Riverdale star Luke Perry has been hospitalized after suffering a stroke, according to TMZ.

The 52-year-old actor was rushed to a hospital Wednesday morning after paramedics arrived at his Sherman Oaks home.

A spokesman for the actor said, "Mr. Perry is currently under observation at the hospital."

No other info about his condition is known at this time.

On the same day of his hospitalization, a reboot of his 1990s show, Beverly Hills, 90210 was announced.

According to TVLine, the kind-of reboot/revival of 90210 will air on Fox this summer.

Calling it a six-episode “event series,” six of the original cast members (Jason Priestley, Jennie Garth, Ian Ziering, Gabrielle Carteris, Brian Austin Green and Tori Spelling) will return with the actors playing "heightened versions of themselves inspired by their real lives and relationships."

The official logline reads:

“Having gone their separate ways since the original series ended 19 years ago, Jason, Jennie, Ian, Gabrielle, Brian and Tori reunite when one of them suggests it’s time to get a Beverly Hills, 90210 reboot up and running. But getting it going may make for an even more delicious soap than the reboot itself. What will happen when first loves, old romances, friends and frenemies come back together, as this iconic cast – whom the whole world watched grow up together – attempts to continue from where they left off?”



While he initially found fame playing 'Dylan McKay' on the ‘90s hit series, Perry was not announced for the revival.

His Beverly Hills 90210 co-stars Ian Ziering & Shannen Doherty sent best wishes to Perry this morning on social media after hearing the news of his stroke.
