Hilary Turns Down 90210

As I predicted, Hilary Duff has decided not to take a role in the new version of Beverly Hills: 90210.

From E! Online:

Just an update on the news we broke last week that Hilary Duff was offered a role on the Beverly Hills, 90210 remake for the CW.

Sources close to the show tell me that Duff has passed on the role of Annie Mills, and it has been given to Shenae Grimes (Degrassi: The Next Generation). Lori Loughlin will play her mom and they will be a fresh arrival to the famous zip code from Kansas.

According to sources, Duff turned down the 90210 offer because she is looking for projects that are outside of the teen genre in order to expand her image.
