Image Credit: Paul Redmond/WireImage.com90210 has procured a fresh slab of beefcake for its upcoming third season.
Former soap star Blair Redford — probably best known as the third Miguel on NBC’s defunct Passions — is joining the CW soap in a major recurring role, sources confirm to me exclusively. And what role would that be? Keep reading for the deets…
Redford will play Oscar, a handsome, charismatic, and charming Brit that a show insider describes as “one part Talented Mr. Ripley, one part young Johnny Depp, and all parts sexy.” But don’t be fooled. Oscar, who moves in with Ivy and her mom, is trouble with a capital “T” that rhymes with “P” that stands for pot stirrer.
This isn’t Redford’s first brush with The CW. The actor had a role in the network’s ill-fated drama pilot Betwixt.
90210‘s third season (and first on Monday night!) premieres on Sept. 13.

first..
wut.
you stoopid. wut.
Jesse Metcalfe will always be my Miguel.
Mine too!
absolutely same here….
It was Passions, you guys. Seriously?
SERIOUSLY why not a special premier on 9-02-10?
holy cow- that would be great! I’m sure TPTB have not yet realized this. what a great promotional oppertunity
That would be GENIUS!
OMG! that is sooo funny!!! good idea!!!
A) I highly doubt it would encourage anyone who doesn’t already watch the show to tune in, and B) it’s a Thursday. Surely I don’t have to go all tv-exec and explain why that’s a bad idea?
Topher you should petition the CW for that … cool idea
I am trying to but no one is joining the call! I even tweeted it to Michael Ausiello and he ignored me.
Plus, it’s the 20th anniversary of the original 90210 this fall. SOMEONE should take advantage of that as well as the 9-02-10 date. (Not that the new showrunners give a crap about the original, of course.)
Maybe Soap Net will.
female
He’s hot? If you like goons I guess …
my thoughts exactly.
Oh boy
I’ve never heard of him before, but I like what I see so far!
I miss Passions. Don’t judge me.
Am I the only one who thinks he’s the missing Affleck brother?
Not cute.
a lot of circus dances jumping around spinning on head. just sign up at baqrnum and bailey…DID NOT CARE FOR THE SOAP OPERA AWARDS WHAT DID THE LION DO FOR SOAPS. THERE COUSTOMS WERE UGLY AND THAT WAS A KIDS SHOW.
