1. > “I was at the premiere, and I was dying laughing. It was the funniest thing I had ever seen,” Culkin added of watching the family comedy for the first time. “I had no idea what the movie was about.”

   > Culkin’s brother Macaulay shot to fame as the star of Home Alone, Kevin McAllister. As a young child, Kieran portrayed Kevin’s cousin Fuller. When Eisenberg, 41, asked Kieran how he could have made it through Home Alone’s shoot without anybody explaining the movie’s storyline, the Succession actor answered, “Drink this Coke, wear the glasses, say the thing that you memorized, look cute and go home.”

2. Kieran was so good in the movie Mighty w Sharon Stone (plays his mum)!

3. Did they even mention his age when that movie came out?

   That would have been a good reason for the “why” of it.

4. “I’m just here to drink Pepsi and pee in the bed”

5. It’s about him drinking too much soda and wetting the bed.

6. Getting squashed by the chair was one of his character’s defining moments.
