Disney Has Met With Macaulay Culkin About New Home Alone Movie: Report
Sources say Disney is courting Macaulay Culkin for a reboot as Home Alone remains one of the studio’s top-streamed holiday franchises.
- On Tuesday, July 28, veteran entertainment journalist Matthew Belloni reported that Macaulay Culkin was spotted at Walt Disney Studios in Burbank, California, to discuss a potential new Home Alone movie.
- Disney is aggressively courting Culkin for a reboot, viewing Home Alone as a top-streamed franchise that would be "gigantic" for the studio, Belloni reported.
- During an event last year, Culkin told an audience he was not "completely allergic" to reprising his role as Kevin McCallister, revealing he had an idea for a new sequel.
- While Belloni joked that Macaulay's brother Kieran Culkin is "the hot one" in Hollywood following an Oscar win, Disney is offering Macaulay a passion project alongside the reboot.
- Since Culkin's departure, the Home Alone franchise has struggled to match its original success, with 2021's Home Sweet Home Alone failing to resonate with audiences.
