Trevor Donovan joined the cast of 90210 the recurring role of pro-tennis player Teddy Montgomery. Teddy is the son of a famous movie 별, 스타 and is used to getting whatever, and whoever, he wants. Teddy returned to West Beverly in the season premiere after having spent time abroad.
Donovan, a former Abercrombie Model, was raised in Mammoth, California. The actor ventured into 연기 a few years ago. His credits include the new Bruce Willis film, "Surrogates,"and a contract role on NBC's "Days of Our Lives," as resident bad boy Jeremy Horton. Trevor also raced on the ski/snowboard team on mammoth mountain and is a semi pro surfer. Trevor takes his surfboard to work with him and, often times before 또는 after work, jumps in the ocean for a surf session.
Soap Opera Source: Were 당신 a 팬 of the original 90210?
Trevor Donovan: Very much so, I grew up watching it. Actually they came up to my hometown and shot an episode up there. I got to kind of hang around and be an extra on set, be up on a ski lift and stuff. It's pretty cool being on the show now.
SOS: Did 당신 watch the new series before 당신 became a cast member?
TD: Yeah I was checking it out now and then. I watched, but mainly revisited it during the last several episodes of the first season, which in my opinion really started tightening up and made for some interesting storylines and cliffhangers to start off the 초 season.
SOS: Did 당신 audition for the role 또는 did they call you?
TD: I originally went in to audition for a very small 2 line role for one episode and after that audition, which went really well, the casting director asked me if I would mind doing a cold read for this role, Teddy Montgomery, because they were having somewhat of a difficult time finding the correct fit. It was kind of a last 분 thing and it seemed to have gone pretty well because here I am! [Laughs]
SOS: Can 당신 tell us a little about Teddy Montgomery? What's he like?
TD: Teddy is the son of a two time Oscar winning actor. He grew up very affluent, with somewhat a silver spoon in his mouth, although does not exude any sort of pretentiousness at all. He's a very affable, very friendly guy -- very welcoming, somewhat mature beyond his years because he did grow up around adults in the entertainment industry. He's somewhat of an old soul, 더 많이 mature in some respects. He’s a new student at school, a pro 테니스 player and semi-pro surfer as well. He's very active; bringing in sort of an extreme Southern California vibe --lots of skin showing, lots of scenes on the beach. It's gonna be cool.
SOS: Are there any similarities between 당신 and Teddy? What are they?/[b]
TD: In my opinion there's a lot. He's one who definitely loves life. Always has a smile on his face, and loves being outdoors, loves being athletic. Those are all of the things I really 사랑 and have loved my whole life. He loves interacting with people, all of those things kind of 십자가, 크로스 over smoothly into my personal life too.
[b]SOS: Do 당신 know if there's going to be a 사랑 interest for Teddy? This is 90210 당신 know.
TD: There is a little past -- a little history between my character and the character of Adrianna played 의해 Jessica Lowndes. So there'll be a little bit of tension. Like I said Teddy's gets along with everyone so well, and being the new kid at school, he's already attracting the attention of various female students. There's going to be all sorts of interesting scenarios created throughout the year's storyline.
SOS: How many episodes have 당신 filmed so far? Do 당신 know how many you're expected to be in?
TD: I have filmed 6 so far. I just show up to set and do my job and just enjoy the time that I have. We'll see. Everything seems to be going really well. I have my fingers crossed. I hope the 팬 사랑 it as much as I do.
SOS: 팬 of 90210 who watch soaps might remember 당신 from your time on 'Days of Our Lives' as Jeremy Horton. Did 당신 enjoy working in daytime? How has it helped 당신 with your new role?
TD: I did. It was my first real big 작살, 공연 and so it was a bit nerve-wracking and everything, but it was a great learning experience. It was kind of like an "acting boot camp" because of the amount of dialog and stuff that I had to memorize every night and how prepared I had to be every day. It really felt like I was being thrown into the mix. It paid off immensely not only for helping me with my auditioning techniques, but also my 연기 in general. So being on this set, I'm a little 더 많이 comfortable now. I'm starting to feel 더 많이 comfortable in my own skin and I'm ready to keep working.
SOS: What are 당신 looking 앞으로 to most this season?
TD: I'm looking 앞으로 to.....staying on this show throughout the entire season [Laughs]. Right now I'm going week 의해 week, episode 의해 episode. I'm just looking 앞으로 to the 다음 일 at work. I just 사랑 it. It's so much fun to get paid to play, to get paid to do what I 사랑 to do.
