An Archie Comics-based drama series called Riverdale is in development at FOX, produced by Greg Berlanti (Arrow, The Flash) and written by Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa (Carrie). Warner Bros. Television is producing the project, alongside Berlanti Productions. Deadline reports that Riverdale is getting a script plus penalty deal, meaning that if the show doesn't get picked-up to series, there will be financial consequences for the network.
