The Sprouse Twins' Divergent Paths: From Tipton Hotel to Hollywood Blockbusters
The careers of Dylan and Cole Sprouse, who played the iconic Zack and Cody Martin, have followed fascinatingly different trajectories since they graduated from the S.S. Tipton. After taking a break from acting to attend New York University, both brothers have carved out distinct niches in Hollywood, proving they are more than just child stars.
Cole Sprouse became a television staple again, captivating audiences as the brooding, narrative-driven Jughead Jones on *Riverdale* for seven seasons. His 2025 projects, particularly *I Wish You All The Best*, showcase his commitment to meaningful, character-driven roles that explore complex themes.
Dylan Sprouse, meanwhile, has focused heavily on film, often taking on roles in the romantic drama and thriller genres. His upcoming 2025 thriller *Under Fire* and his work as an executive producer on *The Duel* highlight his desire to explore roles both in front of and behind the camera. Dylan also maintains his entrepreneurial spirit, running his popular meadery, All-Wise Meadery, a venture that showcases his creative interests outside of acting.
Behind the Camera: Phill Lewis's Unexpected Role as a Sitcom Director
While many viewers remember Phill Lewis for his frantic "Zack and Cody!" shouts as Mr. Moseby, his most impactful work in the 2020s has been as a director. Lewis has leveraged his years of sitcom experience to become one of the most in-demand directors for multi-camera comedies.
His directorial credits extend far beyond the Disney Channel, where he directed eight episodes of *The Suite Life on Deck*. He has helmed episodes for major network and streaming shows, including *Mike & Molly*, *2 Broke Girls*, and *The Odd Couple*. His continuous work throughout 2024 and 2025, including episodes for various comedy series and his rumored involvement in the *Scrubs* reboot, solidifies his status as a key figure in modern television production. This career pivot from beloved character actor to seasoned director is perhaps the most successful behind-the-scenes transformation of the entire cast.
Major Milestones: Babies, Blockbusters, and a Mini-Reunion
The personal and professional lives of the female leads have been equally eventful in the last year:
- Brenda Song’s Disney Return: Her involvement in *Zootopia 2* is a huge win, bringing her back into the Disney fold alongside her partner, Macaulay Culkin. This follows her successful transition into more mature, dramatic roles on streaming services.
- Debby Ryan’s Personal News: The announcement of her pregnancy in late 2025 was a massive, heartwarming update for fans. Debby has also continued to explore her creative interests, including her music career and roles in independent films, demonstrating her versatility beyond her Disney roots.
The Mini-Reunion That Broke the Internet
In a moment that delighted fans of both *The Suite Life of Zack & Cody* and *The Suite Life on Deck*, Dylan and Cole Sprouse had a recent mini-reunion with Phill Lewis. The trio posed together on the red carpet at the premiere of Dylan's film, *The Duel*, a moment that quickly went viral. While rumors of a full-scale *Suite Life on Deck* revival or reboot frequently surface, the cast has repeatedly expressed that they would only consider it if the script and concept were truly unique and compelling, rather than a simple retread of the past. For now, these small, genuine reunions are enough to keep the spirit of the S.S. Tipton alive.
From the twins' contrasting film careers to Phill Lewis's powerful directorial shift and the major life news from Brenda Song and Debby Ryan, the cast of The Suite Life on Deck continues to thrive. They have successfully navigated the challenging transition from child stars to adult actors and creatives, proving that their time on the S.S. Tipton was just the beginning of their impressive journeys.
