It’s amazing to think that three decades have passed since the release of the holiday classic, Home Alone 2: Lost in New York. To mark this milestone, we’re checking in with the cast to see what they’ve been up to since their iconic performances.

1. Marvin Merchants played by Daniel Stern

At 65 years old, actor Stern has maintained a thriving career. In 2023, he will appear in season 4 of the sci-fi hit For All Mankind. He is also well-known for narrating the beloved series The Wonder Years from 1988 to 1993.

2. Kevin McCallister played by Macaulay Culkin

Macaulay Culkin’s age is now 42, and he welcomed his first child with actress Brenda Song in 2021. He received critical acclaim for his role in the 10th season of American Horror Story: Double Feature.

3. Kate McCallister played by Catherine O’Hara

At 68 years old, O’Hara has played several notable roles since her iconic portrayal as Kevin’s mom. Notably, from 2015 to 2020, she starred in the TV series Schitt’s Creek as a washed-up soap opera actress, a performance that won her an Emmy Award for Outstanding Lead Actress in a Comedy Series.

4. Buzz McCallister played by Devin Ratray

5. Mr. Hector, the Plaza concierge, played by Tim Curry

At 76 years old, Curry’s life took a drastic turn when he suffered a major stroke in 2012, resulting in his reliance on a wheelchair and the need for physical and speech therapy. Since then, the actor has mainly focused on voice acting, but he still sings and makes appearances at fan conventions.

At 79 years old, Pesci ended his retirement a few years ago to star in the 2019 movie The Irishman, a performance that earned him an Oscar nomination.

At 81 years old, Bamman has continued to act in movies and TV series following his iconic role as Uncle Frank in Home Alone 2: Lost in New York. However, it remains his most famous performance to date. Bamman’s last known acting credit was in 2015, in the TV series The Following.
