Macaulay Culkin’s breakout role came in 1990’s Home Alone as Kevin McAllister, a role which he reprised in a 1992 sequel. Both films quickly became huge hits, with fans still participating in annual viewings during the holiday season. Sadly, the massive amounts of fame he earned as a kid resulted in him leaving the industry behind for years, distancing himself from the films.

In recent years, the actor has taken on more projects and has opened up more about discussing the film and the impact it had on him as a burgeoning actor. In a surprising move, Culkin has reprised his role as Kevin McAllister for a new Google commercial, where he uses a home assistant to accomplish things he had to work harder to achieve in the original film.
Understandably, fans of the film are loving the actor’s return, sharing their enthusiasm not only at him returning to the series but also how clever the commercial actually is.
