Macaulay Culkin sets the record straight on Home Alone rumors
Macaulay Culkin reveals which of his Home Alone lines were improvised
- Macaulay Culkin, appearing on the YouTube series Hot Ones, addressed long-standing rumors about his iconic lines in the film Home Alone.
- He confirmed that the famous line, “You guys give up? Or are you thirsty for more?” was scripted and not improvised by him.
- Culkin did, however, improvise another line in the movie: “Because you're a stranger,” said when his character was questioned about his parents at a grocery store.
- He also recounted meeting his 30-year-old stunt double, Larry, and expressed concern for him during a scene involving a collapsing shelf that required multiple takes.
- Culkin revealed he rarely watches Home Alone due to its personal significance, though his fiancée, Brenda Song, persuaded him to watch it during their first Christmas together.
