- He gave his entire fee for The Philadelphia Story (1940) to the British war effort.
- Pictured on a 37¢ USA commemorative postage stamp in the Legends of Hollywood series, issued 15 October 2002.
- The late Christopher Reeve said that he based his portrayal of Clark Kent in the Superman films on Cary Grant in the early part of his career.
