Riverdale bringing back controversial character in s3?

From Digital Spy

Warning: this article contains potential spoilers for Riverdale season 3.

Riverdale may be bringing back a very controversial character that we thought was dead next season.

The last time we saw Chic Cooper (Hart Denton), he was presumed to be a victim of the Black Hood after being revealed as an imposter.

However, it seems he may have survived his ordeal – a body was never shown, after all – as Alice Cooper actress Madchen Amick may have let slip a big reveal.

"I'm sure you're all aware of [Hart's] creepy portrayal of the Cooper son and I can't wait to see what he's gonna be up to in season three. Spoiler alert!" she said at an event for mental health awareness.

We'll take that as a big spoiler alert.

So it seems we may see more of Chic's creepy antics next season.

Showrunner Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa has also been teasing what to expect from the third season, revealing that viewers can "absolutely" expect a new genre in the new episodes.

"I think what started in my mind as a traditional coming-of-age show quickly morphed into something that was a little pulpier, something that was more noir, something that had a suspense or crime element," he said.

"Yes, in season one, we did a murder mystery, and in season two, we did a serial killer in a small town and The Godfather in a small town.

"Season three will have a high genre element like that. That's what the show is. It's not just about the Archie characters. It's the Archie characters put into a specific genre, and we see how they relate and survive and adapt."

Riverdale airs on The CW in the US and Netflix in the UK, with season one also currently showing on 5STAR.
