He has costarred in many movies and received critical praise for performances in The Limey and SubUrbia. Many of the characters Katt plays are overtly prickly, followed by such roles as an irascible motorhead in Dazed and Confused, an ill-fated child rapist in A Time to Kill and an embittered business rival in Boiler Room. He was also originally cast to star in the ABC Spring 2006 replacement series The Evidence, but was replaced by Rob Estes.
