Cheers to Luke Perry for his image-changing guest shot as a wacko cult leader on Criminal Minds. Ever since Dylan McKay's heyday on Beverly Hills, 90210, Perry has been trying to shed his junior-James Dean mantle by playing real bad boys — witness his term as a convict on Oz or his recent spot as a serial rapist on Law & Order: Special Victims Unit. His deeply creepy turn as Benjamin Cyrus, a Colorado polygamist who takes Agents Reid (Matthew Gray Gubler) and Prentiss (Paget Brewster) hostage during a stand-off, may finally do the trick.
With juicy roles like this one, it’s no wonder Perry has so far resisted the temptation to strap on the old sideburns and return to the new-and-unimproved 90210, despite Dylan's status as Kelly’s alleged babydaddy. Stay strong, Luke!

Despite having his name prominently dropped in the latest episode of 90210 — "You’re still in love with Dylan," Brenda said, referring to the father of Kelly's son — Luke Perry is impressively sticking to his guns and fending off any offer to guest-star on the CW reboot. During a conference call to promote his appearance on Law & Order: Special Victims Unit's Sept. 23 season premiere, Perry was asked if he would be appearing on 90210, especially given the aforementioned mention of Dylan. "They own the name and likeness," he (presumably) shrugged. Pressed to clarify his stance, he stated simply, "That would be a no."That rebuff is in keeping with what Perry told TVGuide.com (in this video, at the 3:30 mark) more than two months ago. "When you're in the professional acting business, you have to look at all offers, but.... creatively, [playing Dylan] is something I've done before and I don’t know that I'd benefit from going back and doing it again," he maintain...

Luke Perry, out promoting Hallmark Channel's A Gunfighter's Pledge (premiering Saturday at 9 pm/ET), stopped by on Thursday to shoot an on-camera Q&A with me. In addition to covering his turn as an Old West lawman, we of course talked about the new 90210 being put together by the CW. "It's that 90210 time of year," Luke joked on our walk into the video studio.Earlier this week, Perry went on record as saying he won't be reprising his role of Dylan for 90210. In this video, he goes into some detail as to why not, explaining that the CW revisiting his former series is not the same as Aaron Spelling himself doing it.I also asked Luke for his take on the report that Shannen Doherty is open to an encore, as Brenda. Did that news surprise him? "Nope, nope," he said. "I think if Shannen wants to work, that's a good a place for her."Watch the complete interview below. — Matt MitovichMore News-0210:• Luke Perry Says No to 90210 Nuevo • Spelling's 90210 Reprise Hits a Baby...

Luke Perry will not strap on the old squint-and-sideburns again to appear on the CW's 90210 spin-off/remake/co-branding. "I can't re-imagine it currently," the erstwhile Dylan McKay quipped in an interview with Billy Bush on his radio show.Perry's former West Bev cohorts Jennie Garth and Tori Spelling have signed on to reprise their roles on the new show, and Jason Priestley may end up behind the camera directing an ep or two. You have to assume that, if the producers asked, Ian Ziering, Brian Austin Green, and/or Tiffani Thiessen would stop by the new Peach Pit for a bite. But, for me, the real "get" would be a Shannen Doherty-Luke Perry twofer. Wouldn't it be awesome to have those two show up — straight from London or wherever they shipped Brenda off to — newly married and shoving their contemptuous passion in Kelly's smug face? I bet Kelly wouldn't "choose me" then! But no. It seems that Perry won't be tempted by Kelly Taylor's siren song again: "It's just not something...
