He also performed for two seasons at Vancouver’s Bard on the Beach playing Edmund in King Lear and Claudius in Hamlet. He also played Scrooge in Carousel Theatre's 1999 A Christmas Carol and has toured Canada, the United States, Europe and Africa with the Great Mozart Hunt.
Halder has appeared as a guest star in Highlander: The Series, Millennium, and Hope Island as well as playing roles in the X-Files, The Outer Limits, Dead Man's Gun and Poltergeist. He also has the role of recurring Stargate SG-1 character Cronus. He is currently involved in voice-work for cartoons, like in Eon Kid where he is a voice actor for Gaff. He usually plays the role of an eccentric doctor/professor, a kindly older man/mentor, or a hard and malicious man.
