The performer behind Robin Scherbatsky and Maria Hill.
A career across genres
Canadian actor Cobie Smulders became widely known as Robin Scherbatsky in the ensemble comedy How I Met Your Mother. The series follows a group of friends in New York, with Robin bringing a Canadian perspective to the group.
In The Avengers (2012), Smulders joined the Marvel screen universe as S.H.I.E.L.D. agent Maria Hill. She returned to the role in later films, including Captain America: The Winter Soldier and Avengers: Age of Ultron.
Her work has also taken her to Broadway. In 2017 she made her Broadway debut as Joanna Lyppiatt in a revival of Noël Coward’s Present Laughter.
On television, she played investigator Dex Parios in Stumptown, a crime drama based on a graphic novel series. The film list below shows only titles currently available in the FLM.RED database.
