The classic “Archie” comics are being adapted into a movie. Directing duo Phil Lord and Christopher Miller, best known for their work on the “Spider-Verse” films, are leading the project, with Tom King set to write the script. Specific plot details are being kept secret for now. In a statement, Lord and Miller said, “We’ve been fans of Archie, Veronica, Betty, and the gang through all their versions… We’re thrilled to bring these iconic characters to the big screen.” First published more than 85 years ago, “Archie Comics” have sold over 3 billion copies worldwide and were most recently adapted into the hit TV series “Riverdale,” which ran for seven seasons.
