After showrunner Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa announced the series’ ending on Instagram and the sixth season finale revealed the next season’s setting, Jughead and the rest of the group would return to the year 1955 in Riverdale Season 7.

It remains to be seen how long they will be staying in the 1950s era, but Aguirre-Sacasa promised the final season would address some questions fans have from the previous season, including the return to the past. “It is not a hard, complete break with what has come before,” he told Decider in an interview in July 2022. “Jughead remembers everything that happened.
