Macaulay Culkin Says His Kids Don’t Know He Was Kevin in Home Alone

In a Jimmy Kimmel interview, he said he is keeping the illusion intact to preserve the film’s magic for his young sons.

Overview

  • He said his three- and four-year-old sons have watched the holiday classic without realizing he played Kevin McCallister.
  • He described two close calls when the secret nearly surfaced, once over an old family photo and once when a cousin almost outed him.
  • He recounted that Joe Pesci accidentally bit his finger during a rehearsal on the first film and that he still has a small scar.
  • He explained he performed no dangerous stunts at age nine, crediting an adult stuntman named Larry for the riskier sequences.
  • He noted current roles in Fallout season 2 and voice work in Zootopia 2, adding that he could imagine a third Home Alone film.
