He is best known for playing Tsui Wai-Keung in the Infernal Affairs trilogy, as well as the role of Itsuki Tachibana in Initial D. He remarried in 2005 to Kristal Tin.

Along with acting, To was also a radio personality for Commercial Radio 2(CR2). He hosted the show, On a Clear Day (在晴朗的一天出發), a 2-hour morning show which was co-hosted by Michelle Lo and Jan Lamb. However, after a fall-out with the key personnel of the radio company, Chapman lost the radio hosting job in 2006.

To is also an avid amateur photographer. In 2011, To was hired as the photographer for cantopop singer Prudence Liew's album, Love Addict. To stated that this is the first time he is paid for his photography work.
In March 2014, To express support for the Sunflower Student Movement in Taiwan, which was skeptical of a proposed agreement to create closer ties between Taiwan and mainland China. He was then involved in online arguments with some mainland netizens. Mainland netizens objected to To's comments and some called for a boycott of To's movies. The first two movies after the incident, Let Go for Love and Aberdeen, were affected by the boycott.
In December 2014, To and Adrian Teh co-founded Dream Moon, a Malaysia-based film production company.
