In 1997, he was cast as Sanosuke Sagara in the film Rurouni Kenshin: Requiem for the Ishin Patriots, a role which he reprised in the 2001 film Rurouni Kenshin: Reflection and the Rurouni Kenshin: New Kyoto Arc two-film series in 2011 and 2012. In 1998, he played the role of Lei Wulong in Tekken: The Motion Picture.
In August 2011, Haddock was hired by Rooster Teeth as a visual effects artist and digital compositor working on season 9 of Red vs. Blue. He then worked on season 10 of Red vs. Blue and, in 2013, he took on a voice acting position as Roman Torchwick in Rooster Teeth's animated series, RWBY. He also took on the role of Locus in Red vs. Blue, a character that debuted in Season 11.
In 2014, Haddock co-starred in the two-hander play Venus in Fur, opposite Molly Karrasch and directed by his wife Lara Toner.
In 2014, Haddock worked as a producer on the second season of RWBY. In September 2014, he became head of the newly-formed Rooster Teeth Animation department. When production started on its third season in 2015, Haddock became a co-director and producer for RWBY. In 2018, he became writer and director for a mecha series on Rooster Teeth, Gen:Lock. In June 2019, following complaints from his former employees regarding negative working conditions, Haddock stepped down as the head of RT Animation to fulfill a strictly creative role.
