Hilary Duff to Star in New 90210?

According to E! Online, Hilary Duff has been offered a role in a new version of the hit TV show Beverly Hills, 90210:

Step aside, Shannen Doherty. Hilary Duff just might be the new face of Beverly Hills, 90210.

Sources connected to the series tell me exclusively that producers for the CW's 90210 remake have reached out to Hilary to offer her a starring role in the series.

No word yet on whether she is interested in the role, and at press time, we have not received comment from reps for the CW or Hilary.

According to sources, Hilary's potential character is that of Annie Mills. As I reported last month, Annie is a Beverly Hills High student who is into theater acting, just like her predecessor. But instead of Color Me Badd, she’s listening to emo bands. She yearns to fit in with the alternative crowd and leans a lot on her adopted brother, Dixon, too.

She likes to be on stage, and she's cute as a button...sounds like a perfect match for Hilary, no?

I really don't think Hilary is going to take this role. It just doesn't make much sense for her to do a TV show like this when she is still fairly successful in music and movies. If she were going to do a TV show, I don't think she'd choose to do a spin off of one of the most made fun of shows of all time.
