The Archie Comics characters are coming to The CW. Deadline reports the network has officially ordered a pilot for an Archie series called Riverdale.
The series joins several other new pilot orders from The CW that include a paranormal project from Kevin Williamson and an untitled Mars colony series.
As previously reported, the Riverdale series will feature familiar Archie like Betty, Veronica, and Archie himself but in a “darker” light.
From producer Greg Berlanti and writer Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa, the series will feature “a subversive take” on the small town and “the darkness and weirdness bubbling beneath Riverdale’s wholesome façade.”
