Culkin, who famously starred as burglar-outsmarting prankster Kevin McAllister in the ’90s Christmas classic, took to Twitter to share a hilarious photo of what his real-life version of _Home Alone_ looks like these days. The shot shows Culkin lounging on the couch in underwear, a too-short undershirt and a bandana with a laptop on his lap, a plate of food in his hand, and takeout cartons, a pack of cigarettes and stacks of papers strewn around him. “This is what an updated _Home Alone_ would actually look like,” he captioned the picture, later adding, “Hey [@Disney](https://twitter.com/Disney "undefined"), call me!” > [](https://twitter.com/IncredibleCulk/status/1159223225731047424) If nothing else, at least there’s a snowman pillow sitting on the couch to keep with the holiday theme of the original movie. ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/5647938/macaulay-culkin-home-alone-photo/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/5647938/macaulay-culkin-home-alone-photo/"},"headline":"At Least Macaulay Culkin's Take on the Home Alone Reboot Has a Festive Touch","datePublished":"2019-08-08T20:50:03.000Z","dateModified":"2026-04-13T07:59:51.472Z","description":"Merry Christmas, you filthy animal","url":"https://time.com/5647938/macaulay-culkin-home-alone-photo/","keywords":["celebrities","Newsfeed","movies","onetime"],"thumbnailUrl":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/bltc13d147814f8b3ef/698a012622fb853f1ae29a9b/macaulay-culkin-home-alone-photo.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Megan McCluskey","jobTitle":"Staff Writer","url":"https://time.com/author/megan-mccluskey/"}],"articleSection":"Entertainment","image":[{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/bltc13d147814f8b3ef/698a012622fb853f1ae29a9b/macaulay-culkin-home-alone-photo.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","width":1200,"height":675,"headline":"Macaulay-Culkin-Home-Alone-Photo","caption":"Macaulay Culkin shares his own 'Home Alone' reboot photo","creditText":"Rodin Eckenroth—Getty Images","representativeOfPage":true}],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"/section/entertainment/","name":"Entertainment"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"/tag/celebrities/","name":"celebrities"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":3,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/5647938/macaulay-culkin-home-alone-photo/","name":"At Least Macaulay Culkin's Take on the Home Alone Reboot Has a Festive Touch"}}]}] ```
