Fans Stunned by the Powerful Kieran Culkin Connection Between Home Alone and Succession. It’s difficult to believe that more than 30 years have passed since the original Home Alone movie. In this classic film, eight-year-old Kevin McCallister (played by Macaulay Culkin) wakes up to an empty house, thinking his wish for no family has come true. However, his excitement fades when he discovers that two burglars (Joe Pesci and Daniel Stern) plan to rob the McCallister residence. Kevin must protect the home alone as his family inadvertently goes on vacation without him.
While Macaulay became a child star, his younger brother Kieran initially stayed out of the limelight. It’s only recently that Kieran has gained recognition, notably for his role as Roman Roy in HBO’s Succession.
Kieran’s journey to celebrity status was different from his brother’s, and he empathized with Macaulay’s early fame struggles. Kieran expressed in an interview with Esquire, “Poor guy. He was little and had to accept that level of fame as a reality. Even as a kid, I remember thinking, ‘That sucks for him.'”
Macaulay has also shared his perspective on those times, acknowledging the challenges but noting that he has something to show for it. Despite the difficulties, Macaulay appreciated his acting career.
As for Kieran’s career, fans were surprised to learn that he played small parts in the first and second Home Alone films as Kevin’s cousin, Fuller. The revelation left fans mind-blown, with many expressing their astonishment on social media.

In another interesting connection, fans of Friends discovered a potential link to Home Alone. In the final season of Friends (2004), when the newly married Bings were looking at suburban homes, one house appeared similar to the McCallister house from the 1990s Christmas classic. Production company 22 Vision claimed that Friends producers used stock footage from Home Alone to create the neighborhood outside the Bings’ house.
Viewers have been buzzing about this discovery, jokingly suggesting that Friends might be a Home Alone prequel. Despite some disagreements in the comments, the real owners of the house in Winnetka, Illinois, confirmed in 2016 that it is the same home used in both films.
So there you have it – a series of surprising connections and revelations that left fans’ minds blown.
