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 then branched out to film; in the early years of his career, he was often cast in supporting villainous roles, most notably in Scream 2 (1997), Go (1999), Gone in 60 Seconds and The Broken Hearts Club (2000), A Man Apart (2003), and The Girl Next Door (2004). 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). Olyphant was a recurring guest star in season two of the FX legal thriller Damages (2009). From 2010 to 2015, Olyphant starred as Deputy U.S. Marshal Raylan Givens in FX's modern-day Kentucky southern gothic Justified, a performance for which he was nominated for a Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Lead Actor in a Drama Series in 2011. Since the end of Justified, Olyphant has starred in films such as Mother's Day (2016), Snowden (2016), Once Upon a Time in Hollywood (2019), and Amsterdam (2022).

I want to make a modern-day, mature adaptation of the Scooby Doo show called Mystery Incorporated with Shaggy's dad being a sheriff and Scooby being as a retired police dog, which is how Shaggy and Scooby meet and form their friendship, Fred being an actual character, instead of being the guy who's always full of himself and he's investigating a mystery, trying to find the creature who murdered his parents, which leads to him meeting Velma and the two form a bond as Velma lost her father and they try to solve the mystery together. Lastly, Daphne would the "kluzt" and lean more into the popular/mean girls aspect as she's told to do "this and that" by her parents who are like: “You’re a Blake and Blake’s Do This”. As for the style and tone, the show will have the mystery aspect of X-Files and Twin Peaks, but it also meets Riverdale and mixes the suspense with tons of humor, Stranger Things mixed with Evil Dead and lasting for 3 seasons with an equal amount of filler episodes and story driven episodes. It won't be dark and edgy, but it will be a dark comedy and a gritty Scooby Doo show without hate and vulgar. It has a darker tone and style while still keeping some of the goofiness and wacky comedy of other Scooby-Doo shows and also having cartoonish dialogue and music, which is something the CW would make. The last idea I have is make Scooby be played by a real life dog, instead of using CGI and he won't talk in this show.
