Career Willingham learned that the English dub of Dragon Ball Z was being recorded in Dallas, and asked Laura Bailey, who he knew through their talent agency, to "put in a good word for him". A director there asked him to audition for the part of Roy Mustang in Fullmetal Alchemist, and he received the role. While he described it as "the most intensive, spirit-crushing time ever in voiceover", it ultimately led to his rise to prominence in the industry.

After becoming hugely successful, the Critical Role cast left the Geek & Sundry network in early 2019 and set up their own production company called Critical Role Productions, for which Willingham is CEO. Willingham reprised his role as Grog.
