In November 2022, Collins launched Case Study Films alongside Charlie McDowell and Alex Orlovsky. The production company will look to tell compelling and outside-of-the-box stories through a commercial eye in both film and television.  Case Study will develop material internally and with outside filmmakers and talent, discovering, supporting and giving voice to the next generation of storytellers from all walks of life, as it generates projects for its principals. Recent projected helmed by Case Study include Memory, starring Jessica Chastain and Peter Sarsgaard which received accolades at the Venice Film Festival as well as an Indie Spirit nomination for Chastain and His Three Daughters, starring Carrie Coon, Natasha Lyonne and Elizabeth Olsen.
