In 1946, he portrayed Iago in a condensed short film version of "Othello". Post-war, Cabot landed roles in such British films as "Third Time Lucky" (1949), "The Spider and the Fly" (1949), as the villainous Fouracada in "Dick Barton Strikes Back" (1949); he was also in "Ivanhoe" (1952) and "The Love Lottery" (1954). He appeared in a couple of international productions, the Spanish-UK-USA Sinbad comedy "Babes in Bagdad" (1952) and the Italian version of "Romeo and Juliet" (1954) as Lord Capulet, before moving to the United States, where he worked for Disney on "Westward Ho, the Wagons!" (1956) and as the scheming landlord Jonathan Lyte in "Johnny Tremain" (1957). In George Pal's production of H.G. Wells' "The Time Machine" (1960) he was Dr. Hillyer who doubts the time traveller's story. Meanwhile, Cabot had begun to work as a voice actor. In the 1950s he was featured in a radio show called "Horizons West," a 13-part radio drama which followed the story of the Lewis and Clark Expedition, and was the voice of Noah in the first recording of Igor Stravinsky's biblical 'musical play' "The Flood" (1962). He also did voice parts for animated films such as Disney's "The Sword In The Stone" (1963) as Lord Ector and in "The Jungle Book" (1967) as Bagheera. About this time Cabot began taking on television work. He was the host of the syndicated "Jack the Ripper" series, and he portrayed the Count of Brisemont on "The Three Musketeers" and Andrew Crippen on "The Beachcomber". He also appeared in such series as "Alfred Hitchcock Presents", "The Adventures of Hiram Holliday" (1956–57), on Frank Lovejoy's detective series "Meet McGraw" (1958), with James Best in the western series "Bonanza" ("The Spanish Grant", 1960) and "Pony Express" ("The Story of Julesburg", 1960), "The Red Skelton Show" (various roles 1961-1971), and "The Twilight Zone" ("A Nice Place to Visit," 1960).
