Home Alone is such a classic Christmas film, and so for everyone who loves to watch Kevin's shenanigan over and over again during the festive period, it's like Kevin's family are our family (but without the giant house and the festive family vacations). Since it's been 33 years since the movie was released in 1990, it goes without saying that Kevin and his brothers, sisters and cousins aren't kids anymore! So what happened to the cast members of Home Alone after they got home in time for Christmas?! Find out here... 

Macaulay Culkin - Kevin McCallister

Since briefly retiring from acting at the age of 14, Macaulay was a regular voiceover artist in Robot Chicken, Changeland and most recently made an appearance as himself on sitcom The Jim Gaffigan Show. He is now a dad of two, and shares Dakota, two, and an infant son with his wife, The Suite Life of Zack and Cody star Brenda Song.

He recently spoke about Brenda after receiving a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, saying: "I’d like to thank Brenda. You’re absolutely everything. You’re my champion. You’re the only person happier for me today than I am."

Devin Ratray - Buzz McCallister

Kevin's bully brother has a thriving acting career, and most recently appeared in The Lennon Report and Masterminds, as well as Better Call Saul and Russian Doll. 

During an interview with Complex, Devin said about the impact Home Alone had on his career: "Being in Home Alone always helps. It certainly does, you know, [because] people can instantly [have] name recognition and face recognition, and they recognise the movie and now instantly remember my part, which at least gives validity to future projects or auditions I go for. Of course, you know, it was a quarter of a century ago, so I’m a totally different person."

Hillary Wolf - Megan McCallister

You got it - Kevin's mean older sister Megan went on to become an Olympian in judo for Team US for the 1996 and 2000 Olympics!

Kieran Culkin - Fuller

Macauley's real-life little brother and fellow actor played Kevin's cousin Fuller in the film, sporting some pretty good (and VERY 90s specs). Since then, the now 41-year-old has had a thriving career, with roles in Scott Pilgrim vs the World and TV show Fargo. He is currently a leading cast member in the smash hit show Succession, where he plays Logan's youngest son, Roman Roy - and was just nominated for a Golden Globe for the hit show's final season. Good luck Kieran!
