KEVIN!
Though Macaulay Culkin played the lovable misfit Kevin in the classic Christmas movie “Home Alone,” the actor’s 3-year-old son believes he is the iconic character that his dad portrayed.
Culkin, 44, and his fiancée Brenda Song, 36, share two sons, Dakota, 3, and a 2-year-old whose name the couple has not revealed. The “Home Alone” star recently told E! that his boys are such big fans of the movie, which propelled him to fame, that Dakota has mixed up some of his memories with events in the film.
“He thinks he’s Kevin,” Culkin told the outlet.
“I’m like, ‘Do you remember going down the stairs on the sled?’ He’s like, ‘Mmhmm, yep. Sure do.’ I’m like, ‘Do you remember when he had yellow hair?’ And he’s like, ‘Uh-huh, yep.’”
Dakota even believes he battled the movie’s bad guys, Marv and Harry, who attempted to break into the McCallister family home.
Dakota told his dad that he “fought the burglars,” prompting Culkin to school his toddler.
“‘You’re a lying liar who lies. That was me!’” the actor recalled joking to his son.
And while his kids are big fans of the film, Culkin has to help them follow the plot.
“They can’t really follow the storyline so I kind of told them the story as it goes,” he shared.
The “American Horror Story” star added that it’s understandable his kids don’t realize it’s their dad in the movie.
“I’m a lot taller now. I have a lot more body hair,” he quipped. “But yeah, that was actually me.”
Culkin’s nephew and niece, on the other hand, have not seen “Home Alone.” Macaulay’s brother, Kieran, 42, who also stars in the flick, believes the movie might be too “scary” for his daughter Kinsey, 5, and son Wilder, 3.
“There’s still some scary parts,” the “Succession” actor said recently. “For the 3-year-old, there’s the tarantula [and] there’s the guy at the end who said, ‘I’m gonna bite off all your fingers.’ That’s scary for a 3-year-old.”
However, Kieran also shared that this might be the Christmas season when he finally shows the holiday flick to the kids.
“We think they might be ready for ‘Home Alone’ this year,” he revealed. “If not, next year.”
Kieran’s brother is “embracing” the beloved seasonal movie as of late despite previously having trouble liking the film.
“I’m kind of embracing it and, at the same time, taking the piss out of it, too,” he told E! this week. “It’s very rare when you have something that kind of encompasses an important day, and I’m a part of that. It’s more fun to embrace it than to fight it.”
