Riverdale season 6 was undoubtedly an exciting ride. Alternate realities, time travel, witchcraft, superpowers, and a surprise twist were just a few of the many elements featured in the finale of the popular The CW series’ latest season, setting the stage for a very unexpected final season. Fortunately, fans don’t have to wait too long to re-watch Season 6 and get their taste of the Town with Pep while they wait for the seventh and final season, which is not anticipated until 2023.
Riverdale Has Been Renewed For the Final Season 7
Talking to TVLine, Aguirre-Sacasa said, “It came out of conversations with the studio and The CW and [network president] Mark Pedowitz. When we were renewed for Season 7, though we weren’t told at the time it’d be our final season, I think we were all feeling that it might be. When Mark and I talked about it… it was bittersweet. That said, we are so proud of the run we’ve had, and the call did come as we were working on the last episode of Season 6. We were debating on what the final beats of that episode would be and torn between a very big swing and a quieter ending. And it definitely emboldened us to go for the big swing for Season 7. It’s really exciting.”
While Riverdale’s seventh season will be a “big swing,” Pedowitz has previously stated that the show will be given an “appropriate sendoff” since they wanted to do what was best for the series and its viewers.
“We had a long conversation with Roberto yesterday, who’s thrilled by this news. And we’re going to treat the show in the manner it deserves. It was an iconic pop culture star, and we want to make sure it goes out the right way, and that is the decision. I think they choose that seven years is the right amount, and we want to do the right thing. That’s a personal thing. As a fan myself, I do want to do what’s right for the show,” stated Pedowitz.
Riverdale’s Season 6 will be released on Netflix on Sunday, August 7.
