Talented and handsome are just a couple of words to describe one of the hottest newcomers in Hollywood Robbie Amell who can currently be seen as one of the stars on Nickelodeon’s hottest new show “True Jackson VP.”  On the show, Robbie plays “Jimmy” love interest to the main character True (Keke Palmer) who gets a job as Vice President of the Youth Apparel department of a fashion company called Mad Style.  The show airs Saturday’s at 8:30 ET/PT on Nickelodeon.  In addition to True... Robbie can next be seen in the lead role of “Fred” in the original TV movie “Scooby Doo: The Beginning,” which will air September 13, 2009 on Cartoon Network and then on September 22, 2009 it will be released on DVD.  This marks the first ever non-animated movie for the channel.

Born in Toronto, Ontario Robbie’s journey to Tinseltown wasn’t like most young actors.  While his mother had secured a commercial and print agent for him at the age of six, Robbie was never consumed with Hollywood and concentrated his efforts into sports.  He was one of the best hockey players in his high school and had thoughts of going pro when everything changed.  When Robbie was a junior in high school he was called in for his first ever movie audition for a featured role as Eugene Levy and Carmen Electra’s son “Daniel” in the motion picture Cheaper By the Dozen 2.  He fit the mold of the character so well, that they writers gave him a line to say, and then another, and then another and eventually his role blew up to strong supporting and Robbie got the acting bug!  His parents were very supportive and told him to wait on college for a bit and follow his dream of acting.  So two short years later after graduation, Robbie packed up and headed for Los Angeles.

Robbie past motion credits includes The Alyson Stoner Project, the horror thriller Left for Dead and America Pie Presents: Beta House. His TV Credits include a multi recurring role on the critically acclaimed show “Life With Derek,” (which was his first ever TV audition), The CW’s “Runaway,” and a lead role in the ABC original TV movie. “Picture This” opposite Ashley Tisdale, which is also available on DVD.

When Robbie isn’t acting, one of his passions is being a part of One Heartland a non-profit charity that helps children with HIV and AIDS.  He loves to participate in their summer camps that are held every year in Malibu and Minnesota that brings children from all over the world (most from poverty) and give them an expense free week at the camp. 

When Robbie isn’t working or volunteering with his charity, he loves hanging out with his pet snake Wally West a.k.a. The Flash and playing sports and just being active. He loves to hike, hang out at the beach and calls himself an avid video game NERD!  He also loves all things sci-fi and super heroes!
