For years, fans of the beloved holiday classic Home Alone have been buzzing with rumours about a potential reboot. Now, Macaulay Culkin, the iconic child star who played Kevin McCallister, has finally addressed the speculation.
In a recent interview, Culkin revealed his thoughts on the possibility of returning to the franchise that made him a household name. "It's flattering that people still care so much," he said, "but I think Kevin's story has been told."
The actor, now 43, acknowledged the enduring love for the 1990 film but hinted that he’s moved on to other projects. "I’ve got my own life now, and it’s not about setting up booby traps for burglars," he joked.
Despite Culkin’s reluctance, fans continue to speculate about a reboot, especially after Disney acquired 21st Century Fox, which owns the rights to Home Alone. The studio has already released a standalone sequel, Home Sweet Home Alone, in 2021, but without Culkin’s involvement.
Could there still be a chance for Kevin McCallister to return? Only time will tell, but for now, Culkin seems content to let the past stay in the past.
