Chic’s Father Will Be Revealed On ‘Riverdale’

Love him or hate him, Chic Cooper (Hart Denton) is an enigmatic figure this season on Riverdale. We know Betty’s (Lili Reinhart) brother’s mother is Alice Cooper (Mädchen Amick). But his father has remained a mystery… Until now.

Well, not right now. But according to Brian E. Paterson, a writer for the show, the reveal is coming. We found out pretty definitively that Hal Cooper (Lochlyn Munroe) was not Chic’s father. And when Alice was asked if F.P. Jones (Skeet Ulrich) was Chic’s father, Alice didn’t give a flat “no.” Instead, she said it was “complicated.”

So is there a Twins scenario going on? Or did Alice cheat on F.P. during her serpent days with someone else, meaning she’s never been sure exactly who Chic’s father really was? Either way, we’ll find out soon.

When asked by a fan on Twitter about whether we’d find out who Chic’s father is, Paterson simply said, “yes.”

Yes.

It has to be someone we know, right? It’s not a Blossom, since Betty did a genetic test and found Chic had no Blossom blood. That leaves Sheriff Keller, Fred Andrews and Hiram Lodge as the likely suspects, all of which would be super-duper weird.

Paterson also revealed a bunch of other juicy tidbits about the final few episodes of Riverdale Season 2.

Yep, Barchie is coming, whether you like it or not.

Archie and Betty are iconic…so of course they will be explored!

Chuck is definitively a good guy, which makes our #Chuckonica theory all the more possible.

Yes, Chuck is a good guy. I pushed for this.

The penultimate episode will bring Bughead fans to tears.

Definitely. Writing the penultimate episode brought me to tears.

— Brian E. Paterson (@BrianEPaterson) April 21, 2018

But are they good tears, or bad tears???

Bughead is “solid,” which seems to cover what kind of tears we’ll be getting.

They're solid.

What a crazy couple of seconds that just was.

When it comes to more Choni kisses, Magic 8-Ball says “ask again later.”

Hope so. Aren't they the best?

JUSTICE FOR CHONI.

Veronica may be about to turn on her parents.

Veronica will see through her parents' bullshit very soon… But you didn't hear that from me.

Kevin is going to find someone.

Kevin is a lot stronger than you believe. He will persevere through this and find his someone. As far as Joaquin, I can't really comment.

Is it Fangs? It’s probably Fangs.

Oh, and we’re definitely going to find out who the REAL Black Hood is.

Yes.

Is it Fangs? It’s probably Fangs. Poor Kevin.
