But his real interest was focused to the acting and he went to New York where he played smaller parts on stage with modest success.
But his breakthrugh came when he was offered a role by Vitagraph in 1916. Huntley Gordon seized the opportunity and started an impressive career which lasted three decades.

He met the classical beauty ideal and with his perfect behaviour Hollywood soon became aware of this young actor. In no time he played together with many stars in front of the camera. During his very busy career in the silent movie era he impersonated roles in the USA as well as in England.

When the talkies rang in a new era into the film business Gordon Huntley was still a demanded actor for the screen. He was convincing with his roles in the movies "Night World" (32), "The Phantom Express" (32), "The Red-Haired Alibi" (32), "Secrets" (33), "Corruption" (33), "It Happened in New York" (35), "Front Page Woman" (35), "Murder by Television" (35), "Daniel Boone" (36), "Bad Guy" (37), "Stage Door" (37) and "Gangster's Boy" (38).
