Nel 2011, Firth è stato nominato CBE per i suoi servizi al teatro e ha comparso nella lista delle 100 persone più influenti al mondo della rivista Time. Identificato a metà degli anni '80 con il "Brit Pack" di giovani attori britannici emergenti, ebbe ruoli da protagonista in A Month in the Country (1987), Tumbledown (1988) e Valmont (1989). La sua interpretazione del signor Darcy nell'adattamento televisivo del 1995 di Orgoglio e pregiudizio di Jane Austen attirò ampia attenzione. Questo ha portato a ruoli in film più importanti come The English Patient (1996), Shakespeare in Love (1998), The Importance of Being Earnest (2002) e Love Actually (2003). Ha interpretato Mark Darcy nella serie di film di Bridget Jones (2001–2025). Inoltre, recitò nella commedia musicale Mamma Mia! (2008) e il suo seguito del 2018. Firth ha vinto l'Oscar come miglior attore per la sua interpretazione del re Giorgio VI nel dramma storico The King's Speech (2010). In precedenza era stato nominato all'Oscar per il ruolo di un uomo gay in lutto nel dramma romantico A Single Man (2009), che gli è valso il BAFTA Award e la Volpi Cup come miglior attore. Successivamente ha interpretato l'agente segreto Harry Hart in Kingsman: The Secret Service (2014) e nel suo sequel del 2017. Ha inoltre recitato in film come Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy (2011), Mary Poppins Returns (2018), 1917 (2019), The Secret Garden, Supernova (entrambi 2020) e Operation Mincemeat (2021). Per i suoi ruoli in televisione, ha ricevuto nomination ai Primetime Emmy Award per le sue interpretazioni del Dr. Wilhelm Stuckart nel film della BBC Conspiracy (2001) e di Michael Peterson nella miniserie HBO The Staircase (2022). Nel 2012 ha fondato la casa di produzione Raindog Films, sotto la quale ha lavorato come produttore per Eye in the Sky (2015) e Loving (2016). I suoi film hanno incassato oltre 3 miliardi di dollari in 42 uscite in tutto il mondo. Firth ha fatto campagna per i diritti dei popoli indigeni ed è membro di Survival International. Ha inoltre condotto campagne su temi quali i richiedenti asilo, i diritti dei rifugiati e l'ambiente. Commissionò e co-autore di un articolo scientifico sulle differenze nella struttura cerebrale tra persone con orientamenti politici differenti.
