Conspiracy Theory: Ryan Rottman Is Trevor Donovan’s Replacement on 90210, Not His Love Interest

Conspiracy Theory: Ryan Rottman Is Trevor Donovan's Replacement on 90210, Not His Love Interest

Or to clarify, not just his love interest. EW just announced that Ryan Rottman, from TeenNick’s “celebrity offspring” drama Gigantic, is heading to West Bev this fall. He’ll play Shane, a twentysomething guy “who is confident in his identity” and whose big conflict will be pushing for marriage equality.

People are assuming that he’ll be Teddy’s new fling and will inspire the younger guy (who came out last season) to stand up for gay rights. But I think that Ryan’s character serves another purpose: Helping Trevor Donovan to transition off the show. More »

Trevor Donovan Downgrades from ’90210′ to Playing a Ken Doll

Trevor Donovan Downgrades from '90210' to Playing a Ken Doll

It still doesn’t make sense that Trevor Donovan is leaving 90210 after he had the show’s most compelling plotline last year: Tennis pro and playboy Teddy came out of the closet in storylines that were shocking and realistically awkward. So far, the only thing Donovan has said about his post-90210 career is that he’s looking forward to “opportunities and adventures.” But if the rumors are true that he’s in the running to play Barbie’s beau Ken in a live-action movie, then quitting the show for movie roles like this seems like a poor career choice.

Trevor Donovan Not Returning to '90210' -- How Will They Write Teddy Off?

Despite being at the center of 90210‘s high-profile gay plotline this past season, Trevor Donovan (who plays tennis star Teddy Montgomery) will not be returning as a regular for season 4. However, that doesn’t mean that he’s entirely left the West Bev world: An insider assures fans that Donovan will appear in about five episodes this fall, likely to try and give Teddy a proper sendoff.

Interview: ’90210′ Star Freddie Smith on Marco/Teddy and Twitter Spoilers

Interview: '90210' Star Freddie Smith on Marco/Teddy and Twitter Spoilers

Ohio native Freddie Smith turned to acting when he broke his hand in high school. A lifelong basketball and baseball player, he swiftly changed tacks by getting a job at McDonald’s and working for a year so that he’d be able to save up enough to move to Los Angeles. That, coupled with the fact that he drove cross-country to his new home, makes it no surprise that Smith found his big break on 90210 by playing Marco, the sweet, genuine new boyfriend to recently-outed Teddy (Trevor Donovan).

Prom King and Queen Is a Non-Issue for ’90210′

Prom King and Queen Is a Non-Issue for '90210'

When Glee extra Nicole Crowther spoiled the identity of the prom king and queen on Twitter a few weeks ago, producer Brad Falchuk (and, we might imagine, Fox) was livid. In contrast, The CW was happy to reveal ahead of time who made prom king and queen for next week’s episode of 90210.

In the above promo pic, Naomi (Anna-Lynn McCord), sporting a sparkly tiara, places an equally regal crown on Teddy’s (Trevor Donovan)’s head. I think it’s safe to assume what’s going on here. More »
