Riverdale star Lili Reinhart has officially signed up for a new feature film project in the form of Netflix drama Plus/Minus. Emerging in 2010, the Ohio-born actress enjoyed a number of roles on screens both big and small. Those included a brief recurring role on the Fox comedy Surviving Jack. Her big break, however, came via The CW’s surprise hit in 2017. As the Archie Comics character, Betty Cooper, Reinhart has served as a popular element of Riverdale for five seasons — offering a fresh and multifaceted take on the role.

Reinhart rapidly channeled Riverdale‘s success to secure even more movie work. She enjoyed a prominent role in Hustlers, starring opposite Jennifer Lopez. She also starred in and executive produced Amazon’s Chemical Hearts. According to THR, however, Reinhart has already lined up her next film project. Directed by Wanuri Kahiu, Reinhart will star as Natalie in the time-bending drama titled Plus/Minus. Working from a script by April Prosser, Reinhart will once again also serve as an executive producer. The film will release via Netflix and gift Reinhart as much a chance at dual, distinct roles as Riverdale has with Betty and Dark Betty.

SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY

Renewed for a sixth season, Reinhart’s work on Riverdale has been set to continue. Conversely, no release date for Plus/Minus has been announced. However, the official synopsis released by Netflix reads:

On the eve of her college graduation, Natalie’s life diverges into two parallel realities: one in which she becomes pregnant and must navigate motherhood as a young adult in her Texas hometown, the other in which she moves to L.A. to pursue her career. In both journeys throughout her 20s, Natalie experiences life-changing love, devastating heartbreak, and rediscovers herself.

John Atkinson has been a news and feature writer for Screen Rant since late 2018. Before that, he had articles published across a number of different outlets. A graduate of the University of London, John was raised on a small island by television and movies. As such, he pursued a career in screenwriting and film journalism when it became apparent that actually becoming Spider-Man was impossible. John’s fondest wish is to one day produce a film of his own. Until then, he’s more than happy to spend countless hours just talking about them.

John’s love of film and television defies genre and sometimes even logic. Nothing is off-limits to his passion – be it Marvel, DC, Rian Johnson’s Star Wars, or Tommy Wiseau’s latest cinematic offering.

Away from screens, John can often be found in a park reading mystery and/or fantasy novels, jumping up and down at various music events, or thinking too deeply about Keanu Reeves’ career and why Edgar Wright doesn’t have an Oscar.
