Riverdale: Andy Cohen to guest star as himself on CW hit

Riverdale type TV Show network The CW

To celebrate our Winter TV Preview, EW is bringing fans 25 Scoops in 25 Days. From now until the end of the month, follow the hashtag #25Scoops25Days on Twitter and Instagram to keep up with the latest — and check EW.com/25scoops for all the news and surprises.

This might be even more surprising than the Black Hood reveal: EW has learned exclusively that Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen host Andy Cohen will be guest-starring on Riverdale in late March.

Cohen begins shooting his cameo later this week and, according to the network, “will be playing himself and he’s an old friend of the Lodges who has come to Riverdale to offer Hermione (Marisol Nichols) a helping hand.”

Cohen’s real-life buddy Mark Consuelos is currently playing Hiram Lodge, Hermione’s husband, so we’re thinking maybe this was a friendly casting suggestion. Or could Andy be doing a sitdown with Hermione a la Luann de Lesseps after she got divorced?!??!?! Either way, we’re happy to know that Riverdale gets Bravo — Kevin (Casey Cott) and Veronica (Camila Mendes) would def be into Real Housewives of New York.

Riverdale airs Wednesday nights at 8 p.m. on The CW.
