Perri Nemiroff is the senior producer at Collider where she hosts and produces the interview series, Collider Ladies Night, a show geared towards highlighting the need-to-know female voices in film and television.
The Big Picture After a hugely successful seven-season run, Riverdale came to an end in August 2023 with its 137th episode. Yes, being part of such a show is a blessing, but there’s a significant amount of pressure that comes with answering the question, “What’s next?” Camila Mendes is powering through that pressure right now in a big way — as a multi-hyphenate.
While she wasn’t initially thrilled with the Tisch drama training studio she was sorted into, she soon came to realize that Playwrights Horizons did in fact make her a well-rounded artist, one well prepared to soar as both an actor and as a producer. She explained: “Nothing can prepare you for it. I just think there's a common misconception about the glamor of Hollywood in general and how everything seemed so great on the outside, but on the inside you're like, ‘I don't know what the fuck I'm doing.’ I was winging it, you know what I mean? I didn't think the show was going to be that level of a success. I mean, I thought it had the potential to be, but you're kind of thrust into the industry not knowing anything.
Close And Mendes isn’t the only Riverdale cast member forging forward with their career while wearing multiple hats and influencing projects for the better. Madelaine Petsch is an executive producer on the upcoming The Strangers films, with Chapter 1 due out in theaters on May 17th. Meanwhile, Cole Sprouse is using his platform to support first-time feature filmmakers.
“I adore Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa. He was the dream showrunner for a million reasons because he cared so much and he wanted everyone to be happy, he wanted everyone to feel good, and I think that's a very beautiful quality. I could always call him and talk to him about something if there was an issue. He was very present.”
“She's been such a mentor to me in my career. For so much career advice, I go to her because she's like a friend, but she also feels like an older sister. She said something to me when I was in my head about my career and worried about the age old, like, 'Will anyone ever take me seriously? Will I always this, this and this?’ And she said something really sweet that I try to remind myself .
