It’s uncertain if his character will remain part of the series, he said.
“The coin’s in the air for me,” Tata told The Associated Press. “I guess it comes under the heading of magic test: Let’s see if the audience still remembers me.”
The drama about two high schoolers from the Midwest who move to California and enroll in West Beverly Hills High School debuts Sept. 2.
Other alumni of the first “90210″ appearing on the CW show are Jennie Garth, whose character of Kelly Taylor has become a high school guidance counselor, and Tori Spelling as Donna Martin.
Garth (”Dancing with the Stars”) will be in several episodes, while Spelling is set for one episode so far, the CW said.
Shannen Doherty reportedly is in talks to return as Brenda Walsh. The network declined to comment on Doherty.
