The character of Katy Keene will make her debut on Riverdale ahead of her own show’s premiere.
Remember that not-so-subtle name that Veronica dropped when Archie needed some Halloween costumes? Her friend “Katy Keene” had exactly what they needed. Well, E! is now reporting that Veronica Lodge (sorry, Luna) will be paying a visit to her old friend in an upcoming episode of Riverdale.
Veronica will travel to New York for a college interview, but she’ll take some time to catch up with the titular Katy Keene character, played by Lucy Hale, while she’s there. According to E!, the ladies will be embarking on a shopping spree in the big city.

The episode will air on Wednesday, February 5, before the premiere of Katy Keene on Thursday, February 6. The Riverdale spinoff will take place 5 years after the events of Riverdale season 4, so Katy, a young fashion designer, will be about five years older than when we meet her with Veronica. Katy Keene will also star Riverdale’s Ashleigh Murray as Josie McCoy, Jonny Beauchamp as Jorge Lopez/Ginger and Julia Chan as Pepper Smith.
If Veronica is heading to New York for a college interview, she might be giving up on her Harvard dreams in favor of Columbia or NYU. Or, maybe she’ll be giving a more specialized school in the city a try, like Juilliard! Probably not, but in New York, the possibilities are endless. We can’t wait to find out what she chooses!
