Katie Cassidy Joins "Melrose Place 2.0"

Former "Supernatural" star Katie Cassidy (and daughter of David Cassidy) has joined the upcoming CW redux of FOX's crazy 90s bed-hopping drama "Melrose Place."

According to Variety, Cassidy will fill the role of Ella, a stylish up-and-coming publicist.

The producers are pursuing stars of the original show, namely Heather Locklear, in an attempt to match the success (by modest CW standards) of their "90210" series.
