The Archies trailer dropped in today and it proves that the film is all we need for the Christmas season. Headlined by Suhana Khan, Agastya Nanda, Khushi Kapoor, Dot, Mihir Ahuja, Vedang Raina and Yuvraj Menda, the musical is directed by Zoya Akhtar. The film will release on Netflix on December 7, 2023. 


The Archies is based on the popular comic, Archie. Set in the '60s, the film revolves around Archie Andrews (Agastya Nanda), Betty Cooper (Khushi Kapoor), Veronica Lodge (Suhana Khan), Ethel Muggs (Dot), Jughead Jones (Mihir Ahuja), Reggie Mantle (Vedang Raina) and Dilton Doiley (Yuvraj Menda). 


The plotline of the Archie comics centers around Archie who lives in Riverdale, and attends Riverdale High School. He is a typical small-town teenager, extremely clumsy and can be very stupid. While Veronica Lodge is his crush, he is also fond of Betty Cooper. The story includes various plotlines that make it relatable.
