Fake Home Alone 3 trailer has fans begging for Macaulay Culkin to return

After a trailer for a fake Home Alone 3 film went viral, fans of the beloved movies want Hollywood to make it happen for real.

Are you thirsty for more antics from Kevin McCallister ?

After a trailer for an alleged Home Alone 3 went viral on YouTube, fans of the beloved Christmas franchise began calling for Hollywood to make it happen, reports Decider.

The fake teaser — which was “created by splicing together existing content, adding voiceovers, effects work and heavy editing” — features a grown-up version of Macaulay Culkin as well as other original stars like Joe Pesci, Daniel Stern, Catherine O’Hara and Devin Ratray.

The parody, dubbed Home Alone 3: Kevin’s Revenge, takes place decades after the events of Home Alone 2: Lost in New York as Kevin must engage in one “final showdown” against the Wet Bandits, who were recently released from prison.

The trailer starts with an adult Kevin opening his front door to a red bag containing a card with a photo of Harry (Pesci) and Marv (Stern) that reads, “We’re back little buddy.”

The last time fans were treated to a Home Alone movie was in 1992 when the sequel Lost In New York was released.

In the fake trailer, the Wet Bandits seemingly return to torment Kevin one last time.

When he spots an “Oh-Kay Plumbing and Heating” van across the street, a voiceover says, “This holiday season, it’s time to rediscover a classic. Kevin McCallister is back — except this family is a little weird around Christmas.”

Kevin is then seen telling O’Hara, who played his mum in the original films, “The day you left, I had to defend our house. I was just a kid and you left me home alone,” before later plotting his next set of booby traps for his archnemeses which include “guns, explosives and possibly tarantulas.”

Even Ratray, who played Kevin’s older brother Buzz, makes an appearance as the town cop!

A fake Macaulay Culkin appears in the trailer, which was spliced together using existing content and added voiceovers.

Catherine O’Hara’s likeness also appears in the clip. She played Kevin’s mum in the movies.

While the creators of the trailer made it very clear in the YouTube caption that their film is not real, fans of the original Home Alone flicks took to the comments section to call for a third instalment.

“I haven’t gone to the cinema in a long time, but if they make this parody into a real movie, I’ll grab my money and go to the cinema in an instant. I swear,” one wrote, while another added, “I would looooove it if this was turned into an actual movie. This is so awesome!”

A third person said, “I don’t care if this is only a parody, I totally could see this being an actual movie,” before someone else commented, “Whoever did this parody is a genius, this would’ve been incredible if this ever happen.”

A fourth person noted, “Everyone would go to the theatres for this.”

Another wrote, “This would be amazing if this was an actual movie. These movies are classics, and the actors and actresses that played are so very talented. I hope they truly do make another movie with the original cast.”

Home Alone 3 was released in 1997 to mixed reviews and did not feature actor Macaulay Culkin. It made $79.1 million at the box office.
