Which ‘Riverdale’ Star Is the Mom of the Group? It’s Not Who You Think

Archie Andrews and his gang of besties have quickly become some of my favorite people on TV, but as an obsessive type, I spend a lot of time wondering what ficitional characters—or, rather, those who portray them—are like in real life. So when I was talking with Marisol Nichols about Riverdale, I couldn’t pass up the opportunity to ask about her castmates. Who are the best off-screen friends? Who’s most likely to break in a scene? And who’s the mom of the group? 

Her answers might surprise you. May I present Marisol’s Riverdale superlatives.
