Luke Perry’s Death Led To ‘90210’ Cast Reunion, Brian Austin Green Says

Following the recent sudden death of actor Luke Perry, a group of Perry’s co-stars on Beverly Hills 90210 got together to remember their late friend.

Brian Austin Green, who played David Silver on the popular 1990s show, revealed on a recent episode of his podcast (per Page Six) that the former 90210 actors recently gathered at Gabrielle Carteris’ house in honor of Perry.

Green did not say who attended.

Green eventually said on an earlier episode of his podcast, per The Hollywood Reporter, that “everyone grieves in different ways” and that “everyone should respect everyone’s process.” He also revealed that he had sent a text to Perry following the actor’s death.
