Veronica Lodge is a fictional character primarily known from the Archie Comics franchise, adapted into various movies and television shows. She is a central figure in the teenage drama, typically portrayed as a wealthy, sophisticated, and often fashion-conscious young woman.

Originating in Riverdale as a newcomer from New York City, Veronica's arrival often sparks romantic interest from both Archie Andrews and Reggie Mantle, creating a recurring love triangle. Her personality is generally characterized by her quick wit, sarcasm, and occasional vanity, though she is also depicted as fiercely loyal to her friends, particularly Betty Cooper.

On TV, Veronica has been adapted in shows like "The Archie Show" (animated) and more recently in The CW's "Riverdale," where she is played by Camila Mendes. Movie representations include "Archie: To Riverdale and Back Again," where she was played by Lauren Holly. Across different media, Veronica’s core traits of wealth, intelligence, and friendship remain relatively consistent, shaping her interactions within the Riverdale universe.
