Cole Sprouse nearly bared it all in his latest social media post.

The "Riverdale" star gave a peek at his bare butt in a nude mirror selfie he shared on Instagram Tuesday. It appeared to have been edited to give Sprouse a larger backside.

"Good morning to my publicity team," the 29-year-old actor wrote in the caption.

The post, which has received more than 4 million likes as of writing, sent the internet into a frenzy, with many of his celebrity pals and followers commenting with laughing emojis, including his "Riverdale" co-star Skeet Ulrich, who plays the Sprouse's character Jughead's father on The CW series.

"Cole and the giant peach," one follower wrote.

Sprouse's "Moonshot" co-star Lana Condor simply commented, "No," while "Riverdale" actress Vanessa Morgan left a skull emoji.

"Hate to see you go, love to watch you leave," "Scream" star Mason Gooding added.

Another pal, Damon Baker, joked, "Why the long bottom?"

"Annnnnd just as it left my consciousness, it’s back again," Zelda Williams wrote.

Sprouse is known to showcase his sense of humor on social media. He even launched a second Instagram account that captures photos of his fans secretly trying to take pictures of him in public, according to People.

Sprouse's post comes weeks after The CW announced that "Riverdale" would be ending after its upcoming seventh season.

"I'm a big believer in giving series that have long runs an appropriate sendoff," network chairman and CEO Mark Pedowitz said in May. "We want to make sure it goes out the right way."

While this may be sad news for "Riverdale" fans, Sprouse told GQ that most of the series' actors were more than ready to "wrap it up with a bow."

In December last year, he said that the 100th episode of the series based on the beloved "Archie Comics" characters was his all-time "favorite."

"I really loved it," he told Entertainment Tonight of the milestone episode. "I thought the script was really considerate of the entire lineage of the show. I know it can be a bit confusing, but I think it does a really, really good job of speaking directly to the audience who has stuck with us for a while."

"Riverdale" also stars KJ Apa, Lili Reinhart, Camila Mendes, Marisol Nichols, Madelaine Petsch, Mark Consuelos, Mädchen Amick, Casey Cott and Charles Melton.

"Riverdale" Season 7 will premiere in early 2023. No exact debut or finale date or number of episodes has been announced as of writing.
