Father with Nora Eddington of Deirdre Flynn (born January 10, 1945) and Rory Flynn (born March 12, 1947).
In October 1997 he was ranked #70 in "Empire" (UK) magazine's "The Top 100 Movie Stars of All Time" list.
Father, with Lili Damita, of photojournalist Sean Flynn (1941-70).
It has been said that his 1959 autobiography, "My Wicked Wicked Ways," was originally to be called "In Like Me."
Was tried for statutory rape in 1942 but was acquitted, spawning the term "In Like Flynn".
When banned from drinking on a film set, he would inject oranges with vodka and eat them during his breaks.
Interred at Forest Lawn, Glendale, CA, in the Garden of Everlasting Peace.
In 1995 he was chosen by "Empire" magazine as one of the 100 Sexiest Stars in film history (#86).
The phrase "In like Flynn," stems from his 1942 trial for statutory rape.
His son Sean Flynn appeared in a few films but didn't particularly like being an actor. He switched careers and was a freelance photojournalist during the Vietnam War. He disappeared with another journalist as they followed the US Army invasion into Cambodia and both were thought to have been captured and executed by Khmer Rouge guerrillas. He is the subject of the 1981 The Clash song, "Sean Flynn."
He claimed to be the great-great-great-great-grandson of HMS Bounty mutineer Edward "Ned" Young. However, research suggests this was not actually true. Flynn played Fletcher Christian in In the Wake of the Bounty (1933). He was also the 23rd great-grandson of Robert De Vere. In addition, he is the 15th cousin twice removed of Olivia de Havilland, who played Maid Marian, his love interest, in The Adventures of Robin Hood (1938).
He was voted the 55th Greatest Movie Star of all time by "Entertainment Weekly".
Grandfather of Luke Flynn.
His father was head of the zoology department at the University of Tasmania.

It was during a Parkinson (1971) interview that his good friend David Niven revealed that during the filming of The Charge of the Light Brigade (1936), Flynn was busy on a horse during a break applying makeup with one hand whilst holding a mirror in the other. An extra seeing this assumed (like most of the people around) that he was gay, and decided to "pock" the horse up the behind with his lance - the horse bucked, throwing Flynn to the ground. He got to his feet and asked who had done that, the extra volunteered, thinking that this would only add to his embarrassment. However, Flynn dragged him from the horse and gave him a sound beating. They were the best of friends after that.
He met his second wife while she was working at a snack counter in a courthouse during one of his rape trials.
His father, Theodore Flynn, taught biology at Queens College, Belfast.
Warner Brothers' publicity department tried to claim that he was from Ireland, when he was in fact from Tasmania, the island state off the coast of Australia.
