Shannen Doherty On 'Riverdale' Season 4 Luke Perry Tribute: 'I Bawled My Eyes Out'

Shannen Doherty keeps it cool and casual while making her way inside the Good Morning America studios on Monday morning (August 5) in New York City.

During her interview, the 48-year-old actress, who co-starred with Luke Perry on Beverly Hills, 90210, opened up about guest starring in the CW’s season 4 premiere of Riverdale.

“I can tell you that I read the script and I bawled my eyes out,” Shannen revealed. “I’m so beyond honored that they asked me to do this and Luke had been wanting me to join Riverdale for a really long time. It’s a beautiful episode that is nothing but a tribute to his character and to Luke himself.”

Shannen Doherty also talked about her return on the teen drama after the death of Luke Perry: “I just felt like we created so much together on 90210, our characters and our relationship, that love between the two of us…it felt like the right thing to go back and do a show that I know meant so much to him,” she said. “It was surreal, all of us together again and sort of realizing that you’re missing a key component, you’re missing some heart. Luke was all heart and all humility and beauty and grace and humor and just grounding, earthy human being. So, he was missed sorely for sure.”

That same morning, Shannen‘s co-stars Jennie Garth and Tori Spelling were spotted arriving at the Today show studios.

BH 90210 will premiere on Wednesday, August 7 at 9pm ET on Fox!
