Variety has the details of the planned Beverly Hills 90210 spinoff.
The yet-to-be greenlit show will supposedly have much more racial diversity than the original lily-white cast, because were so much more enlightened today. Probably meaning two characters might not be white.

The spin-off revolves around The Mills family including their matriarch, Tabitha Mills. She’s described as a 60-something actress/alchoholic who was a major star in the 1970. This is perfect for Gabrielle Carteris! After her latest bout at rehab, Tabitha decides to try to live on her own in her BH estate. Other characters include:

Do-gooder son Harry Mills - A 1980s graduate of West Beverly High. He moves back to BH after years in St. Louis to help out his mom.
Celia - His Olympic athlete wife
Annie - Their 16-year-old daughter
Dixon - Their adopted son and resident bad boy (producers are open to casting a non-white here)
Daphne Silver - A wannabe teen socialite
Max Silver - Her 24-year-old working man brother
Navid Shirazi - Middle Eastern High School nerd
Ethan Ward - The likable jock
Naomi Bennett - Ethan’s ultra-rich ex-girlfriend that appears to be a brat but will end up having more layers.

There might also be a part for David Silver aka Brian Austin Green given the character breakdown mentions two characters with the last name Silver.
