Rumored ‘Home Alone’ sequel starring Macaulay Culkin sparks frenzy on social media

Rumors of a new ‘Home Alone’ sequel titled ‘Cabin Alone’ with Macaulay Culkin reprising his iconic role as Kevin McCallister have sparked a lot of interest on social media. Fans were excited when a photo surfaced online on Nov. 3 showing Culkin with on-screen mom Catherine O’Hara, with a caption hinting at a new movie premiering on Disney+ in December. According to the caption, “Kevin McCallister and his mother arrive early at their family’s remote cabin, only to learn that the rest of the family’s flight is delayed. As Marv and Harry target the supposedly empty cabin, Kevin and his mother team up to defend it in the ultimate showdown.”

Despite the excitement, many fans were quick to express skepticism about the photo’s authenticity. Comments on the post noted that it appeared to be digitally altered, with one Facebook user noting, “The amount of people falling for this is amazing,” while another noted, “Ummm. This looks so photoshopped out.” These suspicions were confirmed when the image was traced to a Facebook page titled “YODA BBY ABY”, which explicitly states that it publishes satirical and fictional content.

This post follows Culkin’s own announcement in September of a special US tour called ‘Home Alone: ​​A Nostalgic Night’, as reported by The Sun. Culkin will reportedly visit various cities and screen the original ‘Home Alone’ movie, starting in states like Ohio and Illinois. While some fans eagerly shared their hopes for an actual sequel, social media’s satirical intent has largely dismissed those speculations.
