- Often directed John Wayne, James Stewart, and Harry Carey Jr.
- Son of actor Victor McLaglen.
- Holds the distinction of directing the most episodes of Le justicier (1955) (96).
- He was born in London but grew up around Hollywood, where his father often took him on movie sets. He learned the art of directing from greats such as John Ford, who eventually gave him a job as assistant director on L'homme tranquille (1952).
- In interviews with Christopher Frayling McLaglen rejected criticisms that he was no more than a journeyman director. He claimed that he had kept the traditional Western alive, that he had revived the late careers of James Stewart and John Wayne and that he had reversed the previous stereotype of Native Americans. He liked Frayling's likening him to a figurative painter when everybody else had gone abstract.
- One of the few directors to have directed both Clint Eastwood and John Wayne. Some of the others are Don Siegel and John Sturges.
