What Is Going On With The Suite Life Twins Cole And Dylan Sprouse
Dylan Returned To Acting With A Dark Thriller
Photo: Dismissed/NetflixMoving away from his comedic roots, Dylan snagged a starring role in the 2017 indie thriller Dismissed. He plays Lucas Ward, a student determined to get a good grade, one who will stop at absolutely nothing to get what he wants from his teacher. This was one of the first roles he took since graduating from NYU.
Cole Landed The Leading Role Of Jughead On 'Riverdale'

In particular, fans got behind his character's romance with female lead Betty. Why? Perhaps it is because Cole and the actress playing Betty, Lili Reinhart, dated in real life as well.
Nude Photos Of Dylan Leaked Online

He responded in a genial fashion, Tweeting, "I messed up... but I'd be a fool not to own up to it. Got to move past it I suppose." Dylan later stated that he wasn't ashamed of the photos; he had just put his trust in the wrong person.
They Graduated From NYU With Honors

"It gave such a powerful perspective on how the industry works and operates. In enabling us to study other paths and other understandings and ideas, it really empowered my understanding of the industry and how to act and how to be within it as well. I really am so glad we decided to go away for a little bit."
In True Twin Fashion, They Swapped Places At Graduation
The Sprouses truly took "twinning" to a whole new level. When graduating from NYU, they switched places: Cole taking Dylan's diploma and Dylan Cole's. Dylan told Teen Vogue: "In fact, if you look up my graduating photo you'll see. We just decided, you know, there's no reason not to. No one's going to notice."
Dylan Opened A Hipster Meadery In Williamsburg

Dylan Was Accused Of Cheating On His Girlfriend On Instagram

Dylan denied the allegations on Twitter (sort of), Tweeting, "I will say this and only this: by adhering to an assumption based on limited information, you neglect the complicated nature of this issue." He added, "This is complicated and it will remain complicated, but those who know me and who have known me, know well enough what kind of person I am."
Dylan Self-Identifies As A Neo-Pagan

Photo: Pixabay/CC0 1.0Having majored in video game design at NYU, Dylan has gotten really involved in gaming. He became assistant game designer on a project called Reborn while still in college in 2013. What made it so intriguing? Dylan told NYU Local:
“With video games, everything is the narrative. If you think about it, the way you design it is like mechanics, dynamics, and then aesthetics. As a player, you first see the aesthetics, and then you play and you’re like, ‘Oh, I really like the controls!’ And then you realize the mechanics, so it’s backwards for the player.”
They Turned Down A "Suite Life" Spinoff
After Suite Life on Deck ended, the twins wanted to continue working with Disney. They pitched the network a Suite Life spin-off, but Disney turned them down. According to Dylan, Disney then came back and pitched them virtually the same idea, just set in Miami and featuring fellow Disney star Selena Gomez. Dylan told The Huffington Post:
"And Cole and I turned to each other... we basically laughed in their face and walked out. That was the last meeting we had with Disney. We were just like no, that was the end.”
Cole Is A Legitimately Talented Photographer

Cole Runs An Instagram Account Featuring People Photographing Him
Photo: Pixabay/CC0 1.0In addition to his professional photography, Cole snaps pics of people who are trying to photograph him. He has a separate account just for such shots (@camera_duels on Instagram). In one caption, Cole joked, "Did my Instagram backfire? Have I actually stoked the flame rather than douse it? No matter, I'll duel all of you if need be."
Yes, Dylan Runs An Instagram Account For His Pet Bulldog
Photo: Magnus/InstagramWho doesn't have an account showing off their pet? Dylan Sprouse loves to post pics of his bulldog, Magnus, on Instagram. The shots show the wrinkly wonder at every stage of life, running the gamut from riding on the NYC subway (in a tote bag) to roaming the city streets, playing in the dog park, and cuddling his owner.
