KJ Apa talks about an Archie and Kevin romance on Riverdale

Sure, Archie and Veronica are a really good couple on Riverdale, but all they do is bone when they’re in crisis (sorry).

And you know what? We’re bloody tired of Kevin having the worst storyline of all time. So something we could REALLY, REALLY get around is Archie and Kevin falling in l o v e.

And KJ Apa is totally on board.

While speaking at Oz Comic-Con 2018 in Melbourne over the weekend, KJ was asked about the Archie/Kevin ship that the fandom is obsessed with. As journalist Claire Kramer reports, he answered: “Love it, let’s go.”

THAT’S ENOUGH FOR US!

But it didn’t even end there. Archie has a real love for Kevin’s character, so much so that he’s love to somehow play him someday.

“I would play Kevin. Kevin’s my favourite character, and I tell Casey [Cott] that all the time. Casey’s one of my best mates,” he said.

We’re in love.
