Very old rumor that I never heard
I was websurfing and came up with this...
Reported by Corona Coming Attractions, 7/10/99: In a follow up to their recent story about casting hopefuls for the Archie movie, Corona Coming Attractions now reports that Melissa Joan Hart (Sabrina The Teenage Witch) has signed. According to the report Hart will play Betty, Archie's blond sweetheart. CCA also reports that Rose McGowan (Jawbreaker) is close to signing for Veronica. However, the article also indicates that Charisma Carpenter (Buffy The Vampire Slayer) is in contention for Veronica. Scott Foley (Felicity) is rumored to be looking at the part of Reggie. One final rumor is that Glenn Close (Tarzan) is interested in the part of Miss Grundy. Then in another bit is says that the Archie was dropped so they could do Joise and the Pussycats (which was made) Anyone else ever heard this?

Wow. Melissa Joan Hart as Betty would've been horrid. I've always seen Betty as a very chipper Sarah Michelle Gellar. Charisma as Veronica I could definitely see. Though I never was a fan of V. I always rooted for the sweetheart, Betty.

LOVED Betty. Didn't much like Veronica. But as Michael Vartan once put it - "Veronica had the great legs." And Charisma would be fantastic.
BUT MJH as Betty? Nuh uh.

I've always liked Archie/Veronica more than Archie/Betty. I don't know why.

And the only Archie movie I have ever seen is a video tape I have of a tv movie... http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0099054/ "The comic book characters of Archie, Jughead, Betty, Veronica, Reggie, and the rest are brought to life in this live action version. They are now adults; Archie's a lawyer, who is looking forward to finally leaving Riverdale, Betty's a school teacher, Jughead's a psychiatrist who spends most of his time talking about his own problems than his patients. Veronica's a socialite and Reggie is still as obnoxious as ever. Currently he plans to demolish Pop's their old hangout, so Pop's asks Archie to look into it and discovers some interesting facts. And all this while they are about to attend their high school reunion. And Archie though engaged has to deal with his feelings for Betty and Veronica."

Taking into consideration the fact that BOTH Betty and Veronica are vying for Archie's affections, and Veronica's wishy-washy about her "feelings" for Archie, I side with Betty. Though we all know she's too good for that lug anyways.

I am the hugest Archie comics fan. Own at least 100 or so. I could definately see Charisma playing Veronica. I was a much bigger fan of Veronica, just because I love her character-- with the shallowness, materialistic side, but that sensitive side underneath that you could see when she was being a best friend to Betty. Nera can back me up here. I always wanted Betty/Reggie to hook up. I'm weird like that. They should consider remaking a movie or bringing this project back. The other one wasn't good. And Melissa Joan Hart as Betty? Ick. She's bad enough as Sabrina. I could see Reese Witherspoon playing Betty, James Marsden maybe as Reggie- but his eyes aren't the same, Charisma as Veronica... I'm still wondering who could be the best Archie though. They are not enough red-haired male actors in the industry at the moment.
