He also appeared in Saving Private Ryan as the pilot of the crashed glider.

Orser appeared in various parts in the Star Trek franchise, among them playing a Changeling posing as the Romulan Colonel Lovok in the Star Trek: Deep Space Nine two-parter episode " Improbable Cause" / "The Die is Cast", and a homicidal hologram in the Star Trek Voyager episode "Revulsion".
