His acting career began in theater. He was recognized for his role in Old Wicked Songs, which he won an award for.

In 2006, Stuhlbarg appeared in the plays Measure for Pleasure and The Voysey Inheritance. He played a recurring role on Aaron Sorkin’s television series Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip from 2006 to 2007, which aired for one season. His first film appearance of 2008 was the independent drama Afterschool, in which he played a “sanctimonious” high school principal and he had a one-line scene in Ridley Scott’s Body of Lies as a lawyer. Also in 2008, Stuhlbarg portrayed Prince Hamlet in Oskar Eustis’ production of William Shakespeare’s Hamlet at the Delacorte Theater. In August of that year, Stuhlbarg was cast as the lead character in the Coen brothers film A Serious Man. The dark comedy, in which he portrayed troubled Jewish university professor Larry Gopnik, was released in October 2009. In his review of the film, Chicago Sun-Times critic Roger Ebert felt that “Much of the success of A Serious Man comes from the way Michael Stuhlbarg plays the role. He doesn’t play Gopnik as a sad-sack or a loser, a whiner or a depressive, but as a hopeful man who can’t believe what’s happening to him. He was nominated for Golden Globe Award for Best Actor – Motion Picture Musical or Comedy for his performance in the film. Cold Souls, his other release of 2009, featured Stuhlbarg in a smaller role as a hedge fund consultant, and he also guest starred in the episode “There’s No Place Like Mode” of the comedy series Ugly Betty.
