Nelson has appeared as an actor in film, TV, and theater. He had a featured role as Delmar in the film O Brother, Where Art Thou?. As indicated by directors Joel and Ethan Coen, he was the just one in the cast or team who had read Homer's Odyssey, a story whereupon the movie is inexactly based. He was cast as the lead for his insight into Greek Mythology.

After the season finale of Watchmen was broadcast in December 2019, there were requests concerning whether Watchmen would return for season 2. HBO has not reestablished the series for another season yet that appears to be less about the performance of the show since it was a strong ratings and evaluations achievement. The questions are about whether there is sufficient material for a season 2. Tim plays Wade Tillman on the show.
