Riverdale will return for a second season.

Variety reports The CW has renewed its Archie Comics mystery drama for Season 2. Currently, there are no details about the second season, including a possible release window or any information about the plot.

Riverdale is a subversive and dark take on the Archie Comics featuring all of the main characters from the comics, including Archie Andrews, Betty Cooper, Veronica Lodge, and Jughead Jones. Showrunner Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa recently spoke to IGN about what the show could and couldn't change from the comics. The show's cast also discussed what it was like to revamp Archie into a dark and dangerous world.

Season 1 is currently airing every Thursday at 9 PM ET on The CW. Check out what IGN thought of the season premiere and the other seven times the Archie Comics went dark before the show.
