The actor shares daughter Kinsey, 5, and son Wilder, 3, with wife Jazz Charton
Kieran Culkin's kids have never seen his and his brother Macaulay Culkin's iconic Christmas movie.
On Monday, Dec. 2, the actor, 42, chatted with E! News at the 34th annual Gotham Awards in New York City, where he admitted that he hasn't allowed his two children to watch Home Alone. Culkin is a dad to daughter Kinsey, 5, and son Wilder, 3, whom he shares with wife Jazz Charton, 35.
“There’s still some scary parts,” the dad of two explained. “For the 3-year-old, there’s the tarantula [and] there’s the guy at the end who said, ‘I’m gonna bite off all your fingers.’ That’s scary for a 3-year-old.”

Culkin then shared that 2024 might just be the year for Kinsey and Wilder to finally get in on the film's holiday fun.
“We think they might be ready for Home Alone this year,” he said. “If not, next year.”
In May 2023, the Succession actor's wife shared a few sweet photos of Culkin with their kids on Instagram. In the snaps, Culkin shows his kids around Succession character Logan Roy’s apartment, posing with them on the spiral staircase and hugging his daughter on a chair.
“The alternate reality Roman where he’s a dad but still an a***hole (♥️ ),” Charton teased in the caption.

In January 2024, Culkin revealed that he already wanted to have more children. While accepting the award for outstanding lead actor in a drama series at the 75th Emmy Awards, the actor called out his wife, teasing that he wants more little ones.
“I've been asking for a while," Culkin explained to reporters about why he announced "I want more" while accepting his award for his role in Succession.
"Jazz said, ‘Maybe if you win the Emmy,' ” he continued. “I didn't bring it up for months, and then when I won the Globe, I said, ‘Do you remember what you said?’ And she was like, ‘What? No. What did I say? I don't remember this.’ ”
