Narcity has reached out to CW for comment and will update this story.

Deadline also reported that multiple shows have been shut down because testing is taking too long.

It's not just Riverdale, it's also Batwoman, Charmed, Nancy Drew, and more.

The hit teen CW show suddenly halted production back in March due to the COVID-19 crisis.

The cast of the show recently returned to Vancouver near the end of the summer to begin filming again, but the show is now reportedly experiencing delays.
