90210 reboot, BH90210. Although his demanding schedule on Riverdale made it impossible for him to participate, his co-stars Tori Spelling and Jennie Garth revealed that the late actor was genuinely excited about his friends reuniting for one final season.

“Luke was actually on speakerphone during our very first meeting,” Tori shared with People. “He was incredibly supportive and genuinely proud that we were bringing the show back together.”
