In the 1970s, Dalton began his career with various stage appearances, including his portrayal of Romeo in "Romeo and Juliet" at the Royal Shakespeare Theatre and the role of Prince Henry in "Henry IV" at Round House Theatre in Maryland. 

In the late 1990s, he took on lead roles in various cable films, including the "Irish Republican Army" drama, "The Informant," and the action thriller "Made Men." His portrayal of Julius Caesar in the TV film "Cleopatra" (1999) was loved by the audience.

On TV, he appeared in "Sat'day While Sunday" and the BBC miniseries adaptation of "Jane Eyre." The 2000s saw him in NBC's "Hercules" and the British ITV program "Agatha Christie's Marple." In recent years, his roles in "Doctor Who," "Chuck," and "Doom Patrol" raked in the dough.

From 1987 to 1994, the actor appeared in two James Bond hits, "The Living Daylights" and "Licence to Kill." The financial success of these films, both critically and commercially, cemented his place in the James Bond legacy. Despite a relatively brief stint as 007, his impact on the franchise was undeniable.

Later, in the 2000s and 2010s, he worked on projects like "Hot Fuzz," "The Tourist," and even lent his voice to the character of Mr. Pricklepants in "Toy Story 3" and "Toy Story 4."
