“Home Alone 3” viral trailer brings back Macaulay Culkin’s Kevin
A new viral trailer for “Home Alone 3,” has been doing the rounds on YouTube, with the movie officially titled Home Alone 3: Kevin’s Revenge.
The trailer features a grown-up Kevin McCallister taking on the original villains Harry (Joe Pesci) and Marv (Daniel Stern) in a nostalgic 90s reboot. As expected, fans were quick to praise the trailer.
One fan commented, "It's surprising that Kevin, almost middle-aged, still writes like an 8-year-old." Another fan added, "This film brings back childhood memories. I was really impressed. If only we could go back in time and relive those moments." A third fan requested, "It would be amazing! Please make it happen on the big screen."
The trailer has racked up a total of 2.4 million views since it was released on December 9, 2023. However, there is one small catch to Home Alone 3: Kevin’s Revenge.
Is Home Alone 3: Kevin’s Revenge real?
The movie "Home Alone 3: Kevin’s Revenge" is not a real film, but rather a parody trailer. The actual Home Alone 3 was released in 1997 and did not feature Macaulay Culkin. The real movie follows the story of eight-year-old Alex who defends off thieves attempting to steal a top-secret computer chip hidden in his toy car, which they plan to use to aid a terrorist group.
The Home Alone sequel didn't live up to its predecessors and received a disappointing 32% on Rotten Tomatoes. Many fans preferred the 2024 parody trailer of Home Alone 3 over the actual sequel. "I'd watch this. Looks much better than Home Alone 3," one fan commented on the YouTube trailer.
"I haven't been to the movies in ages, but if they turn this parody into a real film, I'll definitely be first in line at the theater. I promise," added another fan.

Editor's P/S
As a Gen Z netizen, I grew up watching the "Home Alone" movies and they hold a special place in my heart. The news of a potential "Home Alone 3" with Macaulay Culkin reprising his role as Kevin filled me with excitement and nostalgia. The viral trailer looked promising, and I couldn't wait to see Kevin take on the burglars once again.
However, upon learning that the trailer was a parody and not an actual sequel, I felt a mix of disappointment and amusement. While I appreciate the creativity and humor of the parody, I can't help but wish that a real "Home Alone 3" with Macaulay Culkin was in the works. The original movies were such a big part of my childhood, and I would love to see Kevin's story continued in a way that stays true to the spirit of the first two films.
