His many other television appearances include series such as Jake and the Fatman, Vega$, MacGyver, Walker, Texas Ranger, The A-Team and The Highwayman. He has appeared in Star Trek III: The Search for Spock, Action Jackson, Hard to Kill, Journey 2: The Mysterious Island, Aces: Iron Eagle III, Harley Davidson and the Marlboro Man, Christopher Columbus: The Discovery, and in The Scorpion King, as Mathayus's half-brother.

He was inducted to the Motorcycle Hall of Fame in 2003. Grindcore band Anal Cunt paid tribute to him in a track called "Branscombe Richmond" on their album I Like It When You Die. He voiced the character Gibraltar in Apex Legends.

He also has his own band, Branscombe Richmond and the Renegade Posse, which he formed in 1989. They tour the United States when Branscombe is not working on television or film, and they also play at corporate functions, most recently at the Thunder Valley Casino in 2010.
