I Just Took a Look at Cole Sprouse’s Net Worth, and Now I Want Him to Adopt Me
Important analogy: Much like cheese is best enjoyed with a giant goblet of wine (I’M FINE, MOM), the world is best enjoyed with a metaphorical giant goblet of Cole Sprouse. This perfect soul deserves to be one of the highest-paid actors in Hollywood as compensation for winning the Oscar for Best Moody Hair Coif*, and it looks like the Powers That Be agree with my assessment because he’s been a millionaire for a WHILE now. Meanwhile, I’m over here reheating two-day-old pizza (again, I’M FINE, MOM).
An-y-way, here’s a thorough report of what’s lurking in Cole’s bank account. Please be advised that side effects of reading this article may include yelling at your parents for never putting you in acting classes.
*Not a real thing, obviously.
First, Let’s Talk About Cole’s Paycheck From The Suite Life of Zack & Cody
Freakin’ get this: The Sprouse twins (that’d be Cole and Dylan) reportedly made $20,000 per episode of The Suite Life of Zack & Cody—each. There were 87 episodes total. So, well, $20K multiplied by 87 is $1.7 million-ish (I’m really great at math!), which isn’t too shabby for a kid.
And Don’t Forget About Cole’s Role on Friends, Friend
As a reminder, Cole played Ross’s son, Ben, on Friends, and no, it’s not like he earned millions of dollars for the role, but it was a pretty sweet recurring gig! It’s unclear how much money Cole actually took home for the job, but considering Friends is never not airing reruns, we can probably assume he still receives hefty residuals.
Then There’s His Commercial Work
Cole was in a ton of commercials as a kid, although the specific details of his paychecks aren’t publicly known. Commercial work tends to range from $ to $$$, but we can assume our dude made a lot considering he was already a household name for Disney-watching preteens. On that note, here’s Cole and Dylan doing something resembling rapping (maybe?) in the name of yogurt:
Also, I refuse to give Big Daddy its own section, so I’m just gonna throw in the fact that he was in that Adam Sandler movie. The end.
Finally, He’s Made a TON Playing Jughead
Cole’s biggest income stream aside from The Suite Life has been—you guessed it—Riverdale. The hit CW show is in its fourth season, and back in October 2018, Variety reported that the Core Four—aka Cole Sprouse, Lili Reinhart, Camila Mendes, and KJ Apa—each earn $40,000 every episode. There have been 66 episodes, so (*dusts off brilliant math skills once again*) Cole has made somewhere around $2.6 million for the show.

So, What’s His Total Net Worth?
According to Celebrity Net Worth, Cole was worth $8 million BEFORE Riverdale. But if you add in his Jughead salary (keeping in mind tax deductions), he’s worth more like $10 million and counting these days. Deserves every penny, tbh.
