Actress Bernadette Beck, known for playing the character Peaches ‘N Cream on the popular The CW show Riverdale, has slammed the producers of the show.
In a new interview, the actress claims she was cast only to make the show look diverse, and was essentially ignored by the show’s writers.Beck tells Elle that her experience appearing in the third and fourth seasons of the show left her suffering from anxiety.
She says she experienced death threats and body shaming over the portrayal of her character from the show’s fans. Beck also says her treatment by the show’s creative minds wasn’t much better.“I get it, there’s always a protagonist and antagonist, but I never had much of a story plot or enough character development to even be considered.
