About Riverdale
This new drama follows the residents of the town, after the death of “golden boy,” Jason Blossom. After Jason’s death, Archie Andrews (Apa) realizes does not want to follow in his father’s footsteps. Instead, he wants to pursue a career in music. That’s complicated, though, because of his past, forbidden relationship with his young music teacher, Ms. Grundy (Habel).
Things are not easy in his personal life, either. Archie is on the outs with his best friend, Jughead Jones (Cole Sprouse). Meanwhile, Betty Cooper (Reinhart) has a big crush on Archie, but is not ready to reveal her feelings.
New to town, Veronica Lodge (Mendes) feels the chemistry between her and Archie. That said, she is not sure she wants to risk ruining her fledgling friendship with Betty, by acting on her feelings.
Cheryl Blossom (Petsch) is described as “Riverdale’s Queen Bee.” Cheryl is happy to instigate trouble with the gang, but it seems she has a secret. Is she hiding something about her twin brother’s death?
