Riverdale: Final Season's Musical Episode To Feature All Original Songs — Get Details And An Exclusive First Look

You didn't think Riverdale was going to sign off without one last musical episode, did you?

Yes, the final season of The CW's long-running drama will indeed feature a musical episode, as it has in previous seasons, TVLine has confirmed — but there's a twist. Season 7's musical episode, titled "Archie the Musical," will feature all original songs for the first time. (The show's earlier musical episodes have all featured songs from established stage musicals like Heathers: The Musical and Hedwig and the Angry Inch.)

In the episode — airing Wednesday, July 5 at 9/8c — Principal Featherhead agrees to let Kevin and Clay pitch him a musical they wrote, but "Kevin learns the group might not be as into it as he had hoped," per the official description. Plus, "musical rehearsals prompt Archie to question what he wants in life, while Betty and Veronica confront what's going on between them."

Read on to get an exclusive first look at Riverdale's last musical episode ever — including an amazing group shot of the students of Riverdale High singing and dancing on the school's front steps — and then hit the comments and tell us: What are you hoping to see when the curtain goes up?
