HOME Alone is a cult Christmas classic, but it's been over three decades since the film came out, and fans are curious as to what the actors are now up to.

A Home Alone reboot, titled Home Sweet Home Alone, premieres on Disney+ on November 12.

Home Alone and the second movie, Lost In New York, made Macaulay Culkin a household name.

At the height of his fame, the now 40-year-old was labeled the most successful child actor since Shirley Temple, but his younger years were troubled.

The actor famously divorced his parents in 1994, at the age of 14, was arrested for possession of marijuana in 2004, and was plagued by rumors of heroin addiction after his eight-year relationship with Mila Kunis ended in late 2010.

He previously addressed the rumors, telling : "I was not pounding six grand of heroin a month", but didn't deny taking the drug.

After stepping out of the spotlight, he's made a return to show business starring in Seth Green's directorial debut Changeland - which is due to be released in 2019.

As well as a starring role in American Horror Story season 10, he is also expected to make a cameo appearance in the Home Alone reboot on Disney+ with sourced claiming he is set to rake in millions.

His love life is also on the up with Macaulay in a relationship with actress Brenda Song since 2017.
