Mario Lopez and Elizabeth Berkley are having a blast from the past!
The former Saved by the Bell stars, who are slated to appear in the upcoming revival of the ’90s sitcom, shared with fans on Friday that they’ve just finished shooting a promo for the reboot.
The two stars teased what’s to come — including the reappearance of some classic characters from the show — in a behind-the-scene video taken from set and posted to Lopez’s Instagram.
In the clip, Lopez, 46, and Berkley, 47, can be seen sitting around a table inside the iconic The Max diner, where their characters hung out in the original series.
“We just shot our first scene — well, not really our first scene. It was like a promo,” Lopez shares.
