[2] He has appeared in the horror films Resident Evil: Apocalypse[1] and Freddy vs. Jason.

Ward also has had leading roles in BloodRayne 2: Deliverance[1] and Postal,[2] and can be seen in Alone in the Dark II[2] and The Devil's Tomb.

[10] In August 2011, Ward sued Warner Bros. and Enesco[citation needed] over merchandising for A Christmas Story after Warner Bros. authorized a figurine set including the Scut Farkus character from the film without Ward's permission.

[11] Warner Bros. argued that the figurine showed a "generic face" that has been used on them since 2006 and that statute of limitations had run out, among other claims.

[12] In December 2012, Ward sued the National Entertainment Collectibles Association, and briefly Warner Bros. again, over his image after attending the annual Christmas Story charity fundraiser convention in Cleveland in November 2010 where a fan handed him a Christmas Story board game, playing cards, and calendar showing his face.
