Shortly after graduating from high school, at the age of 18, he starred in a Minneapolis production of Equus, to highly positive reviews. His other early stage credits include Sing Me Through an Open Window and Shakespeare's Julius Caesar.

Recently, he has guest starred as Davros, a European terrorist in 24.[3]

Hutchison entered the film business at the end of the 1980s, portraying Sproles in the 1988 drama film Fresh Horses and Obie Jameson in the film adaptation of The Chocolate War. In the 1990s he appeared in films such as The Lawnmower Man (1992), as racist James Louis 'Pete' Willard in A Time to Kill (1996), Con Air (1997), and Batman & Robin (1997). In 1999, Hutchison was cast as troublemaking prison guard Percy Wetmore in the film adaptation of Stephen King's The Green Mile, for which he received critical acclaim.[4] He continued his career by having supporting roles in the 2000 films Shaft and Bait, I Am Sam (2001), and 2002 films The Salton Sea and No Good Deed. Hutchison's career decreased in the 2000s, when he instead began receiving offers for short films and direct-to-video films. However, he was cast as the brother of Billy Russoti, James "Looney Bin Jim" Russoti in Punisher: War Zone, based on the antihero The Punisher. He starred alongside Thomas Jane and Ving Rhames in Give 'em Hell, Malone, released in 2009.
