Dylan and Cole Sprouse first captured our attention over 25 years ago in the heartwarming film Big Daddy, starring alongside Adam Sandler. Now in their 30s, the brothers have grown into adults and aren’t as closely connected as they once were, but they remain as supportive and close as ever.

Born in 1992, the Sprouse twins began their acting careers at a very young age, sharing roles in commercials and TV series. Their first significant recognition came from Grace Under Fire, where they played Patrick Kelly from 1993 to 1998. The role that really launched them into stardom was in Big Daddy (1999), where their natural comedic timing won over audiences.
