An ex-TeenNick star is headed to the most drama-filled zip code on TV.
Former Gigantic star Ryan Rottman (left, yum) will appear in next season of 90210, EW has learned.
Rottman, whose other credits include a guest spot on Greek and Nickelodeon’s Victorious, will play Shane, a smart, handsome gay 20-something who is confident in his identity and is committed to fighting for marriage equality.
Hmmm, sounds like he’d be a perfect new friend for Teddy. Am I right?
The new season of 90210 kicks off Tuesday, Sept. 13.

I thought Teddy was being written out. Isn’t that happening anymore?
Actually, we may all be wrong. Just because there is a new actor playing a gay character on 90210 doesn’t mean Teddy ISN’T still being written out. The mention of Teddy in the article was purely speculation on the writer’s part. Maybe he’s just being replaced, so to speak.
Who is this guy don’t recognize him well he will now be known as the 90210 guy that hooked up with Teddy for one episode.
This is the creepy guy Victoria Justice is dating
that would suck so much. Teddy is the best this guy sux
They replacing Teddy with this creepo? Very Sad
this jerk is the new role model? he’s a criminal! bad choice yet again CW
Hum, that means Teddy’s staying ?
Yeah, I thought Teddy was leaving this season as well. I figured he’d only be in the premiere, but maybe he’s in the first few?
He’s been confirmed for the first 5 episodes. This could be his exit storyline.

Totally confused by this as I was under the impression that Teddy was a goner. Could this be a scoop within a scoop?
Yeah, Teddy is leaving but they said they would give him a proper send off with 4 or 5 episodes. They will probably meet, fall in love, and run off to New York or somewhere else for a legal marriage or something similar.
Teddy will be in AT LEAST the firs five episodes or so. With the purpose of coming out to his family. I wouldn’t mind AT ALL if this guy replaced him, seems like the producers want a younger guy to pull of a teenager role. And damn, why not, hes delicious.
Wait, Teddy’s leaving? No! I love Teddy! Am I the last to know?
Um, maybe he is REPLACING Teddy since they need at least one gay person on the show.
much rather Teddy
arent Teddy n Marco still together at the end of the previous season.. can they at least keep this 2nd couple..
The actor who plays Marco isn’t returning to the new season, so they will have most likely broken up over the summer.
This guy is a total sleeze bag, he was just arrested for a DUI. Nobody will ever be as awesome as our TEDDY !!!!
hate this guy. Nickelodeon douche. Get should of got rid of ivy or navid instead of teddy nobody gives a crap about them
Ug! creepy guy. Teddy is so sweet and this guy playing shane looks like he needs a shower and is drunk
I love me some Trevor booty. I watch this white folk show cuz I love Teddy juicy lips and big ol butt. Who’s this fool they replacing Teddy wit? Oh hell NO you aint! This show be trippin. Trevor Donovan must be my man
Ewwww Next. He’s that guy from the shady DUI arrest on TMZ
never found Ryan appealing although I only saw him on Victorious. Either way I don’t support people who drive drunk.
