He then followed up with another tweet that read, \"Hey @Disney, call me!\"
So far, no details on the new cast or how the reboots will come about.
In the original classic, Culkin played Kevin, a boy who wished his family away, then got what he wanted when they left him behind during a vacation.
While home alone, Kevin had to fight off two burglars, played by Joe Pesci and Daniel Stern. Hilarity ensues.
There was a couple \"Home Alone\" sequels, including the second film set in New York City.
\"Keep the change you filthy animal!\"
