SPOILER ALERT! This post contains details from Wednesday’s episode of Riverdale.
Hiram Lodge is back to cause chaos in Riverdale.
Mark Consuelos reprised his character as the conniving father of Camila Mendes’ Veronica Lodge during Wednesday night’s episode, titled “The Crucible.” In this iteration of Riverdale, which is set in the 1950s, Hiram is a big-time actor living in Los Angeles who comes to town under the guise that he misses his daughter and wants a taste of the small town life. But some things never change, and Hiram has an ulterior motive up his sleeve.
You see, the country is currently in the midst of the Red Scare and Hiram has found himself the latest target of McCarthyism. He tells Veronica that, after a very innocent recent trip to Cuba, he’s been flagged as a communist sympathizer and he needs Veronica to lie on his behalf, testifying that she was on the trip and didn’t witness anything nefarious. Of course, Hiram’s own lie soon unravels, and Veronica finds out that her father actually took a meeting with Fidel Castro himself during that trip to Cuba.
No matter what the decade, it turns out Hiram is just as conniving as ever.
As Riverdale is coming to an end with Season 7, it looks like this is the last that the town will see of Hiram Lodge. Consuelos confirmed to Deadline that this is his only episode and it “definitely feels like goodbye.”
Consuelos spoke with Deadline about returning to Riverdale once more and reminisced about his special moments on set, including acting alongside his son Michael. He also discussed his latest endeavor, hosting Live! with his wife, Kelly Ripa.

Naman Ramachandran Julian Sands, the British actor who was confirmed dead last week after going missing during a mountain hike, once spoke about “dangerous” mountain climbing in an interview. In his last U.K. interview with the Radio Time, conducted six months before he was discovered, Sands described climbing as “solace and a sort of existentialist self-negation, but equally a self-affirmation,” adding “if you can deal with dangerous mountains, you can certainly deal with life as an actor — the two are quite complementary.” The interview is published in the latest issue of the Radio Times. Sands was reported missing near Mt. Baldy in Southern California on Jan. 13. He was 65. The actor, who pivoted from the romantic lead in “A Room With a View” to playing sinister characters in films like “Warlock,” had gone hiking in the snow-covered Baldy Bowl area, about 45 miles east of Los Angeles. He was an experienced mountaineer, but conditions in the mountains had been treacherous, with the potential of avalanches.

He’s Harrison fucking Ford. There is this aura about him. But he dispels that really quickly because he’s such a cool guy. He’s everything a movie star should be.
