Last month casting news for the new CW live action series 'Riverdale' based on the Archies comic revealed Josie and The Pussy Cats frontman, Josie McCoy, was being played by Black actress Ashleigh Murray [click here if you missed that].
Turns out both the Pussy Cats are Black, too...
Asha Bromfield has been cast as Melody Valentine and Hayleau will play Valerie Brown.

Hollywood is officially a recycling bin.
All of those girls AREN'T Black.

@ 7:51 a.m.:
Hollywood has no original ideas left. Same as the "musicians/entertainers". Most of it is just recycled stuff we grew up listening too. Nothing to see here...
Yaaay! I love those comic books! I hope they do this justice!
