Rider Strong (far left) played Cory’s best friend Shawn on the 90’s hit show Boy Meets World. Ever since news hit that the show will be getting a spin-off on the Disney Channel, people have been wondering who from the original cast will be joining. Both Cory (Ben Savage) and Topanga (Danielle Fishel) have officially signed on to reprise their roles, but there’s been no other information released in regards to the other stars like big brother Eric (Will Friedel), the neighbor/principal Mr. Feeny (William Daniels…who’s got to be old as HECK now, LOL) and of course, Shawn. Of the latter, however, TMZ finally got their hands on an official statement from Rider regarding his involvement. Will he be on the show? Find out below!

Rider Strong on Boy Meets World’s “Girl Meets World” spin-off:

“At this point, I have no official involvement. There might be a chance to see some of the BMW cast in a guest spot, and I think it would be nice to find out where our characters have been all these years. But Girl Meets World will be, and I think it should be, it’s own show. It will be about Cory and Topanga, their daughter, and a new set of characters … And I, for one, can’t wait to see it evolve.”

I hope he does come back, at least for some cameos! It wouldn’t be the same without him! What do you think?
