Following news the House of Mouse is working on a reimagining of Home Alone for its Disney+ streaming service, original series star Macaulay Culkin has responded with a pretty depressing update of his own.Culkin tweeted out a photo of himself sitting on a couch in his underwear and using his laptop. "This is what an updated Home Alone would actually look like," he wrote.
Released in 1990, Home Alone saw 8-year-old Kevin McCallister accidentally left behind by his family as they flew to Paris. The movie follows Kevin foiling the plans of Harry and Marv, two burglars attempting to gain entry to his home, using increasingly devious and ingenious traps. Home Alone was a massive box office success and remains a beloved movie. Since the original film released, there have been several spinoffs and sequels. Culkin reprised his role as Kevin in 1992's Lost in New York.
Disney's plans for a reimagining follow the studio's acquisition of assets from 21st Century Fox, which include various Marvel characters, the Avatar series and much, much more.
It's unclear at this time when the reimagining of Home Alone will release and who will helm and star in the project. Disney+ will launch in November.
