Robert Ben Garant Movies
Known to many as the mustachioed Deputy Travis Junior on the farcical
Reno 911!,
Robert Ben Garant first made an impression with audiences on the sketch-comedy show
The State, which ran on MTV from 1993 to 1995. The show's bizarre and outlandish sensibilities gave viewers a taste of what was to come with
Garant, who would take a break from film and television during the late '90s, only to return in 2003 to help create, write, and act in
Reno 911!, which was a hit on Comedy Central.
Garant then re-teamed with his writing partner
Thomas Lennon to pen the scripts for
Herbie: Fully Loaded,
The Pacifier, and
Night at the Museum. In 2007,
Garant and the rest of the cast of
Reno 911! brought their show to the big screen, with
Reno 911!: Miami, and that same year,
Garant put on both the writer's and director's hat with the over-the-top ping-pong comedy
Balls of Fury. In 2009 he wrote the script for Night at the Museum: Battle of the Smithsonian. ~ Cammila Collar, Rovi
