DARK BETTY RETURNS
| If you loved seeing Betty tap into her dark side last season, youre not alone. Lili [Reinhart], who plays Betty, loves going Dark Betty, and we love it as well, Aguirre-Sacasa reports. He chalks up the appeal to the fact that Betty is the most wholesome character in Archie comics lore: Her going dark is the ultimate sort of subversion of Riverdale, and the Archie characters. And yes, he confirms well see more of that soon: She goes dark in Season 2, thats for sure.
AND THE WIG, TOO? | But will we see that jet-black wig Betty donned when she went off the rails last season and nearly drowned Chuck in the hot tub? Network suits werent exactly thrilled with it, Aguirre-Sacasa reveals: We got a lot of raised eyebrows from the executives working on the show. But the Riverdale writers still talk often about bringing the wig back, he says: My hope is that we can get it in, and make it as impactful as we did in Season 1.
