HuffPost
The reboot picks up with a classic soap opera trope — somebody’s untimely death — and sees our trio of core characters reunite.
“Melrose Place” might soon return to television — a quarter century after its finale.
The popular soap opera was initially created by Darren Star as a “Beverly Hills, 90210” spinoff, but quickly became primetime viewing of its own. While the Fox series ended in 1999, executives are eager to bring it back — and already have some stars attached.
Deadline reported Wednesday that original cast members Heather Locklear, Laura Leighton and Daphne Zuniga are returning for a reboot, which is being developed at CBS Studios and already being shopped around to legacy networks and streaming platforms.
According to an official synopsis shared with Deadline, the reboot picks up with a classic soap opera trope — somebody’s untimely death — and sees our trio of core characters reunite in the titular Los Angeles neighborhood to mourn their mutual loss.
“The pressure cooker of a reunion soon uncovers old traumas, rekindles old romances, reignites old resentments, and reveals new secrets… throwing our characters into chaotic drama that’s reminiscent of the past,” it adds, “but with a much more modern perspective.”
