- He got the scar on his lip from falling on a piece of glass when he was three.
- He and his oldest brother, Sean Mulroney, are owners of "The Double Door", one of Chicago's more popular music clubs.
- Plays double bass and cello on the debut EP of Rain Phoenix and Summer Phoenix's band, 'Papercranes'.
- All of his siblings have traditional Irish names (Conor, Kieran, Moira and Sean). Seven of his eight great-grandparents were of Irish descent, and one of his paternal great-grandmothers, Minnie Henrietta Musfeldt, was of German descent.
- (On Longtime Companion (1989)) I remember every second of it, from the first audition straight through to the wrap. I knew it was going to be a groundbreaking film by the time I'd read the first ten pages of Craig Lucas's script, because I'd never read anything like it before.
- (1997 - On his favorite films that he has done) I've always held Longtime Companion (1989) and Where the Day Takes You (1992) in a little higher regard than some of the more simply entertaining films I've done - they were films that had something to reveal to the world. Also, Living in Oblivion (1995) was a strange little achievement by a handful of people I really love.
