Estévez was born in New York, New York, the eldest child of actor Martin Sheen and artist Janet (née Templeton). His siblings are Ramón Luis Estévez, Charlie Sheen, and Renée Estévez. Unlike his brother, Emilio did not adopt his father's stage name as he wanted to get roles without relying on his father's success.
Estévez was briefly married to singer-choreographer Paula Abdul. He has two children with an ex-girlfriend, model Carey Salley. They have a son, Taylor Levi Estévez (born in June 1984) and a daughter, Paloma Rae Estévez (born in February 1986).
Estévez is perhaps most famous as part of the 1980s Brat Pack group of actors, having starred in The Breakfast Club, Young Guns, and St. Elmo's Fire (1985). He also appeared in the cult film Repo Man (1984), as the punk-rocker turned car-repossessor Otto. Estévez is probably most recognizable among younger audiences for his role in The Mighty Ducks movie series. Most recently, he has directed episodes of the TV series, Cold Case, Close to Home, The Guardian and CSI: NY. Films he has directed include, Wisdom, Men at Work, The War at Home and Bobby. Estevez has also stated that he will direct and star in an independent film called "The Bang Bang Club". He also starred in the Outsiders. Estevez has stated that he currently has six screenplays that he has written that remain unproduced. Estevez stated during an interview after one of the first screenings of Bobby that his next film will likely be Johnny Longshot.
