Home Alone kids look totally unrecognisable now 32 years after iconic smash hit Christmas movie

'TIS the season to remember the child stars of one of the greatest Christmas films ever.

Thirty-two years on from its original release, Home Alone has lost none of its appeal and still proves a festive hit whenever its shown on the small screen.

Less appealing is how old you'll feel when you see what the film's kids look like now.

First we'll start with the 90s' biggest child star:

Kevin McCallister

Home Alone and its sequel, Lost In New York, made Macaulay Culkin a household name.

At the height of his fame, the now 42-year-old was labelled the most successful child actor since Shirley Temple, but his younger years were troubled.

The actor famously divorced his parents in 1994 and took them to court to block them from controlling his $20million trust fund.

Aged 24, he was arrested for possession of marijuana and was plagued by rumours of heroin addiction after his eight-year relationship with Mila Kunis ended in late 2010.

He previously addressed the rumours, 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 made a return to show business starring in Seth Green's directorial debut Changeland - which was released in 2019.

Macaulay, who has been in a relationship with actress Brenda Song since 2017, had a starring role in American Horror Story season 10, but decided against making a cameo appearance in the Home Alone reboot on Disney+ in 2021.

Megan

Hillary Wolf played Kevin's catty older sister Megan and hasn't acted since Home Alone 2: Lost in New York.

After retiring from acting aged 15 she became an Olympian, representing the United States for Judo in 1996 and 2000.

Now 45, she is a married full-time mum to two sons and a published author of The Not So Zen Mom.

Buzz

Kevin's mean older brother Buzz was played by Devin Ratray, who was just 13 when he starred in his most famous role.

Now 45, he's continued acting - more recently appearing in 2013 films Nebraska, Blue Ruin and R.I.P.D and the 2016 film Master Minds.

He's also in a band called Little Bill and the Beckleys.

Fuller

Macaulay's real-life brother Kieran Culkin played his cousin Fuller in the popular films.

The 40-year-old has continued acting and was nominated for the Best Actor Golden Globe for his breakout role Igby Goes Down, in 2002.

Kieran also appeared in Fargo and previously dated Emma Stone. He married his current partner Jazz Charton in 2013 and they have two children together.

He achieved more critical acclaim for the role of Roman Roy in Succession - a HBO black comedy based on the inner workings of a family of media moguls.

Succession will return for a fourth season early next year.

Jeff

Another of Kevin's horrible siblings, Jeff famously called him "a disease."

Played by Mike C. Maronna, the 45-year-old now works behind the cameras - as a lighting technician on films.

He also does a podcast called Danny and Mike.

Linnie

Angela Goethals, also 45, played Kevin's older sister Linnie - the girl behind the infamous Les Incompetents scene.

She went on to star in Jerry Maguire (1996), Spanglish (2004), and shows like Grey's Anatomy, CSI, and 24.

She married fellow actor Russell Soder in 2005 and the couple has one child together.
