EXCLUSIVE: Yet another talent agent is departing the ICM hallways, but this time it’s amicable and he’s not going to a competitor. Veteran Brian Bunnin is joining Vincent Herbert’s Streamline Entertainment as SVP Production and Development. “I’m thrilled to work alongside Vince and his entire groundbreaking team and look forward to continue working with ICM in a new capacity,” Bunnin said in a statement to Deadline. He began his tenure at ICM in 1999 as an intern while attending film school at USC and has been on teams representing Kevin Zegers, Stark Sands, Sean Kingston, The Game, Kathy Bates, and Kris Kristofferson.

This is a loss for ICM. Brian is a great agent who was homegrown and was always a team player. Glad he had the chance to get out now.
Brian is a great guy, was a solid and honest agent. Glad he found a prosperous way off the ship. Good for him.
Who is Brian Bunin?
He’s a nice guy but hasn’t had a lot going on over all these years. Not a big loss for ICM.
Brian Bunnin is brilliant in every way. I know that his transition will be seamless and I wish for him tremendous success at Streamline Entertainment.
What a huge loss for ICM! What a big gain for Streamline. Brian is one of the most honest hard working people in showbiz. Well another person has been saved from the titanic. Sad for his clients, happy for Brian!!!!!
Gonna miss working with him. Congratulations to you Brian.
Who is this guy and what’s Streamline Entertainment?
Wow. Great move for Brian and huge loss for ICM. There are certainly big things ahead for him.
Brian Bunnin is an excellent agent, has incredible taste and with all of his experience, I am sure that his producing abilities will be at the highest capacity!! Congratulations!!
Why is anybody wasting time talking about this guy? I’ve never heard of Brian Bunnin.
If you have never heard of Brian before then you are not in the business.
Wow. So this is what a fired ICM employee sounds like when he/she posts anonymously. Brian is one of the hardest working people I’ve met in the business. His roster of clients is diverse and he is respected by anyone who has worked with him. Would love to know where your info comes from “bug.”
i assure you they never wanted him to leave. brian is smart, loyal, and devoted to all of his clients and colleagues. i always was curious why he didn’t exit sooner. i remember when he signed jeremy piven, jeremy sisto (who left and came back) from a cubicle. he is super creative and i know he will be a star on the “other side” — he lost clients not because of his work but b/c of icm…he believes in the clients and was like a manager.
Brian is a writer. He had a middling agent career because his heart was not in it. So he moved. He will wallow in this job until the day he writes a heartfelt script with his writing partner.
Thanks a lot.
I am an ex ICM Agent. I worked with Brian and he is a Great Agent. Smart, devoted and always available to help out. I know he will do well in his new situation and for those of you that don’t know him you should try to get to know him. He is one of the hardest working guys out there. Good luck and best wishes to you.
Vincent Herbert is a REALLY well known and extremely respected music executive whose label is called Streamline Records (ie Lady GaGa).
Congrats Brian on your move. You always impress!
I’ve worked with Brian for many years. He’s always impressed me with his eye for talent, taste in material and originality. His word means something and he has integrity. It is a rare quality these days.
what will kris kristoferson do now that a member of his team has left?
Brian was a great agent and will be an even greater producer because he is a genuinely smart and creative person who actually loves movies, television, and music. There can be no doubt that he will flourish in an environment that embraces artistic originality and out-of-the-box business strategy.
Brian is one of the sweetest, mench-iest guys. He was collaborative and represented his clients, his colleagues and the agency well. I’m happy to see the nice comments for a change (and will ignore the few of you who are just grumpy people anyway). Congrats brian, you will do great!!
Brian is a great guy. He has extremely good business ethics , a real honest and straightforward style of being an agent , and was passionate about his work. A real old school agent , that was and is still very young. His best years are ahead of him and it is a real loss for ICM. If you don’t know who Brian is , then you are questionably not paying much attention to the business you are commenting on. We will all see and hear about Bunin for the next 20 years. This , I can guarantee anyone who is reading Nicky Fink.
Brian is a smart and inspiring guy with a vision for the future…
ive been out of the country and this article was brought to my attention and i felt i had to take a moment to share a thought or two. brian was my agent at icm during two different periods. he is a great person whose authenticity & work ethic is beyond belief. his passion and ability to deliver always impressed me a great deal. i must say, i miss him in my life professionally. i had the chance to spend time with brian a couple months back and he deserves this. i am happy for you bb.
