Luke had one more lead studio film role, as a bullrider in 8 Seconds (he hosted SNL for the movie), then during his break from 90210, was the male lead in the indie film Normal Life. He claimed he did Buffy because he wanted to play a role that wasn't like Dylan. I'm not sure if it hurt him or if the 90210 actors were just never likely to be film stars. Shannen could have in another world but the bitch claims against her were already so central to her identity by this point.
Tori Spelling tried the indie route in the late '90s (she's decent in House of Yes and Trick was something of a cult classic); she might have had more success if she had stuck to it.
Jason Priestley's main movie that I remember was Calendar Girl, mostly because he showed more of himself in the film than I think he or the director realized.
