Lili Reinhart has reflected on how her seven-season run on 'Riverdale' helped shape the rest of her career, describing the experience as a perfect runway that prepared her for future roles. She shared that the long-running CW series gave her the foundation and confidence needed to transition smoothly into more complex and diverse projects, and she remains deeply appreciative of what it did for her professional growth.

Lili Reinhart's 'Hal & Harper'

Speaking about her new project 'Hal & Harper,' which streams weekly on Mubi, Reinhart explained that she stars alongside Cooper Raiff in a highly emotional and unconventional story. In the series, they play adult versions of their nine- and seven-year-old selves, moving between past and present timelines.

The narrative focuses on two co-dependent siblings facing their father's decision to have another child with his girlfriend, which forces them to confront unresolved childhood trauma linked to his emotional absence and the pressure of growing up too fast.

Lili Reinhart also revealed that 'Hal & Harper' was the very first project she filmed after 'Riverdale' wrapped. She took a short break to process the end of the show before jumping into the independent series, which was produced without a streaming platform attached. According to her, the team had to sell it after production, a rare process for television, and she expressed pride and relief that the show is finally available for audiences.
