Somebody Compares ‘Home Alone’ 1990 Vs 2018 Ad Side By Side, And People Notice Macaulay Culkin Looks Healthy
The internet can argue all day long about whether or not ‘Die Hard’ is a Christmas movie, but I think we can all agree that ‘Home Alone’ is definitely a holiday classic. Recently, much to the delight of all the 90’s babies out there, Google teamed up with everyone’s favorite prankster Kevin McCallister (Macaulay Culkin) to recreate some classic scenes from the film. These shot for shot remakes are perfect it’s the Christmas present we didn’t know we needed.

Macaulay Culkin was first introduced to us as Kevin McCallister in 1990 when he was a ten-year-old child actor. Almost 30 years later the 38-year-old star is back and looks better than ever.

Many people may not know, but the role of Kevin McCallister was written specifically for Culkin by John Hughes who got the idea for the film during the filming of ‘Uncle Buck’ – also starring the child star.

‘Home Alone’ was so successful that it held the Guinness World Record for over 25 years as number one at the box office, making $17,081,997 in 1202 theaters.

As with many childhood stars fame took a troubling toll on the famous actor. In 2004 he was arrested for marijuana possession and two controlled substances. Culkin was briefly arrested then suspended after pleading guilty.

His fight with the limelight led him to retire at 14 and get married at 18.

People in the comments loved that the actor agreed to the hilarious reprise
Xmas is not Xmas without Home Alone 1 and 2. I love the movies and it´s so nice to see MC looking so good and healthy. :)
Could someone please explain why "Yvonx Slater" looked at this article if he/she "doesn't care"?
Macaulay Culkin has been absolutely fine for a number of years but I do agree that he looks so much better than he did. Especially in that picture I'm sure everyone thinks of when they think about him.
Actually looks like a grown up Kevin and not a down and out -all kudos to him !!!
Found a video comparison of this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lz4df8wfWOU
He looks great! He was so emaciated for a while - now he looks much healthier.
I was happy when I saw this the other day seeing how healthy he looks. I am glad he looks like he's doing better! Good job man!
lovelovelove that he did this. My fave part was the back pain wince after jumping on the bed.
Oh my! #A_LEX_A_XEL_A! You had to say that!!! I went back and looked, and all I could see after that was the differences!
ahhh i am so emotional right now:/ i cant believe that cute boy 38 now and i am 27 and still loving to watch that movie:/ time is the crulest thing
Oh my, hooray for you! Thank god you were here to give him such unsolicited advice. I'm sure he'll immediately drop everything to sort this out. Wow, his life would've been in danger of being total garbage if *you* weren't here to save the day. They say Christmas is the time for giving and you've certainly shown that you have the capacity to be incredibly generous. You've changed his life. You're a modern day saint and you've given him the best Christmas present he’s ever received. Where would we be without you?? That was a completely pointless and unnecessarily aggressive comment. You’re a tool. Merry Xmas, you utter cretin.
