Perlman made his feature film debut, appropriately, as a caveman in Jean-Jacques Annaud's film ''Film/QuestForFire''. Many of his early roles have him speaking languages other than English. His breakthrough role came when he played Vincent in the TV series ''Series/BeautyAndTheBeast1987'', opposite Creator/LindaHamilton from 1987 to 1990. This earned him a Golden Globe for Best Performance by an Actor in a Television Series in 1989 and a large fanbase. Perlman also has a successful career as a voice actor in addition to his onscreen acting, having portrayed characters in numerous video games and animated series, usually playing smooth-voiced, sinister villains or people in positions of authority, and usually very large, imposing men, due to his [[BaritoneOfStrength deep, thundering voice]]. He also acts as the narrator in every ''Franchise/{{Fallout}}'' game (except [[VideoGame/{{Fallout4}} one]]), voicing the iconic intro "[[WarIsHell War. War never changes.]]"

Perlman, due to a fallow period where he didn't work for several years, has made a career doing pretty much every role that is offered to him, regardless of the work's level of quality.
