Jughead (shortened to Jug or Juggie) is the best friend of vocalist/guitarist Archie Andrews. Jughead is a smart, sharp-tongued, laid-back, and eccentric high school student. He is obsessed with eating food and in some storylines is asexual. Most see him as being lazy. He can be identified by his long nose, half-closed eyes, "S" sweatshirt, and whoopee cap[2] (a crown-like warped and trimmed fedora hat). Jughead is portrayed by Cole Sprouse in the live-action CW series, Riverdale and Mihir Ahuja in The Archies.
