The CW has a history of producing groundbreaking shows. “Riverdale” has become one of their recent successes, mostly because everyone is obsessed with the beautiful cast. But how well do you really know the actors and actresses behind the show? We’ve compiled a list of The Cast of Riverdale Real Name and Age to help you out!
Take KJ Apa for instance. Do you think his real name is KJ? Well, it’s not. It’s actually short for Keneti James. And he is actually a bit older than his character Archie. Apa is 20 years old, which puts him out of high school but still in an acceptable age range.
Camila Mendes plays Veronica on the show. Veronica is an iconic character, known for seeming older than she is. That may be the reason why directors cast Mendes in the role since she is actually 23 and not a teenager at all!
Casey Cott who plays Kevin Keller, the best friend of Betty Cooper, also looks extremely young. When you watch the show, you would never guess that the star is really 25! Not only is he not of high school age, but he’s also already been to college! Talk about a giant age gap there.
Whether it’s Ashleigh Murray, Madelaine Petsch, Cole Sprouse, Ross Butler, or Lili Reinhart, there are lots of things that you don’t know about the cast of “Riverdale.” Stay tuned until the end of The Cast of Riverdale Real Name and Age to find out which star is dating someone five years younger than him!

Wait hang on!!! THEY DID DATE??!! Or did I heat it wrong?!
Kevin is my fav
I think they needed older people to play the high school characters because well Archie and Miss Grundy would have to be adults to film that wouldn't they?
COLE AND LILY WERE DATING😱😱😱
I feel like the only show that cast people under 20 in a teenage show is Skam.
Got a Riverdale ad
Veronica isn't as pretty as I imagined her to be! Sigh she's so pretty and amazing in the comics
Not to be rude but where are my Asians at in all this…
that's normal to have actors older than their characters!
Woah their not in high school DUHHHHHHHHH
Lmao I got a Riverdale add in the middle of the vid 😂😂
Omg I remember as a kid watching a bunch of Josie and the pussy cat songs.
Whoever wrote this script is a goddamn moron
i knew they were dating i'm sooooooooooo happy
a whole 3 years older than her character
woah
Im so confused is Lili and Cole actually a thing are they actually together?
No one believes they're high school age
Of course they cast adults for children’s roles. What they do in the show is pretty adult. Having kids would have a lot of backlash. It isn’t Disney.
KJ Appa is born in 1997? I am born in 1997, and still feel like a child. What in the world?
I didn’t know Lilli and Cole are actually dating! So cute!
Cried when I saw Ross😭
The age cap of Lilli and Cole is 4 years not 5
In the US, they usually have 20+ age people play a younger role because legally, teens have to be in school. And that would affect the schedule of filming. They usually get people who could pass off as teens. Plus underage actors need work permits from the DOL. Just wanted to explain for those who are wondering! 🙂
But they aren't dating.. cole and lill it was a rumor
You don't know why they went with older actors? Really? It's because the show films for 12-16 hours a day and teenagers aren't legally allowed to work that much. It's not rocket science.
i’m confused 23 isn’t old? why would they cast 15 year old actors, they wouldn’t . idk why they think we’d be surprised that they were 20-26 like ok…
its very usual for teenage characters to be played by ppl in their 20s, they rarely look like high schoolers anyway. but maybe it is bc they have the experience and bc of that are better than the actual high school students. theres a show called 'skam' about norwegian teenagers, and those actors are mostly the age they play, some a few years older. makes it more real. the producers also made instagram accounts for the characters so some ppl thought that it wasnt actors playing the characters, but that they were the characters they played. cool show
I mean we all knew they weren't high schooler. That's probably why Mrs Grundy and Archie didn't seem so distant from age
"I wasn't surprised about Josie, black don't crack."
Ross butler is so lucky , he's on 13 reasons why AND riverdale
WHAT WHEN DID BUGHEAD BECOME REAL
R lili and cole still dating?!?!
SURPRISED ABOUT ASHLEIGH (Josie) FOR SURE! Her and Lily looked like the youngest…
Being actually 20 playing a 17 year old is not a big deal, just 3 years apart lol. At 20 you just go out of your teen years so not too "old"
The thing that bothers me is that the characters are supposed to be sophomores? Excuse me but I’ve never seen any sophomores that hot and mature looking
Josie I was most surprised about
Honestly
Can you tell me how many girls Archie kissed in riverdale omg
