Succession fans were shocked after realizing star Kieran Culkin featured in Home Alone alongside his older brother Macaulay.
One of those films that most entertainingly brought our worst childhood nightmares to life was Home Alone.
It showed a young Kevin McCallister (Macaulay Culkin) defending himself and his house against two intruders, Harry and Marv, without the help of his family.
But Kevin mostly relied on well-planned traps and mischievous antics rather than brute force. The movie, as fans can recall, was an instant hit and even went on to spawn a media franchise that somehow endures to this day.
Fascinatingly, a fake fan trailer for Home Alone 3 has recently started making the rounds on social media.
The trailer stitches together footage from various projects the cast of Home Alone has been involved with in order to hypothesize what a long-awaited sequel might look like. Suffice to say, it’s incredibly entertaining.
Although Home Alone has largely become a thing of the past, there is no denying that the movie is highly regarded in the entertainment industry and occupies a special place in the hearts of moviegoers.
Kieran Culkin, the brother of Macaulay Culkin, played the role of Fuller McCallister in Home Alone. The performer has not stopped working on this project.
Culkin has dived headfirst into the world of voice acting, portraying characters in The Boys Presents: Diabolical, Solar Opposites, Agent Elvis, and more.
The actor has also performed in the well-known television series Succession, where he played Roman Roy. Additionally, Culkin was recognized for his immaculate work in films like No Sudden Move (as Charley), Infinity Baby (as Ben), and Wiener-Dog (as Brandon).
In addition, Kieran Culkin was part of the cast of the wildly successful film Scott Pilgrim vs. the World, in which he portrayed Wallace Wells.
In 2023, Culkin will return to the character of Wallace Wells in the animated series Scott Pilgrim Takes Off, which received a ton of praise upon its highly anticipated premiere.
Culkin will now feature in Jesse Eisenberg’s drama film A Real Pain, which was written and directed in 2024.
Kieran said in an interview about how he felt for his brother.
“Poor f***ing guy,” he said.
“When he was little, he had to learn to accept that level of fame as a reality.”
When I was younger, “I remember thinking, even at that age, that is bad for him.” Kieran continued.
Speaking candidly about those days, Macaulay said that he relished his acting career because he ‘knew he was good at it’.
He said: “Look, I mean, it sucks.
“But, it could have been worse, you know?
“I wasn’t working in a coal mine. I wasn’t a child soldier.
“My father was not sexually abusing me. Certain f***ed-up things happened, but f***ed-up things happen to kids all the time, and they don’t come out the other end.
“Dude, I have something to show for it.”
Fans of the popular HBO series were taken aback to discover that Kieran, the younger brother, had a bit of a role as Kevin’s cousin Fuller in the first and second Home Alone movies. Kieran has been making enormous progress in the entertainment industry.
“Mind blown when I realized Kieran Culkin is in Home Alone,” one fan tweeted, as another added: “Never realized Fuller in Home Alone was Kieran Culkin.”
“Remain calm and patient. Hold on tight. Did anyone else realize that Kieran Culkin, Macaulay Culkin’s real brother, played Fuller in the movie Home Alone?” A third fan commented.
As a flashback clip came on the screen, Kieran added: I was 9 years old, and I got to be in three sketches — two of which are non-problematic.” “And I got to be on stage for the good nights at the end of the show.”
