Acting Career

I figured I'd start with a small role on 'Law & Order', like so many actors do. I had zero roles before 'Riverdale', so I was incredibly lucky. I still can't believe it.

Camila Mendes Now
In 2023, the seventh and final season of "Riverdale" was released. After it premiered, Camila poked fun at the show's plot, which fell into a clichéd time-loop trap, comparing it to "Keeping Up with the Kardashians". She's often talked about wanting to move beyond teen roles, saying the entire cast had outgrown "Riverdale" and that "everyone is ready for a new chapter".Back in 2020, she made a splash starring in two very different projects: the romantic comedy "Palm Springs", alongside Tyler Hoechlin, and the psychological thriller "Dangerous Lies", where she had the leading role.
