Disney Courts Macaulay Culkin for Another 'Home Alone' Project

Macaulay Culkin may be revisiting his iconic role as Kevin McCallister in the beloved holiday movie 'Home Alone'. According to industry reporter Matthew Belloni, Disney has met with Culkin about a new project involving the franchise. The idea would see Kevin on the other side of the traps, as a widowed or divorced father whose demanding work life leaves his son feeling ignored.

Culkin had already expressed interest in reprising his role, stating that he 'wouldn't be completely allergic' to another installment during a 2025 event celebrating the original movie's 35th anniversary. However, any follow-up would need to meet Culkin's requirements, as he emphasized the importance of getting the story 'just right'.

The reported Disney meeting signals interest rather than certainty, and it remains to be seen if a new chapter will materialize. Still, Culkin's involvement would give the project a connection that many fans have been eagerly awaiting.
