The Cast Of Home Alone 2: Lost In New York Then And Now

If you ask any child or an adult about Home alone, they would answer that Home Alone was the best kids movie. Until today, the people watch the film as this movie remains the best in the family to watch list.

Part one of the movies, released in 1990, was appreciated by fans worldwide. The fans were anticipating part two of the movie, which was released on 22 November 1992. 

The 1992 American comedy movie was directed by Chris Columbus and written and produced by John Hughes. 

After the release of Home Alone part 1, John Hughes started writing on part two of Home Alone. He finished writing by February 1991, and then the crew began shooting the sequel.

The return of Culkin was confirmed, and the crew was also finalized in a short period of time. 

The movie’s lead actor was a 12-year-old Macaulay Culkin, playing the role of Kelvin McCallister. A mischievous boy who is appreciated for his work by his siblings. 

The movie was released on 20 November 2020 in the United States. Although the movie was highly entertained, the movie had to face some critics. 

Such criticism was the use of violence and similarities with the previous movie. But, the fans ignored the criticism as everyone loved the movie. 

This film grossed 359 million dollars and became the world’s third-highest-grossed film after the bodyguard and Aladdin. 

The film comes up with the exact case but a little different. In part one, we saw that Kelvin McCallister was Home Alone, but in part two, we could see that Kelvin was lost in New York alone for holidays. 

During his days lost in New York, it is seen that his early days alone were appealing, and he was living a lavish lifestyle, but later in the sequel, we see the same harry and marv whom Kelvin has to outsmart them.
