As we know, the season premiere of Riverdale is going to deal with the death of Fred Andrews. Luke Perry, who played the beloved character, passed away in March after suffering a stroke.
That tribute episode is going to air October 9th and now we are getting out first look from In Memoriam. The CW released three photos and the above one with Molly Ringwald and KJ Apa just breaks your heart. You feel as though it is a real mother consoling her son on the toughest day of his life. The moment he finds out his father is dead. With just one frame, you know this episode is going to be very emotional and make us cry. Just like we did when he heard that Perry passed away.
Riverdale stars Luke Perry, Lili Reinhart And KJ Apa were on Watch What Happens Live and Andy Cohen asked the younger stars to recreate that iconic Brenda and Dylan break up scene from Beverly Hills, 90210’s second season premiere. Want to feel old? Neither of the younger two was born when that scene aired.
Anyways, how did they do? It was a valiant effort, but not as great as the original. Nothing will ever be as good as when Brenda dumped Dylan in that car on the beach.
Now let us talk about how much Apa looks like TV dad when he was on the teen drama? Isn’t it scary how much they look alike?
Finally, forgot how awesome that 90210 scene was, then click here!
