I logged onto Twitter late last night to see a trending topic was the news of a “Home Alone” reboot!
Naturally, I had to read what this was all about. According to the account @getFANDOM, now that The Walt Disney Company has acquired 20th Century Fox, Disney CEO, Bob Iger, announced reboots and reimaginings for Disney+ (Disney’s upcoming streaming service) including: “Diary of a Whimpy Kid”, “Cheaper by the Dozen”, “Night at the Museum”, and “Home Alone”.
Many Christmas tales get retold just as classic Christmas carols are sung by many different singers, but there’s something about certain films that I just can not imagine being told differently. “Home Alone” always felt like one of those ‘untouchable’, for lack of a better word, holiday films.
I mean, who could play Kevin McCallister quite like Macaulay Culkin?
