‘Riverdale’ Reveals a Musical Episode

The hit show based on Archie Comics will be releasing a musical episode.

In an upcoming episode, the Riverdale’s high school drama department will be unraveling a production of Carrie: The Musical, which means that we will be witnessing 11 different songs come to life on our television screens. Just released, there is a cast list featuring Betty (Lili Reinhart), Archie (KJ Apa), Veronica (Camila Mendes), Josie (Ashleigh Murray), Reggie (Charles Melton), Toni (Vanessa Morgan), and even Alice Cooper (Madchen Amick). Not to mention Cheryl (Madelaine Petsch) will be filling the roles of Carrie White and director, alongside Kevin.

Notice anybody in particular missing? That’s right Jughead Jones is not a part of the cast list. But should we expect him to be? Having joked about surviving a Disney career without singing, Cole Sprouse shares in an interview that he doesn’t “want to fall back in” and let’s consider Jughead as a character for a second.

Instead, in this special episode, Jughead will be framing this particular theater production like a documentary, and we cannot wait for the ominous narration.

Riverdale airs Wednesdays at 8 p.m. on the CW.
