With season 7 done and dusted, viewers are curious about the Riverdale Season 8 release date. The series is based on the characters of Archie Comics and gives us a bold, subversive take on them. It showcases the darkness and weirdness of the titular small town and its people. Archie, Betty, Jughead, and their friends lead the show. But will they return for an 8th season?
Here’s all Riverdale Season 8 release date information we know so far, and all the details on when it is coming out.
Is there a Riverdale Season 8 release date?
There is no Riverdale Season 8 release date as the 7th season was announced to be the final one.
Back in 2022, Season 7 was confirmed to be the final season of the show. The series peaked in its second season, which was followed by a steady decline. However, the viewership dropped by 45% between seasons 5 & 6, which led to the decision of season 7 being the last one. The CW gave it a fitting end with the final episode having aired on August 23, 2023.
In the last season, Jughead was trapped in the 1950s, and so were his friends. While others were living their lives unaware that they belonged to a different era, Jughead was trying to get back to the present. Throughout the season, viewers saw him and the gang trying to make their way back to their original timeline.
The series starred KJ Apa, Lili Reinhart, Camila Mendes, Cole Sprouse, Marisol Nichols, Madelaine Petsch, Ashleigh Murray, Mädchen Amick, and more.
Is Riverdale Season 8 coming out soon?
No, Riverdale Season 8 isn’t confirmed to release on The CW and Netflix.
The official synopsis of Riverdale Season 7 reads:
“Riverdale’s final season sees the crew stuck in the ’50s. But with no one else aware of the time warp, it’s on Jughead to find a way back to the present”
