Dylan Sprouse refused to inform a scripted “fat joke” about his Suite Lifetime of Zack & Cody onscreen mom, portrayed by Kim Rhodes, when the present was going on, and now he’s revealing why.
Throughout an look on Andy Cohen’s Radio Andy SiriusXM present on Thursday whereas selling his upcoming movie, The Duel, the actor defined he simply doesn’t discover these sorts of jokes humorous.
“There’s a better joke somewhere else unless you’re talking about yourself,” he informed the host. “Like, unless it’s self-referential, which I find is fun, but if you’re pointing the finger at people and like talking about how they look, I just don’t tend to find that very funny in general.”
In November 2023, Rhodes stopped by the Again to the Finest podcast and revealed that when she was pregnant, the writers included a joke about her weight that Sprouse saved skipping over when doing the scene. The manager producer yelled minimize and informed him to say the joke, however he wouldn’t.
“He goes, ‘I would not disrespect any woman that way, let alone this woman. You write something funny and I’ll say it,’” the actress recalled, including that Dylan and Cole Sprouse have been all the time defending her and everybody on the set of Suite Life. “The fact that they, at such a young age, understood that it was their job to make sure everybody else was able to do their job, was really impressive.”
On the Thursday radio present, Cohen identified it was spectacular that Sprouse felt assured sufficient to say that to an government producer when he was 14 or 15 years outdated.
“I mean, you’d be amazed at what having your own show at 11 will do for your confidence,” the Lovely Catastrophe actor joked, to which the host replied, “You were a benevolent king.” Sprouse agreed and added, “No, no, because I was a huskier young lad who again, really didn’t come into himself until he was like 18. My dad also kept us very, very grounded.”
