LOS ANGELES, Calif. -- Brandon and Brenda aren't done with "90210" just yet. Beverly Hills' most famous twins will return to the hit CW show, one behind the camera and the other in front.

A rep for The CW confirmed to Access Hollywood that Jason Priestley will direct an episode of the new "90210."

This is not Jason's first time sitting in the director's chair. He directed 18 episodes of the original "Beverly Hills 90210."

And while he might be directing, don't expect Jason to be growing out those trademark Brandon sideburns anytime soon.

"I think I sort of ran the gamut with Brandon - 249 episodes," Jason told Access in June. "I think Brandon did his time."

Walsh family fanatics will find some solace in the news that Shannen Doherty is talks to return to "90210" for more episodes, the CW rep also confirmed to Access.

Entertainment Weekly's Michael Ausiello reports that Shannen will do new two episodes.

And will Jason be directing his former onscreen sister?

"I think it would be a kick for Jason to work with any of his [former '90210' costars], and it would also add something special to that episode," Executive producer Gabe Sachs told EW. "But we don't know whether that will happen yet."

    If you'll don't like the new 90210 then don't watch it. no one is twisting your arm. As far as Shannon D. She is still a hottie like she was on Charmed.

    Em I the only one that want's Brenda back for good? I know Shannen Doherty might be a %@!*# in real life but she really can act. I wish they just sigh a deal with her and have her do the whole show.

    I don't think Shannen is a brainwashed Republican, she's a smart Republican. What does that have to do w/anything anyway. Christinne R I guess your a dumba** Democrat

    I agree, it's done, over, give it a fiew weeks and it'll go on hiatus, and there it'll remain. Shannan D. mebe shoulden't have been so pissy to so many powerfull people in the industry, because now theres no work for Her. So I would say she looks somewhat desperate for all this to work. Mortgage to pay you know, and little prospect of doing so. Just My observations.
