close“Beverly Hills, 90210” heartthrob Luke Perry will make an appearance at the Paso Robles Digital Film Festival this weekend, festival founder Benford Stanley announced.
Perry will be on hand Friday night to promote the documentary “The Challenge of Champions: The Story of Lane Frost and Red Rock,” about the famed PRCA World Champion bullrider. He portrayed Frost in the 1994 movie “8 Seconds.”
“If all the girls here hear Luke Perry’s coming, we could have a riot,” joked Stanley. “He’s a great guy. He really is.”
