2015-2021. In the summer of 2016, Denton Executive Produced and starred in Hallmark's movie, FOR LOVE & HONOR, costarring alongside his real-life son, Sheppard Denton.

FACE OFF directed by John Woo, and PRIMARY COLORS directed by Oscar-winner, Mike Nichols. In 1997 Denton landed the role of the eerily sociopathic, 'Mr. Lyle' on NBC's hit drama,
THE PRETENDER. In 2001 Denton was cast by ABC to star opposite Kim Delaney in
