Tata). Producers all promised that the roles will be recurring and not just random special cameos and refused to divulge any specifics.The 90210 showrunners Gabe Sachs and Jeff Judah, (Freaks and Geeks), spoke about the need to steer away from the obvious soap aspects and focus instead on elevating the storytelling.The producers alluded that Jessica Stroup's character, named Silver, may somehow be connected to David Silver (Brian Austin Green) from the original series, only saying we would know the answer to that by the end of the pilot.
