Cole Sprouse Latest News, Photos, and Videos

Tonight’s the night – the Riverdale gang is graduating!

The all new episode is the final one before the series jumps forward seven years. This ep was originally meant to be the season six finale.

Showrunner Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa, who wrote the episode, revealed that not all of the characters made to the episode.

“Today’s a big day in #Riverdale. As excited/nervous as I was for my own high school graduation waaaay too many years ago. Somehow, this one means more. Not all of our characters survived to make it to graduation. Not all of the actors we wanted to come back were able to for various reasons (including Covid). But so grateful to everyone in this picture. And to many more who aren’t in the picture, but we’ll be seeing soon. Next stop: Seven years in the future…🚀🎢📸👀💥☠️,” he shared on Instagram, where he’s been sharing tidbits.

“All the secrets will come out; all the tears will flow,” Roberto shared the day before.

“The gang finally graduates, tonight. 🎓 a very sentimental, emotional episode for everyone who has been on this Riverdale journey with us since day 1,” Lili Reinhart shared on her social media.

“Everything changes tonight. @thecwriverdale,” KJ Apa added.

If you missed the good news, it was just announced that Riverdale has already been picked up for another season, along with many other CW shows!

“End of an era. What would’ve been our finale last year. Graduation. Next week’s episode of #Riverdale is one of our best.

Can you believe it’s already been four whole years since Riverdale came into our lives?!

One of the stars of the show, Lili Reinhart, took to her Instagram page to celebrate the January 26th anniversary.

“Riverdale premiered 4 years ago. And what a wild ride it has been since then. In honor of that— here are some pics from 5 years ago, when we were just little babies who had no idea that we were about to become family,” she wrote, along with photos from the pilot episode.

She shared even more pics on her story, and they include photos with co-stars Camila Mendes, KJ Apa, Madchen Amick and Cole Sprouse!

Riverdale showrunner Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa also memorialized the day.

“Four years ago today #Riverdale premiered on the @thecw. I took this photo in Vancouver, the night before we started shooting the pilot. It’s been an unbelievable journey. Eternal gratitude to everyone who’s helped bring these characters to life and to tell these crazy stories. The writers, the directors, the producers, the executives, the crew, the editors, and tTHE CAST. And, of course, to our amazing fans. I wasn’t sure this show would ever happen; and I still can’t believe we get to work on it. Love you and THANK YOU!! ❤️🔥💥💋🚀💪🏼🪟👀🎢🐍👠💃🏻☠️” he wrote with a photo of Ashleigh Murray, Madelaine Petsch, Camila, Lili and Cole.

Madelaine reposted his photo on her Instagram story and added her own caption, “What a wild ride. This photo was taken about 5 years ago when we shot the pilot of Riverdale.”

Cole Sprouse is dishing on his childhood crush on Jennifer Aniston!

The 28-year-old Riverdale actor opened up on The Drew Barrymore Show about how he had a crush on the actress when they worked together on Friends, and how it affected his acting.

In case you forgot, Cole starred as Ross’ son Ben in multiple episodes from 2000-2002.

“Yeah, I did [have a crush on her]. It actually made it quite difficult to work in front of her, I must admit. I was a child, I would stammer a lot and I would forget my lines,” Cole told Drew.

“I feel like I’d maintain my composure a bit more effectively now, but it was quite difficult when I was a kid,” he continued. “And I was teased a little bit by the crew because they saw it and I would just forget and be looking at her, but then the whole world had a crush on Jennifer Aniston so.”

Cole also opened up about rebooting The Suite Life of Zack and Cody, Bridgerton and more. Check it out in the video!

Riverdale‘s upcoming fifth season is getting closer and closer!

Ahead of the January premiere, we just got brand new poster for the series, which features stars KJ Apa, Camila Mendes, Cole Sprouse and Lili Reinhart.

Season five will “begin with our characters’ final days as students at Riverdale High. From an epic Senior Prom to a bittersweet Graduation, there are a lot of emotional moments and goodbyes yet to come—with some couples breaking up, as everyone goes their separate ways to college—or elsewhere.

Then, we will redock with our gang as young adults, all returning to Riverdale to escape their troubled pasts. And life—and romance—will only be more complicated now that they’re in their twenties…”

Earlier in the week, we got some new photos from the prom in the season premiere, and earlier in the month, the trailer for the first part of the season was released.
