KJ Apa in 'Riverdale': it's like being in a jail

- ADVERTISING-

KJ Apa is one of the most popular young actors of the moment, mainly for his portrayal of Archie in the series Riverdale. Although you might think that he is comfortable with this fame, the truth is that it is the opposite. In an interview, he showed signs of being a bit tired of his character and the production in general.

Of course, he did not say it in these words or explicitly, but he did express his true disappointment at the creative limitations that having a role of this caliber represents. In any case, he said that he appreciates the reception that the series has had among the public, but he assured that there is much more behind it.

Riverdale is a teen drama television series that is based on the characters of Archie Comics. Season 1 hit The CW screens in January 2017. Along with Apa, the series stars Lili Reinhart, as Betty Cooper; Camila Mendes, as Veronica Lodge, and Cole Sprouse, as Jughead Jones.

Singing bird, a relief for KJ Apa

In an interview for Interview with Demi Moore, KJ Apa explained what their feelings are about Riverdaleespecially with a paper that hardly leaves room for creative freedom in front of the camera.

«I felt so free [recording Songbird] Coming from a series where I feel like I'm in jail most of the time. There are so many restrictions on what I can and cannot do, ”he said.

Fortunately, KJ Apa was able to get involved in another project due to changes in the filming schedule of Riverdale. The health crisis forced to reorganize the dates, so he had enough margin to participate in the production of Michael Bay.

«I thought [about Songbird] Wow! This is what it feels like to really express myself naturally. It was not covered in makeup or hair products. He had long hair and a beard. I felt free. There is a lot of pressure playing Archie. I am very grateful for the series and its success, but at the same time so much success comes with a lot of weight, "he said.
