David Arquette is recalling working with some late legends. On the latest episode of Watch What Happens Live , the 52-year-old actor revealed that he once had a guest spot on Beverly Hills, 90210 , during which he acted alongside Shannen Doherty and Luke Perry . "I played Diesel Stone, the lead singer of Waste Management," Arquette recalled with a laugh of his 1992 appearance.
"I was supposed to play drums and I showed up and the guy said, 'Oh, well we got a drummer.' So they gave me a keytar. I got to play a keytar.
" On a more serious note, Arquette reminisced, "I got to work with Luke Perry, who I loved, and Shannen, she was amazing." "Just being on that set and part of that whole world was really wild," he added of the experience. Perry, who played Dylan McKay on the teen soap, died in March 2019 after suffering a massive stroke.
He was 52. As for Doherty, the actress behind Brenda Walsh, died after a cancer battle in July 2024. She was 53.
Following Doherty's death, Perry's daughter, 24-year-old Sophie Perry, honored the actress with a post on her Instagram Story, sharing a throwback photo of the former co-stars. In the sepia-toned shot, the actors are all glammed up and flashing huge smiles as Perry playfully holds Doherty's necklace between his teeth. She added a simple white heart emoji to her post.
Doherty's 90210 castmates were quick to post tributes to her, including Gabrielle Carteris, who mentioned Perry in her post. "So young - so sad. May you RIP Shannon," Carte.
