“It was an absolute delight to have The Archies join our mission that brings people together over good food, for a good cause! (bow emoji) We cannot wait to see what good they are up to next! Thank you Archie, Veronica, Betty, Reggie, Jughead, Ethel & Dilton! They have a film releasing later this year called The Archies! And we can’t wait to Netflix and chill with them!”

About The Archies

The Archies is the Indian adaptation of the popular Archie Comics. It’s set in the Anglo-Indian community at a fictional hill station in India called Riverdale back in 1964. On setting the storyline in that period, Zoya said in an interview to Film Companion, “When I was asked to adapt this, I didn’t want to do a modern take. Firstly, Riverdale has done it. Secondly, it’s not my experience of Archies. My experience of Archies is a simpler time, a more innocent time, a gentler time, where less is more. I wanted to go back to that. I wanted to keep the essence of the comic and find a way for it to resonate with young adults today.”
