Doherty played good girl Brenda Walsh on the 1990s teen soap opera. Doherty's "90210" co-stars Tori Spelling and Jennie Garth have already signed on to reprise their roles in the new version of the show, to air soon on The CW network.

EW.com cited unnamed sources who said Gabe Sachs and Jeff Judah, the producers of the new series, recently met with Doherty to gauge her interest in playing Brenda again.

Doherty reportedly was fired from the original show in 1994 because she was difficult to work with.

EW.com said its sources say she is interested in appearing on the new show. However, one insider said, "But she wants to know what the story is going to be first." She also wants more money than the show's producers apparently are offering, the report said.

"This is a win-win for all parties," a "90210" insider noted. "Shannen has a shot to get back in the public eye and make things right with the show that gave her her career, and The CW can generate some much-needed buzz and guarantee some major sampling of '90210.'"
