Jason Bateman plays the villain in Netflix’s Carry-On, and though it might be a surprising role for some, it won’t be for those familiar with the nine-year-old horror movie he starred in. Jason Bateman is best known for his comedic roles, but throughout his career, he has covered different genres. Bateman’s acting career began in TV in the early 1980s when he played James Cooper Ingalls in Little House on the Prairie, and in 1987, he made his proper film debut when he played Todd Howard in the fantasy comedy Teen Wolf Too.
