Speaking to PopBuzz, Cole Spouse said: “I think there’s a lot of potential and a lot of interesting narratives this season in the form of FP [Skeet Ulrich] and Jughead teaming up and playing the True Detective crime investigator father/son duo.
“I think there’s something really enjoyable about Jughead being the brain and FP being the brawn of that investigation.
“That’s something I’d personally like to see going into season four.”
Fans will be hoping to find out in the season premiere tonight if Jughead is still alive or not.
The new series will also pay tribute to Luke Perry, who played Fred Andrews in the show.
