There are some things that never change. The sun sets in the West. Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups are still delicious. And Macaulay Culkin shall forevermore be Kevin McCallister from the spectacular Home Alone movies.
Fans of the Home Alone films are madly hyped up after the actor tweeted that he would be ‘100%’ behind the idea of starring in a reboot of the series after supporters of the idea petitioned him online. Disney had recently announced that the movies would be remade, and Culkin had made headlines that time by posting a hilarious pic of himself.

The person who petitioned Culkin with the idea was Lawrence Ward who was over the moon when the actor replied to him. What fans are eager to see the most is Culkin playing 8-year-old Kevin while being 39 years old himself. And the cherry on top would be that nobody in the movies would acknowledge that he’s a grown-up playing the role of a kid. I think this would be glorious and an instant success.
The internet went wild with crazy ideas for the Home Alone reboot

Christmas time is closely associated with watching Home Alone with your loved ones around you and a fabulous dinner in front of you. It’s an annual ritual that most of us participate in. Well, that and watching Every. Single. Harry. Potter. Film. For. The. 100th. Time.
Now, you might be thinking that it’s a bit too early to be talking about Christmas, but I assure you, your local malls are probably already putting up the decorations and cranking up the volume of ‘Jingle Bells’ all the way to 11 on the music system.
Some could barely contain their enthusiasm

We can expect a Home Alone reboot sometime in the next two years. While some of us might be a tiny bit skeptical about Culkin playing a kid, this wouldn’t be the first time that an adult plays a far younger character’s role.
Check out Culkin’s cool video here
Fatherly writes that Stockard Channing was 33 years old when he played a 17-year-old in Grease. What’s more, back in 2009, a 55-year-old actress played the 11-year-old protagonist in a stage version of Neil Gaiman’s book ‘Coraline.’
