Camila Mendes is celebrating the release of her new Netflix film by sharing a series of
photos from set, but fans noticed that in between the excitement, did Cami seemingly
shade her Riverdale producers with a cryptic message on social media?
What’s up guys, it’s Sussan Mourad here with Clevver News, and you can take the girl
out of the Riverdale drama, but apparently can’t take the Riverdale drama out of the
girl…
That’s what a number of fans suspected when Camila took to Instagram Thursday to promote
her newest Netflix film Dangerous Lies.
Yesterday marked the premiere of the newest Netflix thriller Dangerous Lies, which centers
around a girl named Katie Franklin (played by Camila), who takes a job as a caretaker
to a wealthy elderly man when the two become close until he dies and names her his sole
heir.
She and her husband eventually find out that they’d been sucked into a web of lies, murder,
mystery, all that good stuff.
But while fans try to solve the mystery along the way, one clue (IRL) didn’t seem to pass
them by, which could be found on Camila’s Instagram story.
We’re gonna break down all the details, but before we do, don’t forget to subscribe

Alright, so we’re all well-aware of Cami’s Riverdale character Veronica Lodge, who is
currently a senior in high school, and has been in high school for the past four seasons.
But it seems her Dangerous Lies character is a bit more grown up, complete with a wedding
ring and even a baby bump.
That’s why fans are looking a little closer at one of her Instagram stories, where she
shares a selfie while holding a thumbs up and points to a wedding ring, writing, “How
I felt about portraying a character that has already graduated high school.”
By the looks on her face it's pretty clear Cami was joking and seemed to make a lighthearted
joke about playing Veronica, who still hasn’t graduated high school, when Cami will be turning
26 years old IRL.
And some fans actually threw shade towards Riverdale as they tuned into Dangerous Lies
last night.
One user pointed out that, “i'm now watching dangerous lies.
riverdale's camila mendes is here so i guess it's time to find out if she can outgrow that
hot mess of a show.”
Another user wrote, “I can’t wait to see @CamilaMendes in dangerous lies.
finally she is being recognised for her amazing acting, unlike riverdale where they act like
she doesn’t exist..”
But what do you guys think about Cami playing a different character from Veronica?
I’m curious to hear whether you also think Riverdale producers hold Cami back from showing
her true talent on the show as some fans shared on Twitter, so be sure to chime in down below
in the comments.
We actually may not have to wait that much longer for the Riverdale High School crew
to say goodbye to their beloved classmates, as some fans are convinced that Season 5 will
start with a major time jump.
And I’m not talking about a time jump from high school to college -- we’re talking
YEARS after graduation.
One theory released back in February suggests that we won’t even see the cast head off
to college, but that the fifth season will pick up five years into the future.
The idea began when TVLine reported that “the producers of an established series are toying
with the idea of ending the current season with a massive timeline shift.”
A source quickly revealed to the outlet that the time jump being considered was a five-year
difference, and naturally, fans were LIVING for the idea, claiming that this would fit
perfectly into the series’ plot line.
One user wrote, “A time jump is the best way to do it.
They can’t follow them to a bunch of different schools.
There will be a mystery/problem that brings them all back to riverdale after college and
the show will continue from there.”
Another fan added, “if season 5 has a five year time jump, that will be the best thing
riverdale’s done since making cheryl and toni a couple.”
Others suggested that because Jughead’s dad and Veronica’s mom have officially left
the show, that this would make perfect sense, like this user who wrote, “The parents are
leaving because of the time jump, the kids are gonna be adults now so there’s no need
to focus on the parents anymore.
Toni, on the other hand, is probably gonna have more focus next season.”
I should point out that this could also call for more of Lucy Hale appearances considering
the series starring her character Katy Keene is also set five years into the future.
Although producers have yet to address the theories, thankfully we have Dangerous Lies
to hold us over while doing time in the Q, so be sure to check that out, streaming on
Netflix now!
