Cole Sprouse began acting in American television series even before he learned to walk and talk well. Hand in hand with his twin brother, the young actor bathed in fame and devoted himself to work in front of the camera. But then the boys grew up, and each went his own creative way.
Cole Mitchell Sprouse was born on August 4, 1992 in Arezzo (Italy) 15 minutes later than his twin brother Dylan. The artist's father and mother are Americans Matthew and Melanie, who taught English in Tuscany. The name of the child was in honor of the jazz artist Nat King Cole.
4 months after the birth of their sons, the family returned to Long Beach (California). In 1997, Cole's parents divorced, and the brothers stayed with their father and stepmother. In Los Angeles, the stormy creative life of the guys began. The Sprouses began acting in films literally from the cradle, but this did not stop the little stars from getting a good secondary education at the prestigious Laurel Springs Distance School.
In 2011, the Sprouses decided to temporarily interrupt their acting career and enroll in New York University. Cole studied archeology and other humanities, and Dylan studied video game design. During her studies, the celebrity had a chance to visit Asian and European expeditions. And at excavations in Bulgaria, the performer even found a mask of the ancient Greek god Dionysus.
After graduating from university, Cole was faced with a choice: work in a natural resource management laboratory in Brooklyn or a new series, for which the agent had already enrolled the young man to audition. Sprouse chose the movie and did not regret the decision at all.
The artistic biography of Cole and Dylan began thanks to his maternal grandmother. Actress and drama educator Jonin Booth Wright gave the twins' parents the idea to get their grandchildren into show business from an early age.
So, at 6 months, the brothers appeared on the television screen in an advertisement for diapers, and at 8 - in the ABC rating project Grace on Fire, in which the Sprouses played the same character Patrick Kelly. In the mid-1990s, the series was a success, and adaptations subsequently appeared in a number of countries (including Russia).
It is worth noting that twin babies are in demand in American cinema because of the law governing the duration of filming newborns. To reduce the cost of the shooting process, a child who has worked out the daily norm is replaced by another. This is how the famous twins of the 90s Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen began their careers.
In 2000, Cole (for the first time without a brother) appeared in 7 episodes of the TV series Friends, in which the artist got the role of Ben, the son of Ross Geller (David Schwimmer) and his ex-wife Carol (Jane Sibbett). According to Sprouse, during the filming it was difficult to focus on work, because then the performer fell in love with Jennifer Aniston, who played Ross' girlfriend Rachel Green.
In 2017, The CW launched the Riverdale project, based on the Archie comics, which are not about people with supernatural abilities, but about teenagers with their dreams and problems. True, every season in the film began to appear more and more strange moments. Gradually, the plot moved away from the original, but some artists tried to keep the connection. For example, Cole chewed something in every episode, just like the comic book character.
In 2019, another project appeared in Sprouse's filmography - "A meter apart." Cole's partner on the set was Hayley Lou Richardson. The melodrama turned out to be commercially successful - with a budget of $ 7 million, box office receipts covered expenses 13 times.
In 2017, it became known that Cole's girlfriend was Riverdale co-star Lili Reinhart. Celebrities hid their feelings for the first time, but materials that testify to a love affair leaked to the Web. These include paparazzi shots taken in Paris during the actors' promotional trip, which captured the couple's kiss, and amateur fan photos taken during the artists' trip to Hawaii.Now Sprouse is happy with model Ari Fournier.
A busy social life and a busy work schedule do not prevent the star from delighting fans. Cole has 2 Instagram accounts. In the official one, the performer shares the news, and in the other, he arranges a photo duel with fans, posting pictures of those who tried to secretly capture the idol.
After the end of the 5th season of Riverdale, when the characters made a time jump, the audience of the series was worried that they would no longer see the continuation of the fascinating story with the participation of Sprouse. But the producers were quick to reassure the fans - the premiere of the 6th part was announced for November 2021.Even before the start, it became clear that there would be more mysticism in the new season, as the creators decided to combine the project with another tape from the Archie Comics universe - Chilling Adventures of Sabrina. In the image of the messenger of hell, Kiernan, Shipka visited Riverdale.
