Cameo Appearance of Peter Roth in Riverdale Finale Series
Sarah Schechter (one of the producers of Riverdale) spoke with Variety. “That was all Roberto (Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa is the creator), and it is my favorite thing of all time. Roberto even sent me the speech that Peter gave, because I wasn’t on set,” she said. “Riverdale exists because of a few people: Riverdale exists because of Roberto; Riverdale exists because Jon Goldwater at Archie Comics was willing to play and be open to modern; it exists because Greg Berlanti really, really fought for it to be on the air, and [former CW chairman] Mark Pedowitz listened. And no one keeps a show on the air like Peter Roth. Now that he’s retired and loving his retired life, it was so great. He’s always been a part of the show and a part of the DNA of this show. For him to actually be in Riverdale, it just felt perfect.”
