“Shannen was great,” Gail said on the Beverly Hills 90210 Show Podcast in 2021. “We got along great and we had a really good relationship. We talked about the scenes, we worked on them and it was fun.”
On series alumni Tori Spelling and Jennie Garth‘s 90210MG podcast last April, Gail also recalled filming scenes with Doherty. “I remember the first kiss we had on set,” he said. “The kiss was great but I was so nervous.”
Gail also spoke about the kindness shown to him on set by the cast members, noting that Perry was “very nice.”
After ending his multiple episode arc on Beverly Hills, 90210, Gail went on to play Dean Collins on the drama series Savannah in the mid-90s. He was later cast as Dr. Joe Scanlon on Port Charles, starring on the soap opera between 1999 and 2000. Stints on shows such as ER and JAG followed.
The actor appeared in a few movies, such as the 2002 rom-com Bending All the Rules with Bradley Cooper and Colleen Porch. Gail’s last onscreen role was in the 2008 horror film The Belly of the Beast and his last acting credit was a voiceover role in the video game Blacksad: Under the Skin, released in 2019.
The cause of Gail’s death and memorial plans were not released.
