Lucy Hale and Ashleigh Murray to Star in Riverdale Spin-Off "Katy Keene"

I'm so excited to hear that Lucy Hale has been cast to play Katy Keene for the new Archie Comics' Katy Keene TV series on The CW. Joining her on the new series is Ashleigh Murray who currently plays Josie McCoy on the Riverdale TV series.

I'm happy for both actresses for this new series because Lucy Hale's last CW show Life Sentence was really good but it was cancelled. While Asleigh Murray's Josie was being wasted on Riverdale and I thought that Josie & the Pussycats deserved a spin-off series. However, since that's not going to happen, I do hope she will get to shine more on this new show.

It will be interesting to see what tone the Katy Keene series will take, will it follow in the dark, dramatic and comedic tone of Riverdale and the Chilling Adventures of Sabrina or be something completely different. It doesn't matter, I'm really looking forward to watching Katy Keene.
