Former Beverly Hills, 90210 star Luke Perry has denied reports he is reconsidering a return to the show's new spin-off after initially rejecting a role.

The 41-year-old actor, who played bad boy Dylan McKay in the original teen hit, passed up an offer to join his former cast mates Jennie Garth and Shannen Doherty in the new series in June. However Perry has been rumored to be returning to the show - appearing as the father of Garth's new TV son - but he insists there is no truth to the claims.

His spokesperson Arnold Robinson tells WENN: "This story is not true. Luke is not appearing on the show."

The actor initially explained his decision to not take part in the program: "I can't re-imagine it currently. It's just not something that I've thought about to be quite honest, I don't see it happening."

I've never been a big fan of his (except back in the original 90210 days), but I admire him for not wanting to redo what he's already done. You know that once this series starts, older viewers who remember the original are just going to compare the two.

And the older viewers will complain about not seeing enough of Jennie and Shannen.
