However, Riverdale season 5 production is expected to be delayed due to the coronavirus epidemic. Riverdale is filmed in Vancouver, and the Canadian government is still deciding how long the current restrictions will last, so The CW brought its entire fall schedule forward to January.
What could be the expected storyline this time for the 5th Instalment of the show?
Showrunner Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa has stated that the first three episodes of Season 5 of Riverdale will incorporate the story of Season 4, including the mystery of the Sinister videotape. This will be followed by a leap in time (rumoured to be about five years), taking the story forward at a time when the characters going to college have graduated and the situation has brought everyone back to Riverdale. Archie will go to the US Naval Academy. While Betty leaves for Yale, Jughead attends the University of Iowa, and Veronica goes to Barnard College.
