Casting Call: Archie

AnnaSophia Robb has the adorable, girl-next-door look down to a tee. With her doll features and cute naivety, she would be an irresistible Betty Cooper.

 

As the principle of Riverdale High Mr. Wetherbee, John Goodman would be the ultimate authority figure. His enormous stature and stern glare demands respect from all of the young teenyboppers of Riverdale High, yet his hilarious personality allows him to maintain close relationships with all of his students.

In his breakout performance in the The Bling Ring, Israel Broussard perfected the helpless, goober friend role. His awkward and oafy mannerisms make him a lovable Jughead, Archie's steadfast wingman.

With his boyish charm and quirky demeanor, Freddie Highmore is the perfect Archie Andrews. With his swooshy hair and baby blues, he's bound to charm his way into the young hearts of Betty Cooper and Veronica Lodge. After Bates Motel, we're keen to see Highmore in a less creepy role.

Now, for Betty Cooper's outrageously attractive and spoiled frienemy Veronica Lodge, who is better than Lily Collins? With her styled, dark hair and feminine taste, she is the perfect Veronica.

Alexander Ludwig epitomizes the ultimate high-school heartthrob. With his undeniable good looks and god given athletic talent, we could seem him running Riverdale High as Reggie Mantle. It doesn't hurt that Ludwig began his career as an Abercrombie & Fitch model.
