He made his acting debut in the 1994 film ''Prince of Jutland'', which also happened to be the acting debut of a certain Creator/AndySerkis, and has done infrequent stints on TV spots and danish shows. However, Bateson is best known for portraying Agent 47, the main protagonist of Creator/IOInteractive's ''VideoGame/{{Hitman}}'' video game series; a bald [[ProfessionalKiller contract killer]] with a [[ScannableMan barcode on his head]]. His [[GutturalGrowler whiskey-voiced narration]] (not unlike Creator/DavidHayter in ''VideoGame/MetalGear'', Creator/MichaelIronside in ''VideoGame/SplinterCell'', or Creator/StephenRussell in ''VideoGame/{{Thief}}'') is utilised to great effect in the Hitman games, adding a few nice moments of melancholy and, at times, [[DeadpanSnarker dry humor]] to the character. Bateson has gone on record saying he would be happy to continue voicing the character even after he otherwise retires from acting.
