Heather Locklear: Back to “Melrose Place” Tue, 22-Sep-2009
Coming as a pleasant announcement, Heather Locklear will be returning to "Melrose Place".
The 47-year-old will take the vixen role of Amanda Woodward on the new CW version of the show, making her appearance on Nov. 17.
"We're ecstatic to have the chance to bring Amanda Woodward back to Melrose Place," executive producers Todd Slavkin & Darren Swimmer said in a statement. "Heather's involvement in the show is something we've been working on for some time as we couldn't imagine creating and producing this show without the iconic character's inclusion."
One insider spilled that Locklear saw a pilot of the show and "was surprised at how much she liked it."
Adding on, the source says her role is "a great comeback" for Locklear who recently had a DUI charge that was dropped and took treatment for anxiety last year.
"She is in great spirits and good shape. This is a perfect time to show everyone how well she is doing," the source tells.
Details have kept quiet about Locklear's role, but Josie Bissett, Thomas Calabro, Laura Leighton and Daphne Zuniga are all joining her back on the show. |
