Your Guide To Casey Cott

Publish date: 2024-06-04

It seems as though Casey Cott doesn't have to dig too deeply to play "Riverdale" nice guy Kevin Keller. Indeed, judging by his interview with Out in 2018, it's unlikely we'll ever hear of the actor engaging in any spoiled Hollywood brat behavior any time soon. Even after two seasons of appearing in The CW drama, the star still seemed humbled by his situation.

Referring to how he won the fan favorite role, Cott said, "I am either the luckiest actor in the world, or maybe they really just had no other actor to cast." The CMU graduate also discussed flying out to Vancouver just 24 hours after bagging the part: "I remember sitting there, knowing I'm going to be there for six months and thinking, like, 'Holy smokes, I have a job and it's going to be on TV and I'm working with these actors that are really good.' Just that I have a job in acting is super cool, and to be on a job that millions and millions and millions of people are watching — I geek out about it."

Cott later got the chance to showcase his musical skills alongside his acting during his seven-season stint in the Archie Comics adaptation. So is there anything he isn't good at? Well, yes. The star added, "I always wanted to be good at sports but I just wasn't — my dad always says I'm a late bloomer."
