Though his current role in NBC's Crisis is less leading man, more potential criminal, we're excited that it brings him back to Chicago. While it might be harder to find this onscreen character particularly lovable, we find it endearing that while filming, Mulroney uses public transportation. “There’s a distinct difference in train commuters — they really don’t give a s*** about you.” While we would normally wholeheartedly agree, the chance of seeing Mulroney is reason to take the El.
Though this role is his biggest departure to date — wasn’t it just last year he was Zooey Deschanel's hunky older boyfriend in New Girl? — the show has an addictive quality. Fortunately, if you’ve yet to jump on the Crisis train bus, or are just looking for something to devour after the True Detective finale, you're only behind one episode. In an interview with Splash magazine, Mulroney reminisces on My Best Friend's Wedding, Julia Roberts, and his college days. Check it out to read more about Chicago's babe-in-residence. Because, some feelings never die. (Splash)
