We've known Cole Sprouse for a long time. You may recognize him (and his twin brother, Dylan) from roles in Big Daddy, Friends, and The Suite Life of Zack and Cody, but in recent years, things have changed. Now, Cole is an NYU graduate, and he's starring as Jughead Jones on The CW's Riverdale. This has yielded a lovely bromance with costar KJ Apa, a new "it" couple with Betty (Lili Reinhart), and a startling realization: that Cole is very, very broody and handsome. Join us on this thirst journey, won't you?

Bye.
