©Aaron Spelling Prods/Courtesy Everett Collection Nearly 20 years since the conclusion of “7th Heaven,” and over a year since the news broke about its reboot, original star Jessica Biel is giving fans an update on the new iteration of the show, including how she plans to “modernize” it for today’s audience and what she hopes to accomplish on set as a producer.
“What we want to create, how we want to modernize it, is really the things that are happening for teenagers and families that have teenagers all the way down to the youngest child — technology-based issues, school stuff, bullying stuff, drugs, alcohol,” Biel said on a recent episode of Collider Ladies Night. “All of those things we want to address in a very real way, which is, I think, what the original kind of gently touched on, but we were very careful about what our audience wanted. We had a lot of limitations. We have less limitations now.”
