Macaulay Culkin & His Dad

Culkin became a household name after starring in Home Alone. It was one of the highest grossing films of all-time, and he became the first child actor to be paid $1 million.

After the success of Home Alone 2: Lost in New York, Culkin’s father and manager, Kit, became well known in Hollywood like his son. However, sources noted that Kit was an outcast among Hollywood executives as he tried to get creative control of his son’s films. It wasn’t long before his pride did him in. Richie Rich was a dud at the box office in 1994 and Kit lost the power he longed for.
