Sprightly actress Heather Locklear will be reprising her role as ad executive Amanda Woodward on the CW’s Melrose Place.

According to People the 47-year-old TV queen, who famously participated in the original show until it went off the air in 1999, was originally asked to join the new ensemble last month, though nothing was officially nailed down until today.

“We’re ecstatic to have the chance to bring Amanda Woodward back to Melrose Place,” executive producers Darren Swimmer and Todd Slavkin released in a statement. “Heather’s involvement in the show is something we’ve been working on for some time as we couldn’t imagine creating and producing this show without the iconic character’s inclusion.”
