The storyline for Riverdale Season 6:

Based on the events of Riverdale Season Five, Archie and Hiram Lodge are embroiled in a feud to take over Riverdale. Meanwhile, Veronica deals with her complicated feelings about her father’s death while trying to protect Fred from Hiram’s evil schemes; Betty grapples with whether she should stay in town as Jughead starts college at Southside High; Archie’s love life takes a hit as he is torn between Veronica and Betty.

Meanwhile, Jughead struggles to find his place in the town after being away from all summer without any contact from anyone back home. He soon starts dating Penny Peabody, who leads him down a dangerous path with her gang of criminals known as The Riverdale Reaper Sons. Finally, Josie McCoy has moved on from her brief fling with Reggie Mantle and gets into a new relationship that shocks everyone!

The cast for Riverdale Season 6:

As always, we will be following the lives of our favourite characters – Archie Andrews (KJ Apa), Betty Cooper (Lili Reinhart), Veronica Lodge (Camila Mendes), Jughead Jones (Cole Sprouse), and Kevin Keller (Casey Cott).

We will also be following the lives of Josie McCoy-Cooper, son J.J., Cheryl Blossom, Reggie Mantle, Dilton Doiley, Ethel Muggs, Chuck Clayton, and Mr. Weatherbee, who is now retired but still teaching at Riverdale High School as a teacher for social studies.

As well as seeing some familiar faces on screen, we will also get to see new characters such as Archie’s mom Mary Andrews played by Molly Ringwald; Veronica’s parents Hiram Lodge and Hermione Lodge nee Thistlewaite played by Mark Consuelos and Nathalie Boltt, respectively; Betty Cooper’s dad Hal Cooper played by Hart Denton and Alice Cooper is now Hal’s second wife; Archie Andrews’ dad Fred Andrews (Luke Perry) who was killed in the final episode of Riverdale season five.

What is Riverdale about?

Riverdale is a show that follows Archie, Betty, and Veronica, who are best friends in the town of Riverdale. The series starts with the murder of Jason Blossom, which causes everyone to become suspicious: Jughead (Archie’s best friend), Cheryl Blossom (possessed twin sister), Reggie Mantle (Cheryl’s ex-boyfriend), and Dilton Doiley.

The three main characters, Archie Andrews’ dad Fred Andrews, Chuck Clayton, and Mr. Weatherbee, all had different motives, but at this point, it seems like either Reggie or someone from his gang might be responsible for killing him because he was jealous of Jason dating one of their own.

What can we expect from season six?

We don’t know when; Riverdale will return, but here’s what we do have: it’ll be a shorter season; than usual, and the first episodes will air in early 2022.

The showrunner; also revealed that they’re going to explore; more social issues; this time around, like an episode about gun control. And yes – there might still be some Archie-Betty drama too.

*More spoilers below!*

In another interview with Vulture, Aguirre-Sacasa promised fans “will never see” Jughead (Cole Sprouse) or Betty (Lili Reinhart) together romantically on-screen again because their relationship was always meant to end quickly. He said: “We wanted them both to move out of town at the end of the show.

The only thing that will be on screen is a kiss, and it’s not even Archie and Betty, but Jughead kissing somebody else.”

Riverdale won’t have any romantic relationships between its main characters going forward.
