Macaulay Culkin is reportedly in discussions to return to the "Home Alone" franchise for a new instalment, according to entertainment reports. The actor, who shot to fame playing Kevin McCallister in the original 1990 Christmas comedy, would mark a significant moment for fans of the franchise if the talks progress, given his long absence from the series since its early sequels.

The full details of the reported talks, including Culkin's potential role, the project's timeline or a director attached, were not specified in available reporting. The original "Home Alone" film and its sequels remain among the most popular festive films, and any confirmed involvement from Culkin would be seen as a major development for the franchise's future.
