Two years before Shannen Doherty was Brenda Walsh on Beverly Hills, 90210, she was a Heather in Heathers. Now, nearly 30 years later, she is returning to Sherwood, Ohio, for
TV Land’s remake of the cult classic.
Today, the actress Instagrammed that photo and said, “Sneak peek from the #Heathers set….. jealous much?” We like totally are.
So what exactly is she doing in the pilot that is filming now? TV Land says, “she will portray a pivotal, unnamed character.” Here’s what else we know, the small screen version will take place in modern day and “our heroine Veronica deals with a very different but equally vicious group of Heathers.”
Another thing to add to that list is that Doherty looks great in the role as she continues to battle cancer. You would never guess she is getting ready to start radiation from looking at her here and that is very encouraging. Plus, it is great to see her back in a place we have been waiting to see her in for a very long time.
When it comes to who else from the 1988 movie will be part of the reboot, we don’t know just yet. Hopefully, Christian Slater aka J.D. and Wynona Ryder aka Veronica will be back to take on the Heathers in some way.
Another thing we don’t know yet is if this show will be picked up to series; but from this picture, I am assuming it will be joining Younger, Impastor and Teachers on their lineup sometime next year.
Are you excited for Heathers?
