Zachary "Zack" Martin (played by Dylan Sprouse) is a character on The Suite Life of Zack & Cody and its sequel/spin-off The Suite Life on Deck. He is typically the unstudious, outgoing and often lazy twin, who usually dresses in skater clothes. At school, he is a straight "D" student, mentioned in the episode First Day of High School. Besides not doing well in school, Zack loves wood shop (which he is the best in class). Also, it is revealed that Zack is the older twin in the episode Arwinstein because he quotes "I think my baby brother put it right when he said...", and then he screamed out of the room. In Poor Little Rich Girl it is revealed that Zack is several minutes older than Cody. In "Foiled Again", it is revealed that the Martin family own a goldfish because Cody quotes "Take the fish out of the coffee pot and put him back in this."

Zack has an obsession with women, and has always had a crush on Maddie Fitzpatrick, who works at the candy counter. He always calls her "Sweet Thang". Zack usually picks on Cody, but becomes very protective of his brother when other people do it. He wants to be like his dad, Kurt, who is a rock star. He takes after his father in many ways.He is also a good friend of London Tipton.

He makes fun of his brother often, for many things (being smart, a germaphobe, etc.) and although he makes fun of his brother for crying and running home to their mom, it is shown that at times he can be a momma's boy. In Ghost of 613 when he got scared, he ran to his mom. And when he had to leave Carrie on the Sea School Cruise, he proved he will miss his mom and doesn't want her to go.

Zack also frequently gets into trouble sometimes along with Cody. He also is the lazier of the two, often bossing Cody around. He is the charming, cool, and greedy twin, but can also have a soft spot, and caring spot, for example in the episode: Election the two brothers run for president, and Zack almost beats him unfairly, but then helps Cody win. Zack is also known to put Cody down a lot. Most of the time he receives no retaliation for these actions although he seems to be intimidated by Cody when Cody stands up to him. Zack also can usually be found eating food, like chocolate, more often so than Cody, as evident in the episode Health & Fitness where Zack attempts to stop eating too much candy, possibly because Dylan has noted that he is the heavier of the twins. Zack also has no stage fright unlike Cody as seen in The Suite Life Goes Hollywood. Zack does not have as much knowledge but has as much common sense as his brother. Cody sometimes believes Zack doesn't care about the things he does, but this is disproven when Zack went to see his brother's speech instead of going to a Black Eyed Peas concert with his "friend" Theo. We rarely see Zack's emotional side, but when we do it is usually Cody or Maddie who's brought it on.

He and Cody are both huge fans of the Boston Red Sox, and hate the New York Yankees, although in the episode "Hotel Inspector", he asks for Yankees Tickets. Some of Zack's hobbies include skateboarding, basketball, and soccer, all of which he is good at. He is always playing pranks on his twin brother and is a lot messier than Cody is.

Zack did not pass 8th grade English, which causes him to go to summer school. In summer school, his brighter side is shown, making him not so popular and occasionally getting a wedgie (this may have been the reason he wouldn't do well in school). He has been frightened before by a horror movie called "Zombie Mom", which he was not allowed to see, and eventually gets punished for seeing it anyway. After seeing it, he gets combined nightmares and sleepwalking, putting furniture in front of the front door of the hotel to keep out the zombies imagined by him.

Despite Zack not doing well in school, he is pretty much as bright and clever as his brother. Zack knows how to manipulate others for his personal gains. He can create ingenious plots and schemes to try to get himself and his brother out of trouble. Cody always imagines Zack in jail. This came true in Boston Holiday and in the Suite Life on Deck episode Parrot Island.

Zack may sometimes be the obnoxious twin, but he is more aware of event than Cody, in To Catch a Thief, when the twins overhear the jewel thieves in the ballroom, when Zack asked "Did you hear that?", Cody replied with, "Yeah, the jewel thief wants mom's job." Another example is in Have A Nice Trip, when they see Harry dancing while they're in the vent, Zack told Cody that his leg was fine, but Cody, after he heard Holly con Mr. Moseby, he said, "Not that, I ordered a dozen of those Marshmallow Mushies."

In the spin off, Zack still maintains the same general personality he had on the Suite Life of Zack and Cody, but shows signs of maturity. While on the ship, he works at the juice bar, lives alone in the cabin that he stays in, and enjoys the freedom sea school grants him. He also had a crush on Bailey, but stopped liking her because she had too much "baggage." On The Suite Life of Zack and Cody Zack is usually pulling Cody into his schemes. On The Suite Life on Deck he involves London. On Zack and Cody's 16th birthday their Dad gives them a car. He and Cody's voices get much deeper in Season 2. Plus he is thinner than he was in any of the episodes in the original series.
