Who Is The Riverdale Actor Playing Gay Teen Kevin Keller?

TV/MOVIES

The much-anticipated CW series Riverdale premieres tonight, and it's being touted as a cross between The O.C. and Twin Peaks - complete with intrigue, murder, hot teen pieces, and of course a gay character played by newbie Casey Cott! A teen series without one gay character to keep it real is like James Franco's colon without his head's permanent address inside. And thankfully Riverdale, which is tightly based on the Archie comics, has the gay character Kevin Keller at its disposal. 

Everyone on the Internet is searching - Does Casey Cott have a boyfriend? Does Casey Cott have a girlfriend? Is Casey Cott gay? - but as of now those questions have yet to be answered. In this interview below we learn that Casey Cott's Kevin Keller has the hots for Archie in the new series, and that he, of course, keeps things real in the town of Riverdale. 

 

A nuanced gay character who isn't afraid to say what's what? *Hooked*. If you're anything like me - not old enough to have been balls deep into the Archie comics but about 45 thousand years too old to watch the CW without getting onto a government watch list, AKA over 14 - you can read the jizz-st of what Kevin Keller has to offer to the mysterious town of Riverdale: Via NewNowNext

In The CW series, Kevin is played by newcomer Casey Cott. In a video introducing viewers to the character, Cott explains that Kevin “is one of the only characters who is constantly saying the truth” on Riverdale. He’s also central to the show’s mystery since he—along with Archie—discovers a dead body in the show’s pilot.

Back in 2010 Kevin Keller became Archie Comics’ latest breakout star when his arrival in Veronica issue #202 became the only Archie comic in the company’s history to sell out. Since then he has gone on to headline his own mini-series and is currently starring in his own digital title, Life With Kevin, which explores Kevin’s post-Riverdale life as a journalist in New York.

You can check out some pics of the CW's hot new thang, Chris Cott, in the gallery at the top of the page. And guys, for the love of God be the sass attack in your friend group who isn't afraid to say what's what. It's what we were born to do! 

CORRECTION: A previous version of this article stated that Casey Cott is openly gay.
