Carey's robust frame and craggy features were particularly suitable for westerns and outdoor adventures. Carey's assured, gritty baritone voice, which suited his rough-hewn screen persona, made him become a protagonist in sound films.

Carey, who was still in his fifties, was too old for most leading roles, and the only starring roles he was offered were in low-budget westerns and serials. He landed in a steady, memorable character actor for his role as the President of the Senate in the 1939 film Mr. Smith Goes to Washington.
