The CW has commissioned a pilot for Riverdale, a live-action spin on Archie Comics, which has now been in print for seventy-five years.
The series is to feature all of the old Archie fan-favorite characters, including Betty, Veronica, Reggie, Jughead, and Archie himself. The titular characters of Josie and the Pussycats will also come into play at some point.
Should the pilot land well, the Riverdale series can probably be expected no sooner than 2017.
