Embry (originally credited as Ethan Randall) started acting at the age of 12. After making his debut in Defending Your Life (1991), he starred in several films, including Dutch (1991), All I Want for Christmas (1991), A Far Off Place (1993), Empire Records (1995),[2] That Thing You Do! (1996), Vegas Vacation (1997), and the teen comedy Can't Hardly Wait (1998).[3]

In 2002, Embry appeared as Bobby Ray Bailey opposite Reese Witherspoon in Sweet Home Alabama. The two actors had previously worked together a decade prior in the 1993 live action Disney film A Far Off Place.

Embry had a major role in Showtime's Brotherhood, which premiered in 2006 and in 2013 he had a recurring role as Greg Mendell on the television series Once Upon a Time.[4] In 2015, Embry had a guest role as Carter on The Walking Dead.[5] That same year, Embry began a recurring role as Coyote Bergstein on Grace and Frankie on Netflix.

Embry married actress Sunny Mabrey on July 17, 2005.[8] In 2012, Mabrey filed for divorce, citing irreconcilable differences.[9] In 2013, Embry and Mabrey began dating again, and remarried in June 2015.[10] Embry and Mabrey have homes in Los Angeles and Atlanta.
