Justice For Barb: "Stranger Things" Breakout Star Gets Cast In CW's "Riverdale"

Shannon Purser will play comic character Ethel Muggs in the new series.

Good news for those still mourning Barb on this summer's Netflix obsession, Stranger Things — the actress who portrayed the fan favorite is heading to Riverdale High.

It was just announced that Shannon Purser has signed on for a small arc on Riverdale, the CW's upcoming Archie reboot.

Purser will play Ethel Muggs, a character who has a huge crush on Jughead in the comics, for at least three episodes.

The show is set for a midseason debut on CW, so fans will have to wait just a little longer to get their highly-coveted #JusticeForBarb.
