New York-based Archie Comics and mobile content and character entertainment company Graphic India are teaming up to bring Archie, Jughead, Betty and Veronica to India. The two companies will create a Bollywood-style live-action film, with an all-Indian cast, based on the iconic Archie Comics characters.
The production, which will be the first international comic to be translated for Indian screens, is in the early stages with an official release date to be announced. The companies have taken initial steps toward a modern screenplay that will resonate with longtime Archie fans in India.

“We are supremely excited to partner with the great team at Graphic India to bring Archie and his friends to Bollywood,” said Archie Comics CEO Jon Goldwater. “Archie’s lasting and growing presence in India made this move the logical next step.”
