And when Jughead begins investigating his dad’s past, the father-son relationship starts to tear and FP is faced with some difficult decisions.
Ulrich says that FP is really not a family man and the 9-5 life. It’s truly incredible.Īs we delved into our interview, we learned that this season will really start peeling away the layers that make FP… well, FP. It took some quick thinking and hustle by Scream producers to convince the ‘big guys’ to keep the project going.įor us, we had no idea it would even be successful let alone last as long as it did and even become a franchise. In fact, according to Ulrich, Miramax actually wanted to pull the plug on the film.
Ulrich admits that no one working on Scream expected it to become as big as it did. So since Hollywood is currently in a 90s reboot craze, we wanted to hear Ulrich’s reflections on his role in Scream vs his current one in Riverdale. In fact, for those who don’t know, Jughead’s dad aka FP Jones is none other than Skeet Ulrich, an original Scream alum. While the kids may be the stars of the show, the parents aren’t without their own crazy star prowess. During New York Comic Con, we had the chance to attend the Riverdalepress room where we interviewed several actors from the show, including the “parents” of our favorite characters.
