Vanessa Morgan (Toni) and Charles Melton (Reggie) have been promoted to series regulars for season 3.

"Toni Topaz has been a break-out character for us since Jughead met her at Southside High — and that’s thanks to Vanessa Morgan’s fearless, winning performance,” raves the executive producer, clearly aware of the positive response to Morgan's on-screen pairing with Madelaine Petsch's Cheryl Blossom. “We’re thrilled that the adventures of this fan-favorite will continue into Season 3. Long live Choni!"

''"As for Melton, who replaced 13 Reasons Why's Ross Butler, Aguirre-Sacasa is equally effusive. “Charles stepped into the iconic role of Reggie this season and completely made it his own,” he offers, adding that the recast's take on the troublemaker "is sexy and funny as hell. He’s a terrific addition to the gang and in Season 3, we’ll be seeing A LOT more of him. All hail Mantle the Magnificent!"''
