In response, she said that Veronica has “already got a long list of boys chasing after her.

Zoya Akhtar reveals the casting of The Archies
Zoya Akhtar spoke about her process of casting for The Archies. She said, “For me, when I’m casting actors, the essence of the characters is very important.” She further added, “And that’s what I look for in someone who comes to audition for a role. Is that essence there? You can manipulate everything else to some extent, but if that essence is not there you’re setting yourself up for failure. It took a lot of auditions to find the right cast.”
