The first 'Home Alone' movie was released in 1990. The child star was 10 at the time and now, almost 30 years later, he's back in the role of Kevin McCallister again.
John Hughes wrote the role of Kevin specifically for Macaulay Culkin and got the idea while filming another movie with the child star - 'Uncle Buck'.
'Home Alone' held the Guinness World Record as number one box office movie for over 25 years, making $17,081,997 in 1202 theaters.
Sadly, Culkin's fame faded pretty soon after the movies and led him to make some questionable life decisions. He was arrested for possession of marijuana and two other controlled substances back in 2004.
The actor retired when he was only fourteen.
Many of those who saw the ad like the nostalgic remake and were happy to see Culkin healthy and well.
The modern Kevin McCallister is definitely wiser and thanks to Google's modern technology, the Wet Bandits swiftly leave. Check out the ad below!
