Dylan Sprouse’s tweets about Jared Leto emerge as sexual assault allegations come to light
Dylan Sprouse, the former child star known for his role in “The Suite Life of Zack & Cody,” has resurfaced a tweet made in 2018 that appears prescient in light of recent allegations against actor and musician Jared Leto. The comments made by Sprouse are gaining attention as Leto faces accusations of sexual misconduct from multiple individuals, including claims made in a recent documentary titled “Jared Leto: Hollywood’s Dark Secret.”
In a social media post from May 2018, Sprouse questioned Leto’s conduct with young female models, specifically addressing Leto directly on Twitter and asking, “Yo @JaredLeto now that you’ve slid into the dm’s of every female model aged 18-25, what would you say your success rate is?” At the time, Sprouse was 25, his partner model Barbara Palvin was 24, and Leto was significantly older at 46. Sprouse’s comment has taken on new meaning as Leto confronts serious allegations of inappropriate behavior, which have been detailed by a media source.
The documentary has garnered a considerable audience, as it includes accounts from ten women who have articulated experiences of traumatic sexual encounters with Leto between 2002 and 2016. Notably, four of the women allege they were minors at the time of these incidents. In addition, former associates of Leto’s band, 30 Seconds to Mars, have corroborated concerns about his interactions with underage girls, describing uncomfortable situations wherein Leto allegedly invited young fans to backstage areas and private environments.
Leto has publicly denied all allegations, labeling them as “absolutely and categorically false.” His statement insists that he has “never sexually assaulted anyone in my entire life.” These denials follow the emergence of previous allegations made in a 2025 exposé where nine women accused him of inappropriate sexual behavior. The latest revelations stand as the culmination of a troubling trend in accusations that have now unfolded over the past year.
The growing scrutiny surrounding high-profile figures in entertainment highlights an urgent need for discussions around accountability and respect toward women. As the narrative develops, the industry and its audiences will likely grapple with the implications of such serious accusations, seeking not only justice for those involved but also broader systemic change within its structures.
