Brian Robbins previously directed and produced The Perfect Score, starring Scarlett Johansson, the box-office hit Varsity Blues and Hardball, starring Keanu Reeves.

As a partner in Tollin/Robbins Productions (TRP), Robbins was producer (with Michael Tollin), of the film Dreamer, starring Kurt Russell, Dakota Fanning, Elisabeth Shue and Kris Kristofferson. TRP also produced the Paramount release Coach Carter, starring Samuel L. Jackson, which debuted #1 at the box office in January 2005. He also produced the Tollin-directed Radio with Cuba Gooding Jr. and Ed Harris.

Other films produced under the TRP banner include Summer Catch and Big Fat Liar, along with the documentary Hank Aaron: Chasing the Dream, which won a Peabody Award and was nominated for an Academy Award. TRP also recently produced the sequel to their 1993 documentary Hardwood Dreams, a gripping look at inner-city sports narrated by Wesley Snipes.

Along with Mike Tollin, Robbins is also responsible for four prime-time television series currently in production. Three of those air on The WB-Smallville, One Tree Hill and What I Like About You-and the fourth is the newly debuted Crumbs on ABC. TRP also produced The Days for ABC (the first project from the unique partnership between MindShare and ABC), ABC's I'm With Her, Arli$$ for HBO, several Nickelodeon series including All That (now in its 10th season), Kenan & Kel, The Amanda Show and Sports Theatre with Shaquille O'Neal, for which he received a Directors Guild Award. Additionally, Robbins is part of the team that created SlamBall which is currently being re-launched as a national sport.

Robbins and his partner Mike Tollin were honored by Girls, Inc. in 2003 and recently launched the L.A. chapter of the Chasing the Dream Foundation, which awards scholarships to underprivileged youth.
