Rumors are swirling about a potential new Home Alone sequel, titled Cabin Alone, with claims that Macaulay Culkin will reprise his iconic role as Kevin McCallister. Social media is buzzing with posts sharing a supposed movie poster that features Culkin alongside Catherine O'Hara, who played Kevin’s mother in the original Home Alone films. The posts allege that this "sequel" is set to debut on Disney+ in December 2024.
Despite the excitement among some fans, the truth is Cabin Alone is not a real movie. This widely shared poster is actually a fan-made creation, and there has been no official announcement from Disney+ about a new addition to the Home Alone franchise featuring Culkin and O'Hara.
The Origins of the Cabin Alone Rumor
The confusion began when a Facebook page posted a photo of Culkin and O'Hara standing in front of a Christmas tree, sparking speculation about their reunion for a Home Alone sequel. According to the post, the plot of Cabin Alone centers on Kevin and his mother, who travel to a remote cabin, only to face another round of trouble as familiar antagonists Marv and Harry show up, aiming to cause chaos. The post even hinted that the movie would be released on Disney+ in time for Christmas 2024.
The post has since gone viral, amassing over 50,000 reactions, with many fans enthusiastically believing in its authenticity. However, Disney has not issued any statements supporting this narrative, and neither Culkin nor O'Hara is involved in such a project.
The History of Fake Cabin Alone News
This isn’t the first time fans have been misled by fake Home Alone sequels. A similar rumor circulated in 2023, featuring another fan-made poster that suggested Cabin Alone would revolve around a treasure hunt plot and debut on December 18, 2023. That rumor was debunked as well, highlighting how eager fans are for a potential return of Culkin’s character.
Why Fans Want to See a Home Alone Sequel
The original Home Alone movie premiered in 1990, with Culkin as the mischievous Kevin McCallister, accidentally left behind while his family vacations in France. The movie became a holiday classic, and Culkin reprised his role in Home Alone 2: Lost in New York in 1992. Since then, other sequels have been produced (1997, 2002, 2012, and 2021), but none featured Culkin’s character.
The excitement around a potential sequel involving Culkin reflects fans’ nostalgia for the original films. Previous rumors, like the supposed R-rated Home Alone-inspired movie Stoned Alone produced by Ryan Reynolds, also generated buzz but ultimately never came to fruition.
Bottom Line: Cabin Alone Isn’t Real
In summary, Cabin Alone is not a real movie, and the poster making the rounds on social media is a hoax. While fans might be thrilled by the idea of a new Home Alone sequel with Macaulay Culkin, no such project is in development. The Home Alone movies remain popular on streaming platforms, including Disney+, where fans can revisit Kevin McCallister's iconic holiday adventures.
