The fans are eagerly waiting for the next season to arrive. The fourth season of Riverdale was streamed on 9 October 2019, and the episode 17 of season 4 was to be streamed on 15 April 2020 which has been canceled due to coronavirus pandemic and same with episode 18 which was to be streamed on 29 April 2020 but has been postponed and the released date of the season finale is still not confirmed due to coronavirus. Season 5 is expected to have at least 22 episodes as of last season, and also, the audience can expect a major time jump in season 5. We will watch the teen characters in their twenties skipping their college years, respectively. No other details about the time-jump have been revealed, and it is still to be confirmed, but it seems like we will be jumping into the future when Riverdale returns with its season 5. It would lead to the departing of some of the actors who play parents, like Skeet Ulrich and Marisol Nichols. If the main four is now 23, there is less of a need for their parents.
Riverdale Season 5 Spoilers
While it’s difficult to predict that what will happen this time, it’s preferable to say that Archie will take off his clothes more than once, Betty will unlock her dark side yet again, and Veronica will continue taking on new properties as the world’s youngest business module. A highly foreseen connection between Riverdale and Sabrina could potentially happen, although there’s no news on this still, despite the multiple connections between each series. What we can expect though, is a connection between Riverdale and Katy Keene instead. The producers have already confirmed this, although it’s unclear how this will play out given the time jump between each show.
When will Riverdale Season 5 release?
Well, there is no confirmation about the release date of season 5, but it is expected that Netflix will return with the show at the end of 2020 with its new season. It has been delayed due to the severe conditions of COVID-19 going all over the world. But you can watch the previous seasons of Riverdale so as to develop more curiosity about what will happen in season 5.
