The Riverdale panel at the Warner Bros. TV Block at New York Comic Con Sunday morning began on a somber note (after a hook-ups and séance-filled sneak peek at next season), with the cast members recalling Luke Perry, the beloved TV icon who passed away suddenly on March 4 while the series was in production for season 4 (premiering Oct. 9 at 8 Pm on The CW).
Now into filming for the new season, showrunner Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa and five of the parent players recalled the giant loss of the man who played Archie Andrews’ father, Fred, a loss that’s dealt with in the first episode of the new season. The panel afforded the cast the opportunity to have a more extensive remembrance of Perry than the Riverdale panel at San Diego Comic-Con this summer.
The panel also served as a vehicle to premiere the trailer for the upcoming season.
