Giunge all'attenzione del pubblico nella presentazione di The Cellar Tapes della Cambridge Footlights Revue nel 1981, la quale include anche Hugh Laurie, Emma Thompson e Tony Slattery. Con Hugh Laurie, come nella commedia a doppio atto Fry and Laurie, è coautore e attore in A Bit of Fry & Laurie, e ricopre il ruolo di Jeeves (con Laurie che interpreta Wooster) in Jeeves and Wooster. Fry è stato protagonista, tra gli altri, nei film Gli amici di Peter (1992) e Wilde (1997), ha interpretato i ruoli di Melchett nella serie TV della BBC Blackadder, e di Peter Kingdom nella serie TV Kingdom della ITV, in cui ha un ricorrente ruolo da guest star come Dott. Gordon Wyatt nella serie crime della Fox, Bones, ed è apparso come Gordon Deitrich, presentatore TV nel thriller distopico V per Vendetta (2005). Ha anche scritto e presentato numerose serie di documentari come Stephen Fry in America del 2008, in cui viaggia per gli Stati Uniti d'America. Dal 2003 al 2016 è stato il conduttore del quiz show QI. Fry collabora con giornali e riviste scrivendo articoli; ha inoltre scritto quattro romanzi e due volumi autobiografici: Moab Is My Washpot e Stephen Fry Chronicles. Inoltre è spesso ospite su BBC Radio 4, recita nella serie comica Absolute Power, è una guest star ricorrente in giochi come Just a Minute, e ha ricoperto il ruolo di conduttore in I'm Sorry I Haven't a Clue, dove faceva parte di un trio di presentatori succeduti a Humphrey Lyttelton.
