Home Alone, 1990
Home Alone 2: Lost in New York, 1992
The list of actors cast into oblivion would be incomplete without Macaulay Culkin. After Home Alone, he became one of the most successful child actors. He was willingly cast and appeared in Michael Jackson’s music video, Black or White.
The actor’s father, when negotiating his son’s contracts, made the producers hire his other children too. This was a mistake, as Culkin stopped getting parts.
As an adult, Culkin faced too many problems: both his sisters died, he divorced his wife, got addicted to antidepressants, and got a sentence.
Now he works as a DJ, sometimes performing in movies. He also has his own band: The Pizza Underground.
