Archie and the gang to make movie debutIf you thought Team Edward and Team Jacob was a heated match-up, just wait until Team Betty and Team Veronica. Warner Bros. (which is owned by the same parent company as CNN) is going to produce a live-action film based on the iconic "Archie" comic series. This will be the first time in the comic's 72-year history that Riverdale's favorite teenagers will get a silver screen debut.
"We are thrilled to be working with Warner Bros. on this project," said Archie Comics co-CEO Jon Goldwater in a statement announcing the project. "[We] have complete faith in their ability to bring 'Archie' to the big screen in a way the fans will love." Jason Moore - who directed the popular "Pitch Perfect" - will helm the project while Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa (who just finished writing the crossover mash-up "Archie Meets Glee") will pen the script. The story will be set "in present-day Riverdale" and, according to Aguirre-Sacasa, will be more John Hughes than Frank Capra. "'Archie' is the ultimate teenager, and this movie will be the ultimate teenage movie in the grand tradition of 'Sixteen Candles' and 'Ferris Bueller's Day Off,'" Sacasa said. "We are so grateful to Jon [Goldwater] for inviting us to this dance." |

Archie was obviously based on "Andy Hardy" movies.
Andy(Mickey Rooney) was Archie.
Betsy(Judy Garland) was Betty.
Ann Rutherford's character(I forgot her name) was Veronica and her family was even rich.
There was even a Jughead-type character and Andy drove a jalopy.
I doubt if any of you are older than 13.
I'd do Jughead. Seriously. Sit on his nose. For sure.
How about Selena Gomez as Betty and Vanessa Hdgens as Veronica
and call it
Riverdale Spring Breakers
see kim
I agree, Cheryl Blossom for sure. Hotter than Betty, richer than Veronica. I grew up on Archie Comics so I'll keep an eye on this
as Archie
Who's going to play Betty and Veronica?
Are you guys crazy? Surely there is more news out there to report than a movie about the excrutiating pain poor Archie must be experiencing trying to decide whether to date Betty or Veronica . Leave Archie and friends alone. You've really overstepped this time. I'm done with CNN forever. Only in America!!!
What the hell are you on the entertainment blog for? What a dork.
Oh, for the love of all that is holy, NO!
Doesn't anyone in Hollywood have any original ideas anymore?
Cheryl Blossom is the one I would pick. (LOL)
I would like the proposed Archie film to be more Capra-ese than John Hughes type,although I'm a big fan of John Hughes films, Weird Science and Ferris Bueller are both my favorite Hughes films.
Veronica, definitely.
Too bad it won't be rated R. We won't get to see her ( o )( o )
Give a whole new meaning to JugHead
i do not believe she is flat chested..no....
