Charles Melton and Vanessa Morgan Become Riverdale Regulars in Season Three

Riverdale characters, Reggie Mantle and Toni Topaz, played by Charles Melton and Vanessa Morgan, are becoming more prominent figures in the upcoming season three.

For all you Riverdale newcomers, Charles Melton plays the captain of the Riverdale High School football team and takes on the typical jock stereotype. In the first two seasons, we do not learn much about Reggie’s personal life, we merely get to know him as a “ladies man”.

Vanessa Morgan plays bi-sexual bad ass, Toni Topaz, who attends Southside high, where all the bad rep “Serpents” reside. Through the first two seasons, we learn that Toni is an extremely loyal and compassionate friend to those that she can trust. Toni first comes off as an intimidating, stone cold individual, however, through the escalation of her and Jughead’s bonding, we can see that she possesses a soft side.

Hopefully in season three, we will uncover a more emotional and surprising side to Charles Melton’s and Vanessa Morgan’s characters. These regulars are sure to tangle the already confusing web of relationships and lies even more, so be ready.

If you are a current Riverdale fan, you should be excited for the drama to come with the addition of these new regulars. If you have not managed to binge watch Riverdale yet, set aside some time and get to it!
