Archie Comics president Allan Grafman and ceo Chuck Grimes will produce the film with Archie Comics Publications Inc. chairman Michael Silberkleit and president Richard Goldwater serving as exec producers. Paramount will distribute the film and the two companies will split licensing and merchandising based on the film.
