Two parental figures will be leaving Riverdale after the fourth season.

Skeet Ulrich who plays Jughead Jones’ (Cole Sprouse) father F.P. Jones and Marisol Nichols who plays Hermione Lodge the mother of Veronica Lodge (Camila Mendes) will be departing the CW teen drama. They have been part of the cast of Riverdale since the first season.

Ulrich commented on his departure via Instagram, “I can’t even begin to thank you all for the unwavering support and love!! It is remarkable and deeply appreciated. I may be leaving Riverdale but my experience over the last four years will never leave my heart. A very special thanks to @writerras for giving me this opportunity.”

Riverdale was renewed for a fifth season in January.

Ulrich will be in the sci-fi feature BIOS alongside Tom Hanks and in the new Quibi series #FreeRayShawn. Nichols’ next project is in the horror Spiral with Samuel L. Jackson and Chris Rock.
