He made his acting debut at an off-Broadway theatre in 1995 in The Monogamist, won the Theatre World Award for his performance, and then originated David Sedaris' The Santaland Diaries in 1996.

He came to a broader audience through his portrayal of Sheriff Seth Bullock in HBO's western Deadwood (2004–2006), later reprising the role in Deadwood: The Movie (2019). He had starring roles in films such as Catch and Release (2006), Hitman (2007), A Perfect Getaway (2009), and The Crazies (2010), and he played the main antagonist, Thomas Gabriel, in Live Free or Die Hard (2007).

Maycomb is a four-part prestige limited mini-series remake of To Kill a Mockingbird that leverages a premium television format to deeply explore both the atmospheric gothic mystery of childhood and the devastating legal and social realities of the Jim Crow South. Framed through the poetic, reflective voiceover of an older Jean Louise "Scout" Finch, the adaptation chronicles three transformative years in a fractured Alabama town during the Great Depression. The narrative anchors itself on the brilliant, eccentric bond between Scout and her summer friend Dill—two self-described "apart people" whose obsession with their reclusive neighbor, Arthur "Boo" Radley, serves as a poignant exploration of isolation and hidden empathy. This childhood innocence violently collides with the adult world when Scout's father, Atticus Finch, is appointed to defend Tom Robinson, a Black man falsely accused of rape. Drawing stark thematic parallels to historical tragedies like the Scottsboro Boys and the real-life childhood of author Harper Lee, the series dedicates an entire bottle-episode to the claustrophobic courtroom drama where Atticus systematically dismantles the prosecution's case, only for an all-white jury to deliver a devastating guilty verdict that culminates in Tom's tragic death. The final act shifts into a gripping psychological thriller as a humiliated, vengeful Bob Ewell launches a terror campaign against the Finch family, culminating in a pitch-black nighttime ambush on Jem and Scout. Saved by a silent benefactor, Scout is brought face-to-face with a pale, gentle Boo Radley in her own home. By honoring Sheriff Tate's decision to protect Boo from the public eye, and standing on the Radley porch to view Maycomb through her savior's eyes, Scout finally internalizes her father's ultimate lesson on empathy, human dignity, and the profound cost of structural injustice.
