Following the completion of Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Seth Green channeled his creative side, while churning out numerous acting roles, including voicing characters in animated series and those in video games as well.
Green launched his career in the late 1980s with roles in 1987's Radio Days and Can't Buy Me Love. However, it was in 1990, as Richie Tozier in IT, when his reputation began to garner speed. In 1993, he landed one of his first starring roles in Airborne, but he propelled himself to breakout status with his role as Kenny Fisher, a teen with an identity crisis and overactive libido in Can't Hardly Wait (1998). In fact, the 90s were good to Green, having landed roles as Dr. Evil's twisted and attention-hungry son, Scott Evil, in the Austin Powers (1997-02) franchise and as the trusted sidekick, Mick, in the cult-favorite, 1999's Idle Hands.
His run on the Joss Whedon-created show spanned over 40 episodes from 1997-00. He played Daniel 'Oz' Osbourne, who was a guitarist in a band called Dingoes Ate My Baby and was also a werewolf. He was also in relationship with Willow Rosenberg (Alyson Hannigan) in the series, one of Buffy's best friends.
What Seth Green Did After Buffy The Vampire Slayer
