Shortly after the season 33 cast was announced, Spelling exclusively told PEOPLE thatGreen inspired her to join the series.

“Brian Austin Green has known the whole time since I got that phone call,” she shared. “So that whole time I was like, ‘I don’t know if I should do or shouldn’t do it,’ but he was like, ‘You will be amazing, you need to do this.’”

During the 90s Con panel,the four actors also paid tributeto their late costar,Shannen Doherty. The group publicly reunited just two months after Doherty died on July 13, nearly a decade after she was diagnosed with cancer. She was 53.

Green remembered hislongtime friend’s “incredibly brave” and “difficult” cancer journey. “She’s to me an amazing example for everyone of [how] she put her own challenges and her own health things aside and really wanted to share with everyone the experience of all of it, and it was incredibly brave,” he said. “Going through something as difficult as that and being open to being completely transparent and sharing with everyone is brave.”

Carteris remarked on how the actress became an inspiration to people in her own life. “I have a friend right now who is really sick with cancer, and she said that Shannen really inspired her,” she said. “I think that her legacy is truly making a difference for those who are struggling to know that there’s hope.”
