Macaulay Culkin Signs With CAA (EXCLUSIVE)

EXCLUSIVE: Actor Macaulay Culkin has signed with CAA.

One of those actors who will be forever linked to an iconic film, Culkin is known for his role as Kevin McCallister in John Hughes’ holiday classic Home Alone, one of only a handful of films in the last 50 years to have remained at #1 at the box office for more than 10 consecutive weeks. Culkin earned a Golden Globe nomination for his work in the first film and returned for a sequel, with both films continuing to drive major viewing nearly four decades after their release. Per Nielsen, the original Home Alone has been the top-viewed holiday film in three of the last four Decembers across linear and streaming.

In addition to the first two Home Alone films, Culkin worked with Hughes on the beloved comedy Uncle Buck, starring opposite John Candy. His previous feature work also includes Saved! and cult-favorite Party Monster, both of which premiered at Sundance, as well as The Good SonMy Girl, and Disney’s Oscar-nominated animated feature Zootopia 2, where he voiced the role of Cattrick Lynxley.

Culkin has most recently been seen on television in Amazon’s Fallout, earning a Critics Choice Super Awards nomination recognizing a villain role in Season 2. He also starred in Season 10 of Ryan Murphy’s American Horror Story and has made appearances in Netflix’s Running Point and HBO’s The Righteous Gemstones.

CAA has been on a tear lately with high-profile signings like Barry Keoghan, Alicia Keys and Anthony Ippolito, the buzzy young star of Amazon MGM’s upcoming I Play Rocky. We most recently reported on their talks to sign Call Her Daddy‘s Alex Cooper away from UTA.

Culkin continues to be represented by Emily Gerson Saines at Untitled and Shelter PR.
