Brian Peck was recently exposed in the Quiet on Set: The Dark Side of Kids TV documentary. In the early 2000s, Brian used to work on set of Nickelodeon shows like All That and The Amanda Show. He would sometimes portray small roles on the shows, but mostly, he worked on them as a dialogue coach. 

In 2003, he was arrested for 11 counts of various charges. All of them were different kinds of doing extremely inappropriate and harmful things to minors.

At the time, this was reported in a press release from the Los Angeles Police Department. According to the press release, the actual crimes he was arrested for happened about two years prior. 

The press release also said that the victim was someone Brian was coaching at the time, as a dialogue coach. But one thing that it didn’t say was who the actual victim was. We didn’t know their identity until very recently when the Quiet on Set documentary came out. 

Drake Bell Got a Full Confession From Brian

In the documentary, Drake Bell from The Amanda Show and Drake & Josh came forward as the victim in the case. He opened up about his experience and how bad things really got. 

Drake called the things Brian did to him extensive and brutal. He also talked about the trauma that he suffered that he’s still dealing with even to this day. 

He also opened up about how he finally snapped and told his mom about everything. Drake’s mom immediately called the police, and that’s how the investigation began. 

Drake explained that he had to tell the police everything that happened in excruciating detail. It was really difficult for him. 

But he said that the worst part was when he had to call Brian on the phone and make him admit to everything. It was a setup and the Police were listening and recording the call. 

Drake said that he was able to get pretty much a full confession out of Brian. The next year, in 2004, Brian was sent to prison.

In the trial, he pleaded no contest to two charges of CSA against him. He spent 16 months behind bars and was also ordered to officially register as an offender.

Drake said he was hoping that would be the end of Brian’s career. He believed that Brian would never be allowed to work with kids again. 

Brian Went on to Work for Disney

But Brian’s crimes and prison time didn’t completely stop his Hollywood career. He would still work in the field for many years to come. 

Pretty soon after he was released from prison, he actually got hired by Disney to work on one of their shows. It was a job on The Suite Life of Zack and Cody

He was hired to record voiceovers for three episodes of the show, although Variety confirmed that he recorded these remotely and was never actually on set for the show. He also reportedly never interacted with any of the cast and crew, most importantly none of the child actors. In the end, his work for the show wasn’t used in the final version of the episodes. 

Variety also reported that an insider confirmed to them that Brian was ultimately fired from the show. Apparently, Disney hadn’t been aware of Brian’s past crimes against children. 

Once they learned about it, they immediately fired him and removed him from the show. They replaced his voice lines with new ones and removed him from the credits. 

Brian’s Career Has Slowly Fizzled Out

But even after that, Brian still got hired to work on more TV and movie projects. According to his IMDb page, he worked, among other things, on the 2008 movie Forever Strong. He was an associate producer for the movie and also had a small role in it. 

Brian also worked on the 2009 movie Jack and the Beanstalk. He had a small role as the Emperor and also worked on set as a dialogue coach. 

Jack and the Beanstalk is a movie for kids that involved child actors. According to IMDb, Brian wasn’t credited for his appearance as the Emperor. 

Later on, he also worked on the 2013 series Anger Management with Charlie Sheen in the main role. He was mainly a dialogue coach but also had a brief appearance in one episode as a TMZ announcer. Once again, he was not credited for his appearance. 

He was also in the 2015 movie Freaks of Nature. It was another minor role, as a zombie dad. Once again, he was not credited for it. 

But over the years and into the 2010s, he worked on fewer and fewer projects. In 2019, he worked as a researcher for Making Apes: The Artists Who Changed Film.

It’s a documentary about the making of Planet of the Apes. This is Brian’s last credit on his IMDb page, as of now at least. 

Now, five years later, it seems like his career in Hollywood is finally over. Since 2019, he’s been keeping a low profile and living his life in private.
